Our EuroBrite™ lineup outdoes the competition in so many ways. With more features at a competitive price point, there’s no better value in machine vision lighting:
-
Complete built-in control for continuous and strobe modes.
-
Adaptive Power™, a feature of the EuroBrite™ lighting controller, utilizes an onboard thermistor to maximize light output in continuous mode.
-
Adaptive Overdrive,™ another feature of the EuroBrite™ lighting controller, provides a maximal output pulse in strobe mode regardless of the exposure period.
-
IP67 sealed enclosure suitable for washdown environments.
-
Rugged construction that has been tested to withstand over 1000lb.
-
Industrial grade LEDs providing high-intensity surface illumination of 65klux.
-
Daisy chain up to 4 for a combined length of 24”.

The os3610 Surface Mount Strain Sensor measures average strain over the length of the gage while providing integrated temperature compensation.
The os3610, based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) technology and intended exclusively for surface mounting, is available in gage lengths of 25 and 100 cm. Each end of the os3610 is attached to the structure via rigid brackets that are either welded, bolted, epoxied, or grouted to the surface of concrete, rock, steel, composite, or other structure.
A rugged, stainless steel body, ruggedized cables and optional connector protection fittings make the os3610 suitable for harsh environments. Two FBGs are well protected inside the os3610 body. One FBG measures strain, and the other provides for integrated temperature compensation. Since there are no epoxies holding the fiber to the carrier, longterm stability is ensured by design.
In side-by-side comparisons with vibrating-wire and foil strain gages, the os3610 is equally sensitive and accurate, while providing 100 times more fatigue life. The os3610 strain gage is qualified for use in harsh environments and delivers the many advantages inherent to all FBG based sensor.
This sensor can be used alone or in series as part of an FBG sensor array. Installation and cabling for such arrays is much less expensive and less cumbersome than comparable electronic gage networks.
