Fiber Optic Systems for examinations of combustion engines
FOS Fiber Optic Systems
Fiber Optic Systems are used for optical examinations of internal combustion engines.
The system includes optical probes with customized dimensions, the high sensitive optoelectronic converter and the controller for synchronization and data acquisition. For example, with the Fiber Optic Spark Plug FOSP the optical access to the combustion chamber is given without any changes at the engine.
Especially designed for the investigation of
- Pre-ignition
- Knocking
- Flame propagation
The System is controlled by the OCA Controller unit. The OCA Controller provides synchronous recording of the optical signals and combustion analysis data. The flame radiation is measured optically and transmitted to the OCA Controller via a light amplifier. The integrated software generates a graphic display of combustion signal. Based on predefined parameters the users gets benefits from the precise insights of the engine. You are able to detect phenomena such as knocking, sooting combustion or pre-ignition. The system can be used on multi-cylinder series engines, single-cylinder research engines, constant volume chambers. There are a large number of sensor types and variations available for different applications. Of course, these can also be adapted at any time.
