Opsens Solutions design and manufacture fiber optic sensors for geotechnical related applications. This technology offer many significant advantages: the inert material used to manufacture the sensors are highly resistant to almost any chemicals and high temperatures. Intrinsically safe, they can be used in ATEX environment, and won’t be affected by high voltage, electromagnetic interferences or lightning strike.

These transducers are perfectly tailored for use in harsh environments such as encountered in geotechnical applications. Maintenance free, the sensor will provide accurate and reliable measurements for decades.

A must for permanent installation in geotechnical applications where access to sensor is not possible after deployment.

The sensors are used in a broad range of geotechnical applications: pressure mapping in heap leaching and land filling, structural integrity of mining infrastructure, observation wells, surveillance of concrete structure.They can be buried under meters of ground material, immersed permanently under corrosive fluid, grouted in place, fixed with anchors, spot-welded or embedded in fresh concrete.
