Long-term, trouble-free protection for your data logger
Visão Geral
The FC100 is typically used with the SG000 Strike Guard Lightning Detector as part of the CS110 and LW110 lightning warning systems. The SG000 outputs its data signal via fiber-optic cable, and the FC100 is installed at the end of the fiber-optic cable and before the data logger. The FC100 converts a fiber-optic data signal into an RS-232 signal for a lightning-proof connection between the sensor and the data logger.
The FC100 can also be used as an RS-232 link between two serial devices (data logger to PC) separated by less than 100 m (328 ft). The FC100 is a DCE device so a null modem cable will be needed between it and a data logger.

-
Short-fiber runs sometimes pass too much signal. The solution is to pull the fiber part way out of the holding ferrule.
-
The data transmission fibers are fragile and cannot be bent or broken. Consequently, the fibers need to be handled with care and protected inside a conduit (usually PVC).
-
The FC100 provides instant termination—no connectors, crimping, polishing, or epoxy.
-
With a good signal strength, 1200 to 19,200 bps.
-
The 12 Vdc power supply keeps the signal from dropping when large data packets are transmitted.
-
100 m (330 ft) with a 1.0 mm poly-methylmethacrylate (PMMA) core with a PVC or polyethylene jacket, simplex or duplex; up to 1 km with a higher-grade fiber.
-
Direct communication between two RS-232 serial devices, such as a PC to a data logger or a data logger to a serial sensor.
-
The FC100 is designed for lightning-proof and lightning-safe serial communication. Because the FC100 offers PMMA or glass fibers that are not conductive, electrical surges (such as those caused by lightning) cannot travel between the modems.
-
The FC100 is required to communicate with the SG000 Strike Guard Lightning Sensor. The SG000 is an option for the CS110 Electric Field Sensor and the LW110 Lightning Warning System.
-
They provide lightning-proof and lightning-safe serial communication that eliminates the need for transient suppression devices.
