1.2 Sensor connection
The FOTS100 is compatible with all TSD180 series Opsens’ GaAs-type of sensors or
transducers for measuring temperature namely the OTG-M series. The fiber-optic
connector provided with the OTG-M sensors is a ST-type connector. Remove the
protective cap of the FOTS100 ST mating and engage the sensor connector with the
orientation key properly oriented (Figure 2). It is a good practice to clean the sensor
connector prior to connect it to the signal conditioner. See the TSD180/181 Fiber-Optic
Cleaning Guide for further information on how to clean fiber-optic connectors.
NOTE: always replace the protective dust cap on the mating when there is no
sensor connected. Always replace the protective dust cap on the sensor fiber-
optic connector when not in used
