FS22DI
OPERATION
Notice
For the Standard version of the interrogator the power supply must have a minimum of
30 W, with an output voltage between 12-36 v and must withstand a peak of 4 A for at least
4 ms.
Information
The interrogator must be powered using a power supply source not shared with other
equipment's. A replacement AC-DC power supply unit 24 V (1-NTX001) for the Standard
version or Power Cable (1-KAB274) available with different plug formats can be ordered
directly from HBK.

in
and number
3
exemplifies FC/APC connec
tors.
Attention should be paid to the cleaning of the optical connectors. A dirty connector can
compromise the measurement and will degrade the performance of the interrogator. It is
advisable to frequently clean the connectors using appropriate tools.
FS22 - Industrial BraggMETER DI can have one, four or eight optical channels in parallel.
3.2.3
Ethernet Connection
Connect the Ethernet RJ45 connector directly to a PC using a Ethernet cross-over cable,
or to a network connector using a direct Ethernet cable (in this case, the Industrial Brag
gMETER DI must be in the same subnet as your Local Network).

Maintenance
3.3.1
Ventilation
The FS22DI is an electronic equipment with active ventilation, meaning that it uses fans
for thermal control of the device. Fine dust particles over time can reduce the life time of
optical and electronic components leading to a general degradation of the equipment, so
it is important to prevent dust from entering the device. For that reason the interrogators
should be kept on a controlled environment, far or protected from major dust areas.
