`
`μFORS-36m / -1
`Fiber Optic Rate Sensors
`
`Designed to meet
`the requirements of
`a wide range of
`air, land and sea
`applications.
`
`Northrop Grumman LITEF's Fiber Optic Rate
`Sensor μFORS is designed to meet the require-
`ments of a wide range of air, land and sea
`applications.
`
`Using the latest technology, it provides com-
`pensated angle or angular rate outputs via the
`asynchronous or the synchronous digital IBIS
`(Intelligent Bus for Inertial Sensors) interface.
`
`With small volume, low weight and small power
`consumption, the μFORS can be integrated into
`many applications, thereby reducing system
`complexity and cost.
`
`Free from effects of gravity induced errors, and
`with no moving parts, Northrop Grumman
`LITEF's μFORS is insensitive to shock and
`vibration. It offers high reliability without the
`need for periodic maintenance.
`
`All μFORS provide the
`advantages of the closed
`loop principle:
`(cid:115) High dynamic range
`(cid:115) High scale factor linearity
`(cid:115) Excellent performance under high vibration
`
`levels
`Customer advantages
`of the μFORS are:
`(cid:115) Integrated electronics
`(cid:115) Standard digital interface
`(cid:115) Flexible, programmable digital interface
` (range, data rate, resolution etc.)
`(cid:115) Output of temperature compensated data
`(cid:115) Small size, low weight, low power
` consumption
`(cid:115) Low cost
