06. Fiber Optic Hydrophone ONDA HFO-690

Fiber Optic Hydrophone ONDA HFO-690 A hydrophone for high pressure applications

The HFO-690 is the latest generation optical fiber hydrophone designed to uniquely support high intensity fields for applications such as HIFU (High Intensity Focus Ultrasound), providing both acoustic pressure and temperature measurements simultaneously.

More details

The HFO-690 is the latest generation optical fiber hydrophone designed to uniquely support high intensity fields for applications such as HIFU (High Intensity Focus Ultrasound), providing both acoustic pressure and temperature measurements simultaneously. Whereas traditional piezoelectric hydrophones were susceptible to damage, the HFO can withstand acoustic pressures up to 500 MPa. Furthermore, the HFO system was designed to be easy to use. Operation with a visible wavelength makes the alignment process simple and safer to use.
