Company record
Optical Scientific, Inc. develops intelligent optical flow sensors, optical weather identifiers, and weather stations. Its portfolio comprises optical flow sensors (OFS), present‑weather or visibility sensors, all‑precipitation gauges, optical rain gauges, hail and ice‑pellet sensors, and long‑baseline optical anemometers (LOA). The products are offered in FAA‑certified and non‑FAA‑certified configurations and can be integrated into networked or standalone systems. Engineered to operate in demanding flow environments, the sensors tolerate high temperatures, variable opacity, elevated dust levels, and the presence of entrained or suspended liquid droplets. Typical deployments include thermal oxidizers, wet scrubbers, flare stacks, incinerators, sulfur recovery units, catalytic crackers, glass furnaces, carbon‑capture installations, hazardous wind‑tracking setups, and wake‑vortex detection applications.
