Abstract In this contribution an innovative, full analog, fiber optic sensors (FOS) interrogator is designed which, being fully compatible with the 4-20 mA standard of the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), enable the integration of the FOS technology in safety framework, such as the Detector Safety System (DSS) of the LHC Experiments. It is composed by a full analog electrical circuitry, capable to directly transduce the signal coming from the arrayed waveguide grating (AWG), into a monotonic electrical current in the range of 4-20mA. In a first experimental analysis, a temperature of 50°C was detected, exhibiting an output trend which can be fitted with a 3rd order polynomial equation over the whole range. Furthermore, in a reduced range of 20°C, the trend behaves linearly. The proposed system has the potential to be fully integrated in the DSS of the LHC experiments. Indeed, a validation on field is foreseen in the framework of the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment DSS.
