Optical Distributed Sensor Interrogators ODISI 7100
20.03.2024
With distributed measuring fiber-optic sensor systems, no sensors need to be installed into the fiber. Rather, light backscattered by the fiber material itself is evaluated in order to obtain the desired information. These systems are based on the evaluation of Rayleigh scattering and enable the recording of temperature profiles along the fiber at resolutions in the millimeter range and measuring distances of up to 100 m. This means that practically every point on the fiber becomes a sensor. Conventional methods required hundreds or thousands of conventional point sensors with associated cables and immense installation effort.
The ODISI7100 series for temperature and strain measurement allows fiber lengths of up to 300 m, a maximum of 200 m supply line and 100 m sensor length (guided in capillaries/protective tube), a maximum of 8 channels (hundreds of thousands of measuring points in total), a minimum measuring point distance of 0.65 mm , a maximum measuring speed of 250 Hz, a standard range for temperature measurement from -40 to +300 °C with a maximum resolution of +/- 0.1 °C or a strain measuring range of +/- 12,000 microstrain for strain measurement with a resolution of +/- 1 microstrain.
