Fiber Optic Cable Detection

Up to 4 km of sensor cable may be installed in the area to be protected.

Fiber optic cable detection. Increase confidence in alarm reliability. Fiber optic pipeline solutions fiops is committed to helping our clients reduce environmental risk and increase operational safety. Fiber optic linear heat detection provides a continuous complete solution that traditional thermography services cannot provide. 4 lhd units monitor the cable trays of all mv electrical power cables for hotspots or potential fires alerting facility managers with automatically generated alarms.

With sensornet s distributed temperature sensing dts system the fiber optic itself is the sensor and therefore great care must be taken to ensure the integrity of the fiber optic and the optical path the quality of the fiber is essential and typically requires testing to specifications higher than the telecommunications standards. Connecting by network additional controllers provide unlimited cover. The sensor cable is certified fibre optic cable installed in a similar manner to electrical based linear heat detection technology. Deploying raysense fiber optic intrusion detection system provides reliable perimeter security for up to 100 km 62 miles through a single fiber optic cable detecting and locating within 6 meters 20 feet over the entire perimeter.

Best described as a continuous linear thermometer that actively reports temperature readings fiber optic linear heat detection is immune to emi and rfi and can be configured to offer programmable alarm criteria along the length of the cable. The beginning of the fiber optic linear heat detection cable is fusion spliced to an e2000 pigtail for connection within the controller enclosure. The cable can be connected in a loop or alternatively as a one or two channel single ended system. Fiber optic cables represent the future of linear heat detection and it s available now.

We do this by providing a complete solution for industrial monitoring including installation optimization calibration early detection asset management and protection data communications it services. A fiber optic leak detection system consists of the fiber optic cable a light source such as a laser timing systems and control logic. Daisy chaining additional controllers provide unlimited reach. With the optasense pipeline leak detection system the fiber optic cable acts a fully distributed sensor that offers thousands of detection points along the entire pipeline capable of pinpointing the location of a leak within 10m in real time.

For single ended configurations similar to class b the end of the fiber optic linear heat detector is terminated with a 65 foot 20m service loop and then capped.
