Distributed Sensing System™
 OVA Platform | OBR Platform | | Optical Manufacturing | Software | Tunable Laser | Fiber Optic Switches Luna Technologies’ Distributed Sensing System™ (DSS) is a fiber optic sensing tool for making distributed measurements of temperature and strain. The DSS uses swept-wavelength interferometry to simultaneously interrogate thousands of sensors integrated in a single fiber. These sensors consist of discrete Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) point sensors which can each reflect the same nominal wavelength. As such, the sensors can be fabricated on the draw tower, eliminating the need for individual grating fabrication. The DSS combined with Luna’s sensing fiber provides a tool for distributed sensing with up to 1 cm spatial resolution along the length of the fiber. Highly distributed fiber sensing for strain and temperatureHundreds of meters of sensing length+/- 0.1°C , +/- 1µstrain resolution at 1 cmHigh speed – 5 s acquisition times at high resolutionHigh temperature capabilties - up to 300°CAPPLICATIONS:Structural monitoring for naval, aerospace and civil structures:
Temperature profile monitoring in extreme environments:
Pipeline shift and leak detection Electrical power line sag and temperature monitoring And more...
