Distributed temperature sensing (DTS) measures temperature distribution over the length of an optical fiber cable using the fiber itself as the sensing element. Unlike traditional electrical temperature measurement (thermocouples & RTD), the length of the fiber optic cable is the. Fiber optic temperature sensors are immune to the many environmental effects that compromise other measurement technologies, can be embedded and installed in locations traditional temperature sensors cannot and deliver an unprecedented level of spatial detail and data without sacrificing precision. ther 200-micron fibers from different manufacturers. Each ch nel on a device is calibrated to ST-bushing on each side and require no maintenanc side and - 40 require °C to 120 no °C. Since the measuring chain is a functional combination of optical methods, optical fiber properties, and other photonic elements together with control electronic circuits, it is necessary to nd a suitable compromise between the chosen measurement method, fi measuring range, accuracy, and resolution. A fibre optic cable can be integrated into a structure during the construction or during.
