Fiber optic temperature measurement technologies have become essential in predictive asset maintenance and asset condition monitoring across various fields such as electrical asset management, transformer monitoring systems, datacenter monitoring, wind turbine condition monitoring, high voltage switchgear condition monitoring, and oil and gas industry asset management. This article explores three primary fiber optic temperature measurement technologies: Fluorescence-based sensors, Ҳисси ҳарорат тақсимшуда (ДТС), ва Grating Fiber Bragg (ФБГ) сенсорҳо, detailing their principles, applications, and advantages.
1. Fluorescence-based Fiber Optic Temperature Sensors
Fluorescence-based fiber optic sensors measure temperature by detecting changes in fluorescence decay times, enabling accurate monitoring of transformers hot spot, GIS electrical systems, high voltage switchgear, and transformer dissolved gas analysis (DGA). They offer immunity to EMI interference, making them ideal for harsh environments and critical asset monitoring solutions.

3. Grating Fiber Bragg (ФБГ) Temperature Sensors
FBG sensors measure temperature through shifts in reflected wavelengths due to temperature-induced fiber expansion. The sensors offer precise, point-specific measurements suitable for partial discharge monitoring, wind turbine monitoring, circuit breaker monitoring, and critical IoT temperature monitoring applications.
- Wind turbine condition monitoring systems
