This solution is used for detecting and monitoring faults or events using values such as the temperature, noise, vibrations, stress or strain depending on the conditions of the installation and the type of application.
The system is comprised of:
- OPTRAL Fibre Optic sensor cable.
- Interrogator unit: the function of this unit is to collect the data detected by the sensor cable and is designed to operate with technology that is suitable for the type of measurement that is to be taken as well as for each specific application.
- OMonitor Software Platform: this unit is used for viewing and monitoring the events that are detected.
Technologies used:
- DTS (Distributed Temperature Sensing).
- DAS (Distributed Acoustic Sensing).
- DSS (Distributed Strain Sensing).
- FBG (Fiber Bragg Grating).
Each application requires different sensor cable characteristics that allow detecting, with maximum sensitivity, the required value while taking into account the conditions of the installation and operation of the system.

Advantages
- This is ideal for applications where the specific point of the event is unknown (a gas or fluid leak, an intrusion or a fire).
- It drastically reduces the operational expenses of using conventional multi-point detection systems (operators, energy consumption, management of spare parts, obsolescence of components, etc.).
- The investment costs are amortised thanks to the preventive detection of events such as leaks, landslides, collapsing of a bridge, overloading of an electrical power line, increase in the temperature of a mine, etc.
- They are not affected by noise or electromagnetic interferences.
- They cover a wide dynamic range in terms of long geographic distances.
- Since this is a dielectric sensor, it is ideal for guaranteeing the safety in environments where sparks may be generated.
