Lynx™ — Integrated Hybrid DTS/FBG System
SensorTran’s Lynx™ family of fiber optic-based sensors offers Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) and Fiber-Bragg Grating (FBG) point sensing capabilities in one package, with one interface. By marrying the performance of SensorTran’s Gemini™ DTS platform and Micron Optics’ Bragg Interrogator, customers now have access to a fully integrated, highly reliable sensing solution. For the first time, projects requiring distributed temperature, pressure, strain, and/or vibration measurements can be completed by deploying a single system. Lynx™ is compatible with a wide range of third-party Bragg Grating-based sensors. FBG sensors can be deployed in either single point or multipoint schemes. Lynx™ is ideal for applications such as:
- production monitoring in O&G wells (DTS and single/multipoint pressure sensing)
- joints on power cables (distributed and multiple-point temperature sensing)
- oil-filled cables (DTS and multiple point pressure sensing)
- subsea risers and equipment (DTS, strain, pressure, and vibration)
- structures such as bridges and dams (DTS, vibration, and strain).
