Fiber-Optic Pyrometer with Optically Powered Switch for Temperature Measurements

Abstract: We report the experimental results on a new infrared fiber-optic pyrometer for very localized and high-speed temperature measurements ranging from 170 to 530 °C using low-noise photodetectors and high-gain transimpedance amplifiers with a single gain mode in the whole temperature range. We also report a shutter based on an optical fiber switch which is optically powered to provide a reference signal in an optical fiber pyrometer measuring from 200 to 550 °C. The tests show the potential of remotely powering vi… Show more

“…The PF GI-POF with 120µm core diameter system started melting at around 528 mW of optical power injected into the fiber, in agreement with [6]. The PoF prototypes fed various remote sensor nodes in hazardous environments [5] and IoT applications [8], or an optical switch in a pyrometer [10].…”

“…Absorption of such radiation causes an increase in electrical conductivity of the material and corresponding decrease in the detector resistance. This effect enables the system to measure radiation reaching the detector [8].…”

“…See http://www.ieee.org/publications_standards/publications/rights/index.html for more information. An additional element, an optical switch that is powered by light, is used in [15] along with low-noise photodetectors and high-gain transimpedance amplifiers, to compensate for undesirable offsets in the receiving signal, but with the same limited dynamic range and spatial resolution of [14], [22]. With the data provided in those works we estimate the measuring area, related with the spatial resolution, of each pyrometer, it being in the range of 77 to 1010 m at a distance of 25 m.…”
