Anti- stoke Stoke

laser light

Principle of the Raman effect

The Stokes and anti-Stokes scattering is called Raman scattering.

While the signal of the Stokes scattering is only slightly influenced by

temperature, the intensity of the anti-Stokes increases with increasing

local temperature of the light waveguide clearly.

The temperature can thus be determined by comparing the two signals

Stoke and anti-Stoke determined.

Calculated temperature profile

Laser

evaluation

The heating of the fiber increases the lattice vibration,

which leads to a change in backscatter behavior.

A New Standard in Modern Fire Detection

Smart Tunnel KPE, Singapore

City Link Melbourne

National Convention Center, Hanoi, Vietnam

Example: New Beijing Metro Line 5 - a 27.6km north-south subway line, 16.9km

underground, with 22 stations in total

Our technology has been successfully proven in

critical applications like fire detection in road and rail

tunnels, where our systems have been equipped in

worldwide projects with more than 1900 permanent

installations and more than 3800 km of sensor cable

since 1997. As the pioneering force LIOS Technology

has established in co-operation with dominant

partners in fire safety in that application a new

standard in modern fire detection.


Main Applications

Fire detection

Oil and Gas


Pipeline Monitoring




SAGD (Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage), first applied in 2002

(1) Steam is injected into

oil producing reservoir

(2) As the steam

penetrated the sand,

the oil is heated and

becomes less viscous

(3) Assisted by gravity the

oil will flow more

freely through the

formation in the

direction of the

production well where

it is pumped to the

surface.

DTS

fiber

Conditions:

Temperature: 200-300 C

Length: 1000-4000m

Temperature resolution: 1-0,1 C

Frequency of measurement: short-long

Why DTS:

Monitor the casing integrity

Avoid Steam Breakthrough

Save Steam and Energy

Save polluted water


Main Applications

Fire detection

Oil and Gas


Pipeline Monitoring




Temperature Monitoring of Induction Furnaces

Fiber is mounted in the chuck of the furnace

Temperature is measured around the furnace

Data is processed in controller and thickness of the chuck can be seen on GUI

User can judge when chuck needs to be replaced and it is also used as security feature to avoid

breakthrough of cast getting in contact with water cooling system


Main Applications

Fire detection

Oil and Gas


Pipeline Monitoring




Pipeline monitoring

Applicable where temperature difference between medium and ambient temperature is measurable e.g.:

Gas transport

LNG transport

Oil transport

Steam/Hot water transport

DTS fiber is typically mounted below pipeline

Distances up to 60 km (double ended) are possible


DTS Leakage detection


Main Applications

Fire detection

Oil and Gas


Pipeline Monitoring

LNG/LPG leakage detection



Leak Detection in tank annular space

DIN 14620 / EN 1473

Temperature Monitoring in Foundation

NFPA 59A 4.1.7.3 Bund and Containment Monitoring

Pipeline Monitoring

LNG / LPG Storage Facilities – Liquefaction, Re-Gasification


LIOS Cryogenic Plant Monitoring


Main Applications

Fire detection

Oil and Gas


Pipeline Monitoring




Applications in the Electrical Power Business

Underground and submarine cables

Overhead transmission lines

But also: generators and transformers and

superconducting cables
