  2. Distributed temperature sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_temperature...

    Temperatures are recorded along the optical sensor cable, thus not at points, but as a continuous profile. A high accuracy of temperature determination is achieved over great distances. Typically the DTS systems can locate the temperature to a spatial resolution of 1 m with accuracy to within ±1 °C at a resolution of 0.01 °C.

  3. Distribution Transformer Monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_Transformer...

    A pole top (above ground) or pad mount (below ground) transformer commonly powers anywhere from 5-8 homes in the US and is the last voltage transition in stepping down voltage before it gets to the home or business. [1] The conventional placement of Distributed Temperature Monitoring (DTM) devices is typically observed at the terminals of ...

  4. List of temperature sensors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_temperature_sensors

    The integrated circuit sensor may come in a variety of interfaces — analogue or digital; for digital, these could be Serial Peripheral Interface, SMBus/I 2 C or 1-Wire.. In OpenBSD, many of the I 2 C temperature sensors from the below list have been supported and are accessible through the generalised hardware sensors framework [3] since OpenBSD 3.9 (2006), [4] [5]: §6.1 which has also ...

  5. Fiber-optic sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_sensor

    [8] [9] The fiber-optic sensor is well suited for this environment as it functions at temperatures too high for semiconductor sensors (distributed temperature sensing). Optical fibers can be made into interferometric sensors such as fiber-optic gyroscopes , which are used in the Boeing 767 and in some car models (for navigation purposes).

  6. Wireless sensor network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_sensor_network

    Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) refer to networks of spatially dispersed and dedicated sensors that monitor and record the physical conditions of the environment and forward the collected data to a central location. WSNs can measure environmental conditions such as temperature, sound, pollution levels, humidity and wind.

  7. Resistance thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_thermometer

    Time response is measured by immersing the sensor in water moving at 1 m/s (3.3 ft/s) with a 63.2% step change. Size A standard RTD sheath is 3.175 to 6.35 mm (0.1250 to 0.2500 in) in diameter; sheath diameters for thermocouples can be less than 1.6 mm (0.063 in).

  8. Distributed acoustic sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_acoustic_sensing

    The optical pulse is attenuated as it propagates along the fiber. For a single mode fiber operating at 1550 nm, a typical attenuation is 0.2 dB/km. [1] Since the light must make a double pass along each section of fiber, this means each 1 km causes a total loss of 0.4 dB. The maximum range of the system occurs when the amplitude of the ...
