After being irradiated with light of a specific wavelength, fluorescent substances emit fluorescence when electrons transition from a low energy level to an excited state at a high energy level, and then return to a low energy level. After the excitation stops, the fluorescence decays exponentially, and its decay time constant is temperature dependent. By measuring the decay time, i.e. the fluorescence lifetime, the temperature at the measurement point can be obtained. system composition Fluorescent fiber optic (including sensing head): converts the temperature information of the monitoring part of the temperature probe into an optical signal and transmits it to the fiber optic temperature transmitter. The probe size is small and can be directly installed on the measured point, with accurate temperature measurement and rapid response. Tail fiber is soft and sturdy, with advantages such as high transmission bandwidth, stable signal, anti electromagnetic interference, anti bending, high impact strength, and fast connection.

[embed]https://youtu.be/kLBOxbpd5ko[/embed] In the medical field, fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement has become the ideal choice for precisely monitoring human core body temperature and critical temperatures of medical equipment due to its characteristics of precision, safety, and anti-interference. It plays a particularly important role in scenarios with extremely high temperature monitoring requirements, such as surgery and intensive care. Precise Monitoring of Human Core Body Temperature, Supporting Critical Care and Surgical Management Human core body temperature (such as intracranial and intra-abdominal temperatures) is an important indicator reflecting vital signs. Minor changes may indicate disease deterioration or surgical risks. Traditional temperature measurement methods (such as axillary and oral temperature measurement) are easily affected by environmental factors with limited accuracy, while fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement can overcome these limitations. Invasive Precise Temperature Measurement Fluorescent fiber optic probes can have diameters as small as 0.1mm, enabling minimally invasive implantation into deep human tissues (such as brain tissue, intravascular, and abdominal cavity) for direct core temperature measurement. The error can be controlled within ±0.1℃, far superior to traditional surface temperature measurement accuracy (errors often exceed ±0.5℃). For example, in neurosurgery, strict monitoring of brain tissue temperature is required to avoid ischemic injury. Fluorescent fiber optics can provide real-time precise data feedback, guiding doctors to adjust surgical plans. Electromagnetic Interference Resistance Advantages ICU and operating rooms contain numerous electronic devices (such as ventilators, electrocautery units, and MRI machines). Traditional electronic temperature measurement devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference, causing data distortion. Fluorescent fiber optics transmit through optical signals, completely unaffected by electromagnetic environments. They can work stably in strong magnetic field environments such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), ensuring the reliability of temperature measurement data. Ensuring Safe Operation of Medical Equipment, Preventing Potential Risks The stable operation of medical equipment directly relates to patient safety. Abnormal temperatures in critical components of some equipment may cause failures or even safety accidents. Fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement can provide reliable monitoring in such scenarios. Extracorporeal Circulation Equipment Monitoring In cardiac surgery, the heat exchanger of extracorporeal circulation machines requires precise control of blood temperature. Fluorescent fiber optics can be embedded inside heat exchangers to monitor the temperature at the interface between water and blood contact in real-time, ensuring smooth blood heating or cooling processes and avoiding red blood cell destruction due to sudden temperature changes. High-Frequency Electrocautery and Laser Equipment Temperature Measurement High-frequency electrocautery units and laser treatment devices generate localized high temperatures during operation. Excessive temperatures may burn patient tissues or damage the equipment itself. Fluorescent fiber optic probes can be installed near treatment heads to monitor output temperature in real-time. Once safety thresholds are exceeded, they can trigger equipment protection mechanisms to stop operation promptly, reducing medical risks. Temperature Monitoring in Special Environments, Expanding Application Scenarios In some special medical scenarios, higher safety and adaptability requirements are placed on temperature measurement equipment. The characteristics of fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement enable it to excel in these applications. Hypothermia Therapy Monitoring In the treatment of brain injury ...
[embed]https://youtu.be/NiQoFOoTOA0[/embed] The safe and stable operation of dry-type transformers highly depends on precise temperature monitoring. Fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement technology has become the ideal choice in this field due to its characteristics of anti-interference, high safety, and high precision. It can effectively address challenges such as strong electromagnetic environments and complex structures during transformer operation, providing critical protection for reliable equipment operation. Why is Fluorescent Fiber Optic Temperature Measurement Suitable for Dry-Type Transformers? Dry-type transformers, due to the absence of insulating oil, are widely used in high-rise buildings, subways, hospitals, and other locations with extremely high safety requirements. The winding temperature directly relates to insulation life and operational safety. Traditional temperature measurement methods (such as thermocouples and infrared sensors) have obvious shortcomings in terms of electromagnetic interference resistance, installation flexibility, and measurement accuracy, while fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement perfectly addresses these deficiencies. The core principle of fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement is: utilizing the temperature effect of fluorescent materials (temperature changes alter fluorescence lifetime or intensity), transmitting fluorescent signals through optical fibers, and then converting them to temperature data through demodulation modules. The optical fiber itself is non-conductive and corrosion-resistant, fundamentally avoiding the inherent defects of traditional electrical temperature measurement. Core Advantages Analysis of Fluorescent Fiber Optic Temperature Measurement 1. Superior Electromagnetic Interference Resistance, Adapting to Complex Electrical Environments Dry-type transformers generate strong electromagnetic fields and high-frequency interference during operation. Traditional electrical signal temperature measurement components (such as thermocouples and thermal resistors) are susceptible to interference, causing data drift or even measurement failure. Fluorescent fiber optics transmit data through optical signals, and the fiber itself is an insulator, unaffected by electromagnetic induction, ground loops, etc. It can maintain measurement stability in 10kV-35kV high-voltage environments. Compared to infrared temperature measurement (easily affected by dust and water vapor causing signal attenuation), optical fibers can be directly embedded inside windings, unaffected by external environmental interference, providing higher data reliability. 2. High Safety, Eliminating Potential Electrical Risks The windings and core of dry-type transformers are at high voltage potential. If temperature measurement components contain conductive parts, they may cause insulation breakdown or short-circuit risks. The sensor probes and transmission optical fibers of the fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement system are all made of non-metallic materials with no conductive paths, eliminating electrical safety hazards from the source. Even in extreme cases where winding overheating causes insulation aging, optical fiber materials will not burn or release harmful substances, meeting the fire safety requirements of high-security locations. 3. High Precision + Wide Range, Covering Critical Temperature Measurement Points The winding hot spot temperature of dry-type transformers is a key indicator for judging insulation aging (such as the maximum allowable temperature of 155℃ for Class F insulation), requiring temperature measurement error ≤±1℃. Fluorescent fiber optic temperature measurement can achieve accuracy of ±0.5℃ with a range covering -50℃~200℃, fully meeting the full operating condition temperature monitoring needs of dry-type transformers from startup to overload. Traditional infrared temperature measurement, due to non-contact measurement requirements, cannot accurately capture ...

[embed]https://youtu.be/itauRaqItZ4[/embed] Fiber optic temperature measurement of oil immersed transformer windings is an advanced temperature monitoring technology. The following is a related introduction: Principle of Temperature Measurement Fluorescent fiber temperature measurement: using the sensitivity of fluorescent substances in the fiber to temperature changes to measure temperature. When the fiber optic thermometer sends an inquiry light pulse to the sensor, the fluorescent substance absorbs the light energy and emits fluorescence. The intensity and lifetime of fluorescence are related to temperature, and the thermometer calculates the temperature value by detecting these characteristics. Distributed fiber optic temperature measurement: Based on the principles of optical time domain reflection technology and Raman scattering effect, laser transmission in the fiber will generate backward Raman scattering light, whose intensity changes with the temperature of the fiber. By measuring the intensity of backward Raman scattering and using optical time domain positioning technology, distributed measurement of temperature along the fiber optic line can be achieved. Composition of temperature measurement system Fiber optic sensors: are key components for temperature measurement, such as fluorescent fiber optic sensors or distributed fiber optic sensors, used to sense changes in winding temperature.

There are primarily two types of fiber optic temperature sensors: Fluorescence Fiber Optic Temperature Measurement This method utilizes the temperature characteristics of fluorescent materials. Fluorescence fiber optic probes are installed at heat-prone areas such as switchgear contacts. Light from an excitation source is absorbed by the fluorescent material, which then emits fluorescence carrying temperature information.
