Description
The OTG-T+ is paired with an all-dielectric fiber-optic connector which can be placed almost anywhere in the transformer. This concept permits the use of short length of OTG-T+ sensor cable. This unique connectivity solution eliminates the cumbersome and hazardous operation of cable spooling and handling during installation.
Opsens’ OTG-T+ fiber optic temperature sensor offers the highest reliability and robustness in the industry. It uses the well proven technique based on the temperature-dependent bandgap of GaAs crystal as the temperature transduction mechanism. Its sensing GaAs crystal encapsulated in uniform protective tubing provides robustness and small size and ensures full protection.
The OTG comes with a specially designed fiber optic cable for oil wetting in the transformer. Well-defined round openings evenly spaced along the cable ensure proper oil wetting and provide the best cable strength. In fact, this design offers cable strength five times greater than the slit design used by other manufacturers.
The OTG-T+ is offered with our standard 62.5/125 micron optical fiber or with 200/230 micron optical fiber.
