ROBUST AND STABLE ALL-SAPPHIRE FIBER OPTIC PRESSURE SENSOR FOR ACCURATE MEASUREMENTS IN EXTREME TEMPERATURE
(UP TO 300 °C)


Use with Opsens’ OTP-M fiber optic physiological* temperature sensor

 


•  High operating temperature
(+ 300 °C)

•  Excellent accuracy and long term stability

•  High resistance in hydrogen rich environment

• High resistance in corrosive environments

•  EMI/RFI immunity and intrinsically safe

•  Robust packaging, low thermal sensitivity

 


The OPP-W is a revolutionary fiber optic pressure and temperature sensor resulting from the combination of OPSENS advanced expertise in fiber optic sensor technology and INFICON market-leading pressure sensor technology. The OPP-W, which uses monocrystalline sapphire, offers superior performances, robustness, durability, hydrogen and corrosion resistance compared to conventional sensors.

The blending of OPSENS WLPI signal conditioning technology† with INFICON sapphire pressure technology delivers long term accuracy, durability, low drift and high fidelity pressure measurements in the harshest environments such as oil and gas, EMI, RFI, high voltage, combustive/explosive and high temperature.

The OPP-W is a Fabry-Perot interferometer–based, fiber optic pressure and temperature sensor constructed from highly durable and corrosion resistant sapphire material. Designed especially for demanding hazardous environments, it is encased in robust inconel 718 housing for applications requiring a rugged sensor. The OPP-W delivers real-time, in-situ and continuous monitoring of both downhole pressure and temperature.

The OPP-W pressure sensor is used in conjunction with Opsens WellSens signal conditioner surface unit and can be offered with a variety of connector and cable options to suit your specific application.
