- Our services range from complete system design to sensor calibration and technology consulting.
PIDS Applications
Fence/Wall Monitoring
- Installation in fences or walls is simple.
- Our system can integrate with existing security systems.
Ground Monitoring
For different terrains: soil, sand, and gravel.
The benefits of fiber optic sensors
Optical fibers serve a similar role to structures and cities that the nervous system does in the human body. Nerves provide accurate and real-time feedback about the condition of our bodies. Similarly, optical fibers communicate the ‘feeling’ of a physical structure, constantly reading all changes and any degradation.
Why Fiber Optics
Lifetime
Sensor / cable lifetime >20 years
Passive Sensor
No electrical power at the measurement point
Long distance
Remote monitoring (50 km and more)
High sensitivity and accuracy
At sensing point Insensitive lead in to reduce disturbances
Harsh and explosive environments
Resistant to corrosion, lightning, etc.
Immune to EMI
Electromagnetic interference
Systems
Zone based
- Zone-based (up to 500m perimeter length/zone) and 16 zones/unit
- Total perimeter length up to 8 km/unit (depending on fence type)
- Cost-effective zone-based solution
- Fence mounted and buried sensors (carpet)
- Ground: sensitive only directly on top of the carpet
Quasi-distributed
- Pinpoint – Quasi-distributed monitoring (+- 5m local resolution)
- Perimeter length max. 1,6km / unit Cost-effective up to 7 km trip (depending on fence type)
- Well established platform used for 100+ Fiber optic sensing projects since 2010
- Fence mounted sensor system
- Additional monitoring of utility holes/gates with the same system
- Different sensitivity and data analysis for each section
Distributed
- Pinpoint – Distributed monitoring (+- 5m local resolution)
- Two versions up to 20km or 50 km length, and therefore a cost-effective solution compared to DAS systems
- Fence/wall-mounted preferred
- Different sensitivity levels adjusting to environmental conditions of each section (HW & SW)
- Full sensitivity and bandwidth throughout the entire fiber length
- Globally established and a trusted solution since 2011
End-to-End Solutions
Optional Services
- Technical Support and Training
- Full Package Solutions
- Rental or Buying Options
Cabinet, Utility Hole, and Gate Monitoring
ADVANTAGES
- The monitoring ensures high access and availability.
- The sensor itself is entirely passive.
- Event identification recognizes the opening itself and the attempt (vandalism, vehicle impact, and others).
- Integration into Customer Network Management System (NMS).
