PyrOeye

Plastic optical fibre (POF) is used to form a loop through an array of PyrOnodes. The continuity of this light path is monitored and, if ever broken, signals an over temperature event. 

• ​1mm diameter
• Maximum loop distance 200m. 

PyrOeye is a lens system that enables the light beam to jump between POF cores 

• Gap distances of several meters achievable 
  
• Eliminates tracking risk in medium and high voltage applications
• Allows robust, interference free monitoring on rotating parts e.g synchronous machine rotor pole interconnections

POF Splicing kits are used to repair a cut POF loop

• Fibre ends are cleanly cut with a sharp blade
• Fibre is then joined in a crimp or glue splice
