Data Centers
Electric Utilities
Opterro’s distributed optical sensing systems and solutions can be used for electricity generators and electricity distribution from mainstream natural gas-fired, combined-cycle, combustion turbine, and steam turbine AC generators.
Manufacturing
Ideal for extreme environments of semiconductor and solar manufacturing process equipment, various industrial furnaces, as well as environmental monitoring and control of semiconductor microelectronics and solar photovoltaics factories. With the use of our sensors, manufacturing can do prognostic health management (PHM), and conditional based maintenance (CBM) to predict the future health and performance of equipment and systems.
Smart Infrastructure
Ideal for Industrial Internet of Things sensors that are distributed over distances across buildings, cities and transport networks for the collection and analysis of data pertinent to reliable and efficient operations. Our sensing systems are also ideal for supporting the development of “Smart Cities.”
Renewable Energy
Fiber optic sensing provides real-time monitoring and data analysis that can improve the overall efficiency, safety, and longevity of renewable energy systems. It can be used to detect any vibrations or strains in the generator which can indicate potential issues such as cracking or damage. It is ideal for solar thermal operation and maintenance, solar photovoltaic operation and maintenance, wind turbine operation and maintenance, and geothermal operation and maintenance.
