Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS)

Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) is a technology that uses fiber optic cables to measure temperature along their entire length in real-time. By sending laser pulses through the fiber, tiny changes in light are detected, which reveal temperature variations at many points along the cable. This allows for continuous, precise monitoring over large areas—such as pipelines, power lines, or dams—helping detect issues like leaks, overheating, or structural changes quickly and accurately. DTS provides a comprehensive temperature profile, improving safety and operational efficiency in various industries.
