Description

Advantages:

Low solution cost – only one central unit can control the 40 km line with option extension up to 75 km length;
Immunity to electromagnetic influences;
Standard single mode optical fiber as sensitive element (only one fiber is needed);
Independence on whether conditions: snowing, raining, fog, wind, etc.;
Integration with other security systems on the basis of Ethernet protocol: video surveillance, alarming of operative personal, etc.;
No any field maintenance, easy in deployment (there is no need in hi qualification personal);
Very robust system (redundant power supplies, hot swappable cards);
Network management system complies to telecom standards, diary for recording main parameters, optical managing channel.

Guard and monitoring of oil and gas pipelines:

The Dunay system informs about approaching to zone under protection and permits operatively react, faster than a tap can be embed into the pipeline:
The control of the tap embedding
The control of any unauthorized earthwork nearby pipeline
Location registration defectoscopes and cleaning pigs
Protection for communication line
One of the most frequent reasons of FOCL failure is breaking of an optical cable. Damages might happen while earthwork in close vicinity of optical cable arrangement or because of vandalism. The Dunay system allows to prevent failure having reported to the operator about unauthorized earthwork near the communication line.

Monitoring of railway tracks:

The Dunay system can be used on railway lines for tracking trains, detection of an inadvertent uncoupling of wagons or drop of goods from the train. In addition, continuous data analysis helps to detect in advance the degradation or damage to the railroad tracks.

Vibration monitoring of bridges, buildings, extreme industrial plants and constructions:

To avoid emergency at critical facilities (bridges, dams, etc.) it is necessary continuously monitor the facility. In autonomy mode the system allows to control the events and inform about load tolerance level exceeding in time.

Operation & Maintenance:

Short optical impulses (200 ns) inputs periodically (with 1-2 kHz frequency) into the standard single mode fiber (SSF), then changes in the interference figure of the backscattering signal are analyzed.
Standard telecom fiber is used as a distributed sensor. Short optical impulses (200 ns) are sent in the fiber periodically with a frequency of 1-2 kHz and changes in interference pattern of backscattered signal are analyzed. The system registers acoustical influences with frequencies from 4 Hz to 1 kHz. A network of “Dunay” reflectometers with a centralized management can be arranged for monitoring of extended objects like transfer pipelines. Reflectometers in the network are managed using a service channel.
The system contains built-in server that performs data processing: primary processing and filtration, detection and classification of events. A workstation of operator performs only tasks that do not require high computing performance, such as visualization of data acquired from one or several reflectometers, and representation of events on a network scheme or on the map.
This enables you to organize various network configurations using remote access depending on customer requirements. An API is provided for integration of the “Dunay” with existing security systems.
