Advanced Photonics Australia

At Advanced Photonics Australia, we are engaged in designing and supplying fibre optic based solutions to protect our clients people and critical equipment assets. We combine our years of industrial expertise with these solutions to ensure our customers business resilience and safety. We have adopted the latest proven technology in the field of PHOTONICS to engineer industry leading fire detection systems for the most onerous operating environments. In addition, our Distributed Temperature & Acoustic Sensing systems provide continuous condition monitoring of key assets. This allows a predictive asset management approach to be established which minimises unplanned outages, and avoids over-maintenance of equipment. We utilise fibre optic based distributed temperature sensing technology (DTS) for Fire Avoidance, Detection (accredited system for fire detection) & Alarming, and DTS and distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) for Equipment Condition Monitoring. Our DTS system is immune to EMI, Ex i approved IEC60079.0 for use in zone 0 (gas) and zone 20 (dust) areas, is SIL2 (IEC61508) rated, with the fibre optic cable fire rated for 2 hours at 750 degrees C, with a 40 year design life. Fully integrated into your fire alarm system via voltage free contacts, and your plant control system via the Modbus TCP/IP interface. Our technology will minimise your risk of: Conveyor Fires Pipeline Leakage & Blockage Tunnel Fires Tank Farm Fires Coal Bin Fires Cable Insulation Burnout Motor / Pulley Bearing Failure Conveyor Idler Failure Mobile machine total temperature monitoring Advanced Photonics Australia is a Premium business partner of APSensing GmbH.
