If necessary, the ends of an AQ-07
cable can
be covered with black rubber to avoid light detection
outside the protected zone. The covered area
can be one (1) or two (2) meters
by default; if other
lengths are required, please consult the Arcteq sales team. You can find
the
"Contact and reference information" page at the end
of this manual.
5.5 Arc light fiber optic loop sensor AQ-08
AQ-08 is an arc light fiber optic loop sensor. It is designed to withstand temperatures up to 125 ºC,
which makes it suitable for e.g. wind turbine windings. AQ-08 is a robust fiber optic cable with a
practically unlimited bending radius. The sensor contains hundreds of glass fiber drains that are
covered by a plastic tube, thus making it extremely strong and durable. Fiber sensors are distributed
through the protected switchgear cells.
AQ-08 sensors can be ordered in pre-manufactured lengths of 3…15 meters (3 m, 5 m, 10 m, 15 m).
The fixed light intensity threshold of an AQ-08 sensor is 8,000 lux. The sensor does not require further
settings by the user. The sensor's detection radius is 360 degrees.
5.6 Sensor—unit dependencies

5.7 Connecting sensors
How to connect point sensors
1. Open the sensor covers and detach the connectors.
2. Attach the cable to the connector and to the unit.
3. Reattach the connectors to the sensor.
4. Run the auto-configuration procedure.
5. Once the auto-configuration has been successfully completed, put the sensor covers back in
place.
