Specifications and Regulatory Information
Specifies the slope width of a measured step temperature profile
ΔT (rising or falling). The slope width is defined as the spatial
distance between the measured 10% and 90% levels of the
slope, with 0% and 100% being the stationary temperature levels
before or after the step, see figure.

Spatial resolution
Measured temperature profile on a step temperature profile.
Spatial resolution does not include noise effects.
Conditions: Spatial resolution setting as specified. Sampling
interval set to minimum. Other parameters as specified.
Measurement: An ideal step change in temperature of ΔT 10°C
(rising or falling) is measured with the FIBERSYSTEM 8000
instrument. The points
of the measured slope are connected
using a cubic spline
interpolation.
Specification
Specification describes a guaranteed product performance.
Specifications are based on a coverage factor
1
of 2 (unless
otherwise stated), corresponding to a level of confidence of
>95%.
Generally all Specifications are valid at the stated operating
conditions and measurement settings, for environmental
temperature change Δ20 °C per hour, with a sensing fiber type as
specified and with the sensing fiber spliced to the
FIBERSYSTEM 8000
instrument.
