Abstract

PURPOSE:To detect moisture accurately and stably, by winding a wire with a porous moisture absorbing layer on the surface of an optical fiber in a coil to make a moisture sensor. CONSTITUTION:The surface of a core 1 made of methacrylic resin or the like is covered with a clad layer 2 comprising fluorocarbonic resin with a high moisture resistance such as polytetrafluoroethylene and a porous moisture absorbing layer 3 is further evaporated thereon. The optical fiber thus arranged is wound several times in a coil to form a moisture sensor, which is arranged in an atmosphere for the moisture to be detected. Then, when a visible light or an infrared ray is made incident on the incident side 1a of the core 1, a part A thereof is emitted on the emission side 1b thereof after repeated reflection within the core 1 while the remaining part B thereof is transmitted through the core 1 and incident into a film 3 from the layer 2 to be attenuated away. Here, any water 4 in the film 3 reflects the part B of light transmitted to be made incident into the core 1 again and then, the light is emitted on the emission side 1b. Thus, changes in the moisture can be detected depending on increase on increase or decrease in the output of light received with a light receiving device on the emission side 1b.

(Prior art) Electronic humidity sensors such as a capacitance type that detects humidity as a change in capacitance of a dielectric material and a variable resistance type that detects humidity as a change in resistance of a hygroscopic material provided between electrodes have been widely used. However, since these humidity sensors use dielectric materials, hygroscopic substances, etc. for indirect measurement, consideration must be given to the humidity history of the material itself, and when using materials with insufficient consideration, had the problem that faithful reproducibility could not be obtained and the output characteristics became unstable.

On the other hand, an optical fiber is provided with a humidity deforming member that expands and contracts in response to humidity changes, the optical fiber is deformed in response to the expansion and contraction of the humidity deformable member based on humidity changes, and humidity is detected from changes in the optical transmission characteristics. The thing is from 1984.
It is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 8756, and humidity can be determined from the amount of attenuation of the infrared light by projecting infrared light onto a plastic fiber and utilizing the hygroscopicity of the plastic fiber and the absorption characteristics of the infrared light due to the absorbed moisture. A method for detecting humidity is also disclosed in JP-A No. 58-190742, but since the former belongs to the indirect measurement method, the reproducibility of the output characteristics of the humidity absorbing member is low, similar to the electronic humidity sensor. In the latter case, absorbed moisture has the property of absorbing a specific wavelength of infrared light, and the amount of absorbance is weak, so it is necessary to use an expensive high-sensitivity amplifier. This poses a problem in that it is difficult to reduce manufacturing costs.

Humidity can be accurately and stably detected from the amount of reflected light that changes depending on the amount of moisture adsorbed in the moisture absorption layer, without being affected by its physical expansion/contraction, deformation, moisture absorption, etc. Moreover, since it does not require a high gain amplifier, the device can be constructed at low cost, and since it does not require an electrode for humidity detection, it can be used in an atmosphere where corrosive gases are generated. It can be configured as an optical fiber humidity sensor that is not affected by the environment and has excellent explosion-proof properties. Furthermore, these humidity sensors are placed in the reference cell and the measurement cell, respectively, and the humidity is measured based on the difference in the amount of light detected by each humidity sensor, so even if the wire has some bends, the light transmission characteristics will not change. The loading operation can be made extremely easy by eliminating measurement errors derived from variations in .
