Abstract

Capteurs optiques utilisés dans des conditions difficiles, chaque capteur devant comprendre un passage hermétique interne de guide d'ondes optique résistant à la pression. Dans un mode de réalisation, un ensemble capteur de pression servant à déterminer la pression d'un fluide dans des conditions difficiles comprend un élément de détection suspendu dans un logement rempli de fluide. Un guide d'ondes optique qui assure la communication avec l'élément de détection est couplé à un ensemble passage comprenant un guide d'ondes optique de type baguette qui forme un bouchon de verre placé de manière étanche dans le logement. Le bouchon de verre assure la communication optique entre le guide d'ondes optique et l'élément de détection. Un dispositif de transmission de la pression peut transmettre la pression du fluide au fluide se trouvant dans le logement. L'ensemble permet d'éviter presque entièrement toute déformation de base de l'élément de détection et peut protéger l'élément de détection des chocs et des vibrations.
