A fluid diffusion resistant tube-encased fiber grating pressure sensor includes an optical fiber (10) having a Bragg grating (12) impressed therein which is encased within a sensing element, such as a glass capillary shell (20). A fluid blocking coating (30) is disposed on the outside surface of the capillary shell to prevent the diffusion of fluids, such as water molecules from diffusing into the shell. The fluid diffusion resistant fiber optic sensor reduces errors caused by the diffusion of water into the shell when the sensor is exposed to harsh conditions.

L'invention concerne un capteur de pression à réseau de fibres enrobé dans un tube résistant à la diffusion de fluides. Ce capteur comprend une fibre optique (10) contenant un réseau de Bragg (12) imprimé, enrobée dans un élément de détection tel qu'une coque (20) capillaire en verre. Un revêtement (30) de blocage de fluides est appliqué sur la surface extérieure de la coque capillaire pour empêcher la diffusion de fluides, telles que des molécules d'eau, à l'intérieur de la coque. Le capteur à fibres optiques résistant à la diffusion de fluides permet de réduire les erreurs dues à la diffusion d'eau dans la coque quand le capteur est soumis à des conditions hostiles.
