    Abstract: A highly sensitive optical fiber cavity coating removal detector employs an optical fiber (18) having a pair of Bragg gratings (20, 30) embedded therein and separated by a section of fiber making up an optical cavity (26). The optical path length of the cavity (26) is sized with the central reflection wavelength of the fiber gratings (20, 30) so as to create an optical resonator. The cavity (26) is coated with a material (40) which corrodes or is otherwise removable, such as aluminum. The coating (40) exerts forces (46) radially inward on the cavity (26) so as to cause the refractive index of the cavity and thus its optical path length to change, thereby causing the resonator to come out of resonance. The forces (46) on the cavity (26) are reduced when the coating (40) corrodes, thereby causing the resonator to re-enter resonance. Additionally, the coating causes optical losses to exist due to non-uniform variations in refractive index caused by non-uniform forces from coating irregularities.

    Abstract: A sensor employs a laser (12) to obtain a collimated light beam for transmission across the gas effluent of a catalytic cracking process. Particulate matter entrained in the gas flow forward scatters light energy to a collecting aperture (18) which, in turn focuses the scattered light on a first photodetector (22). A second photodetector (30) receives directly transmitted light energy. A ratio (64) between the output signals of the two photodetectors is derived and presented to a threshold level detector (70). If the magnitude of the scatter exceeds a predetermined level it is concluded that a catalyst load dump has occurred. The optical system is carefully selected to ensure that only light energy scattered from a sample volume (16) within the entrained gas flow reaches the first photodetector (22). This is important because it prevents particulate matter on the surfaces of the transparent windows (36 and 50) from affecting the operation of the sensor.
