<p>A method for making an optical fibre sensor probe, comprising the steps of: (a) taking one or more optical fibres (1, 2, 3) each having a bend therein, the fibre bend(s) disposed in a first section (6) at or adjacent a first end of the optical fibre sensor probe, the optical fibre probe having a second section (7) adjacent the first section (6), and a third section (8) adjacent the second section, (b) encapsulating the second section (7) of the optical fibre sensor probe in potting compound and curing the potting compound, ends of the optical fibre(s) (1, 2, 3) extending from the second section (7) and through the third section (8), (c) emplacing a first tube (13) over the third section (8) of the optical fibre sensor probe, and/or (d) emplacing a second tube (17) over the first section of the optical fibre sensor probe.</p> |
