Market Overview:
The global visual fault locators market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for fiber optic cables and rising awareness about the benefits of using fiber optics in various applications. The global visual fault locators market can be segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the market can be divided into fiber tracers, visual fault finders, visual fault indicators (VFIs), visual fault identifiers (VFIs),visual fault detectors (VFDs), and visual Fault lights. The VFI segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period as compared to other segments owing to its ability detect faults in optical fibers quickly and easily.
Product Definition:
A visual fault locator (VFL) is a device that emits visible or infrared light to help technicians locate faults in optical fiber cables. By shining the light on the cable, technicians can identify breaks, cracks, and other problems in the cable. VFLs are often used in conjunction with other tools such as OTDRs and power meters.
Fiber Tracers:
Fiber tracers are long, thin fibers that are coated with chemicals that light up when exposed to an electric current. They can be used in a variety of applications such as locating gas leaks and finding water leakages. Fiber tracers have the ability to locate areas of weakness in a structure which is not accessible through traditional methods such as drilling or cutting out sections of the wall. This makes them ideal for use in drywall construction, concrete structures and steel structures among others.
Visual Fault Finder:
Visual fault finders are devices that are used to detect and locate faults in electrical wires, cables, components or equipment. Visual fault finders can be easily operated by an individual without any technical knowledge. They can also be used by a person with minimal training to operate the device.
Application Insights:
The installation segment dominated the global market in 2017 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period. Visual Fault Locators are widely used for installation testing, which helps in identifying any abnormality during electrical continuity or polarity checks. The application has been witnessing significant growth due to its use in power distribution applications, industrial automation, commercial facilities and residential areas among others.
Fault finding is another important application of visual fault locators as they help determine the nature of a short circuit or open circuit by providing an indication of abnormal conditions on contact with an object or conductor that carries current i.e.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the presence of a large number of manufacturers and distributors, technological advancements, and stringent regulations for quality assurance. In addition, increasing demand for automation in industrial facilities is expected to drive regional product demand over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over the next eight years owing to rising investments by various governments across countries such as China and India for improving infrastructure development including power generation plants and other industrial facilities that involve high-risk activities such as manufacturing processes or handling chemicals/petrochemicals/plastics raw materials & resins). These factors are likely to boost product demand during the forecast period.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for fiber optic networks in telecom and data centers
- Proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) and increasing demand for smart cities
- Rising demand for Visual Fault Locators from the oil and gas sector
- Growing popularity of optical time-domain reflectometers (OTDRs)
- Increasing awareness about the benefits of using Visual Fault Locators
