Infrared Temperature Sensors
The Pro 100 and Pro
200 Series multi-wavelength infrared temperature sensors are ideal for a
multitude of industrial applications where devices such as thermocouples and
RTDs would be inaccurate, too slow or difficult to use. Sample applications
include heat treating, metal forging and casting. Pro 100 and Pro 200 sensors
use ESP algorithms to provide “aim-and-read” capabilities for non-greybody
materials (e.g., annealed, galvannealed and stainless steel; aluminum; copper;
etc.) that are not accurately measured by single- or dual-wavelength sensors
because their change in emissivity varies by wavelength. The sensors measure
the amount of infrared energy emitted by an object’s surface, then convert this
signal into a temperature value between 200-4500°F. Accuracy is within 2°C or 0.25% of the reading (whichever is
greater).
