New Infrared Temperature Sensor Offers Built-in Through-the-lens Laser Sighting

Listen to this article

The new PyroSight E series of infrared pyrometers from Calex Electronics is available with built-in through-the-lens laser sighting, and temperature ranges from -25°C to 2000°C.

All models have a two-wire 4-20 mA output and an adjustable emissivity setting via two rotary switches.
A choice of measurement wavelengths is available for a wide range of applications:
0.9 μm models allow reflective metals such as iron and steel to be measured more accurately than with any other measurement wavelength. This wavelength is ideal for applications including steel manufacturing, welding defect detection and furnace temperature monitoring.
1.6 μm models allow metals to be measured accurately at temperatures as low as 300°C.
5.1 μm models are ideal for measuring glass surface temperatures while minimising the effect of reflections.
8 to 14 μm models are ideal for general-purpose measurements of the temperature of paper, plastics, rubber, food, tarmac, and organic materials, for example in leaf temperature monitoring in greenhouses.
