Fully Integrated Infrared Pyrometers with LED Focusing and Wide Measurement Range

摘要

A new series of fully integrated infrared pyrometers providing high accuracy, flexibility and ease of use has been introduced by AMETEK Land (UK). The SPOT product line uses a patented, pulsed green LED to confirm spot size and focus, eliminating the safety concerns found with laser-based sighting. There are eight models spanning temperatures from 250 to 1800oC/484 to 3272oF with wavelengths ranging from 1.0 to 1.6um. The choice of measuring range and wavelength makes them suitable for numerous applications in iron and steel production, metal forging, heat treating and cement production among others. Applications include: Iron and steel, Rolling mills. Glass refractories. Metal forging, Heat treating, Cement/lime, Petrochemicals, Plastics and Laboratory research. SPOT pyrometers combine Ethernet, Modbus TCP, analogue inputs and outputs, and alarm contacts within a single device; no separate processor is required. Configuration settings and readings are available on a rear display, remotely via a web browser, or through proprietary SPOTViewer software. They are designed for simple installation and are interchangeable with older spot pyrometers.
