The Wenglor Temperature Sensor OptoTemp for contactless measurement detects infrared radiation emanating from an object, on the basis of which it determines its temperature. Measurement is quick, contactless and nonreactive. The object itself is not influenced in any way. The temperatures of a great variety of objects can thus be reliably measured regardless of the material they’re made from, their size and their state of aggregation.
OptoTemp performs measurements with a spectral sensitivity of 8 to 14 µm within a measuring range of -25 to 350° C. The measured value appears at the integrated display and is read out via the outputs or the RS-232 port. Thanks to its two switching outputs and an analog output, the sensor is suited for various applications (target versus actual value comparison or absolute measurement). The integrated laser alignment tool and a teachable emission factor make initial start-up quick and easy.
