The Optris PI 1M IR camera, available from Instrotech, is especially suited to measuring the temperature of metals, as these exhibit a distinctly higher emissivity at the short measurement wavelength of 1μm than at measurements in the previously conventional wavelength range of 8 to 14 μm.
The new infrared camera provides temperature measurement in an IR picture or IR video, which presents a lot of information, quickly captured in just one millisecond.
The imaging sensors allow for a large dynamic range in temperature measurement, so there is no need for the relatively many and narrowly defined sub-ranges previously required. With its two-dimensional temperature recording, the Optris PI 1M pyrometer enables intelligent temperature measurement.
It offers a temperature measurement range from 450 to 1 800°C and thus meets most demands in the fields of metal production and processing.
The Optris PI 1M IR camera features:
- Highly flexible CMOS detector with an optical resolution of up to 764 x 480 pixels
- Large temperature measurement range (without sub-ranges) of 450°C to 1 800°C
- Frame rates of up to 1 kHz for fast processes
- Real-time output of middle pixel at a setup time of 1 ms
- Includes licence-free analysis software and full SDK.
