From its versatile range of pyrometers, the Raytek TX IP65 rated infrared temperature sensors cover a broad range of applications. With special focal length options available and covering a range from -18 to 2000°C, the TX also sports a special model that is certified by PTB as intrinsically safe according to hazard class EEx ib IIC T4. The TX Basic is used for single, point-to-point installations and with the Smart versions up to 15 can be installed per multi-drop system.
The sensor and electronics are in the same rugged housing and communication and power supply shares a 2-wire loop, meaning less wiring and fewer connections. All heads have provision to fit protective windows and air purge collars, and water cooling is also easily implemented. A stainless steel version is also available for harsh environments.
Raytek DataTemp Multidrop software is a user-friendly application for system configuration and monitoring. Using this application users can set temperature and output ranges, emissivity and alarm logics, have the output correspond to min, max or average temperature over a set time and monitor data from the sensor(s) on a real-time graphical display. Data can also be exported to other applications for analysis and process documentation.
Applications include metals processing, power boilers for electricity generation paper processing, plastics and semiconductor manufacturing.
