Land Infrared has introduced a new range of compact infrared radiation thermometers for economical, easily implemented non contact temperature measurement.
More compact infrared radiation thermometer
With overall dimensions of only 18.6mm diameter x 118mm, the new miniature MF3 infrared radiation thermometer is ideal for continuous, on-line industrial applications in a tight corner
Metals processing applications are also catered for including induction and conductive heating, forging, rod and wire manufacture, heat treatment and tube welding.
ScanTemp optically scans across the width of the product surface and generates a detailed, accurate temperature profile.
A built-in LED projects a continuous red spot to define the measurement point on the target.
For maximum flexibility, the range includes separate models for wide and narrow angle scanning purposes, each offering a choice of thermometer types and scanner modules that can be combined to meet the requirements of the particular application.
The ScanTemp STW wide angle series has an adjustable scan angle from 5 to 60deg, with a scan rate adjustable from 25 to 120deg/s and three 4 to20mA output options - temperature only, temperature and scan angle, and temperature and peak.
The STN-P series has a fixed, narrow scan angle of 6deg.
Scan rate is adjustable from 12 to 72deg/s, and the 4 to 20mA output shows peak temperature. Request a free brochure from Land Instruments International ...
