Thermometer is sturdy enough for moving
materials
Infra-red thermometer is sturdily built to withstand the rigours of measuring the temperature of moving materials, webs or inaccessible objects without contact in hostile production environments.
The RT8A infra-red thermometer from Land Instruments International is sturdily built to withstand the rigours of measuring the temperature of moving materials, webs or inaccessible objects without contact in hostile production environments Measuring product temperature in this way can improve quality, conserve energy and optimise production rates without contaminating, damaging or interfering with the process or material

Thermal imaging systems offer high reliability
Each FTI-E system has an industrial processor that provides local process control, configuration and process visualisation
Encompassing four models covering operating temperatures from 0 to 500C, the two wire stand-alone thermometers are suitable for primary OEM and end-user applications in industries such as asphalt, mineral processing, glass, food, paper, converting, plastics, printing and textiles.
The protection afforded by the robust, IP65, Nema 4X rated housing can be supplemented by optional cooling and lens purging facilities when required.
A choice of mounting and protection accessories from the System 4 range makes it easy to install the thermometer at the optimum point in the process.
The thermometers are designed to be integrated directly into a simple two-wire 4 to 20mA current loop for measuring, monitoring or control purposes.
Accurate, reliable and stable temperature measurement is assured by the response time, which is adjustable from 1 to 10s; accuracy is less than 0.5% of span and minimal drift with change in ambient temperature is +/-1.5C per 10C. Request a free brochure from Land Instruments International ...
