Raytek CM monitors heat of manufacturing processes
Raytek has introduced the Raytek CM, a compact, integrated IR noncontact thermometer for continual temperature-monitoring in industrial manufacturing processes and OEM applications.
This rugged, Nema-4 sealed, single-piece integrated sensor offers powerful features to handle nearly any temperature-measurement requirement.
The Raytek CM ensures a consistent manufacturing process and allows tighter tolerances on heating processes, reducing heating costs while improving process throughput and product quality.
Designed for easy integration, the CM sensor can easily replace traditional contact probes with a J-type or K-type thermocouple output, or with a user-scalable 0-5V output if the application is susceptible to noise.
The Raytek CM includes precision, high-resolution silicon optics, providing excellent optical resolution.
An RS232 digital interface allows the user to configure all programmable sensor variables via the powerful Raytek Datatemp Multidrop software.
These include: a 24V DC alarm output triggered by target temperature or head ambient temperature; peak hold, valley hold or variable averaging signal processing; adjustable target emissivity settings; and adjustable window transmissivity setting.
A built-in sensor-health LED provides a convenient on-line indicator of the sensor's operating status and aids in troubleshooting initial sensor set up.
The Raytek CM's remote configuration capability allows it to be configured for most applications, reducing installation and troubleshooting time and streamlining data acquisition.
This feature also eases troubleshooting when the sensor is located in a hostile or remote location.
The Raytek CM sensor is designed to measure target temperatures ranging from -20C to 500C.
Its onboard electronics are protected by a rugged IP 65 (NEMA-4) stainless-steel housing, allowing the sensor to function in ambient temperatures to 70C without cooling.
