MEASUREMENT & MONITORING

New high-speed pyrometer CT 4M from Optris

With very fast processes , requirements for the pyrometers used for temperature measurement are especially onerous . Typical examples are plastics processing machinery , such as those used for blowmolding PET bottles , which work on very short cycle times . Another application is the monitoring of rail vehicles , where the temperature of the wheelset bearings are measured as the train wheels pass the pyrometer , to be able to detect components running hot in good time . Optris now offers the new high-speed pyrometer CT 4M for these types of challenging tasks . With a detection time of just 90 µ s , it is the fastest pyrometer within the product range at Optris .
Optimum for metal surfaces and low temperatures The CT 4M measures within the spectral range of 2.2 µ m to 6.0 µ m , making it ideal for low-temperature measurements on metals , metal oxides , ceramics or for materials with an unknown or changing emissivity .
Here , low temperature means the measurement range which spans 0 ° C to 500 ° C . The sensor head of the new pyrometer is very compact ; with a diameter of 14 mm and a length of 28 mm , it can easily be installed even where space is at a premium , for example directly within a machine . Instead of a PC , the pyrometer can also be connected to an Android mobile device which has the free IRmobile app installed .
