Pyrometers for high temperatures

Published:  13 November, 2019

FLUKE PROCESS INSTRUMENTS has announced it has extended its Thermalert 4.0 spot pyrometer series, adding new shortwave versions and various additional interface options.

The compact, extremely robust infrared thermometers provide noncontact, automatic temperature monitoring. The company says three new spectral models measuring at wavelengths of 1 µm, 1.6 µm, and 2.3 µm have been primarily designed for high-temperature applications and are particularly suitable for monitoring metal, steel, and glass. The full Thermalert 4.0 lineup covers measuring temperatures between -40 °C and 2300 °C and offers various different spectral models and focus distances. All models are now available with connectivity options for Ethernet, EtherNet/IP, and PROFINET IO, in addition to analog or RS485 interfaces. Voltage can be supplied via Power over Ethernet (PoE).

  • Smart pyrometers 

    FLUKE PROCESS INSTRUMENTS has announced it has launched the Thermalert 4.0 spot pyrometer series for automatic noncontact temperature monitoring between -40 °C and 2,250 °C. The series currently comprises 13 models with varied spectral responses, including dedicated sensors for metals, glass, and plastics products.

  • Cooling curve monitoring  

    Thermalert 4.0 spot pyrometers from FLUKE PROCESS INSTRUMENTS are said to enable precise monitoring of critical glass manufacturing processes such as annealing of glass bottles and containers. The noncontact infrared sensors measure product as well as belt temperatures. The company says that way, operators can ensure that the lehr is set correctly for products with different glass thicknesses and sizes, and that the transportation belt is heated correctly. The latter is especially important for glass containers with a thick bottom, to prevent uneven cooling and breakage. Continuous monitoring helps operators improve quality and uniformity and reduce reject rates. It also supports troubleshooting by detecting faulty burners under the transportation belt.

  • New temperature loggers  

    FLUKE PROCESS INSTRUMENTS has launched a new range of data loggers for temperature profiling in short and medium-duration processes in the electronics and paint and powder-coating industries. The company says the Datapaq DP5 series is optimised for ovens with a low clearance and reflow solder applications.

  • High-temperature pyrometers  

    FLUKE PROCESS INSTRUMENTS reports it has introduced the Endurance series of high-temperature infrared thermometers. Featuring a stainless steel IP65 housing and galvanically insulated I/Os, these units are said to enable continuous process monitoring of the most demanding industrial applications, including primary and secondary metals manufacturing, carbon processing, and silicon production.
