The quick exposure time of only 90 μs makes the high speed IR thermometer CT 4M the perfect sensor for measuring fast processes. Due to its short measuring wavelength and a temperature range from 0°C to 500 °C, the pyrometer optris CT 4M, is suitable for measurements of metals, metal oxides, ceramics or materials with unknown or changing emissivity.
The electronics box of the measuring device allows a flexible terminal device through selectable analog outputs as well as various optional digital interfaces.
The new compact infrared camera optris Xi 410 combines all the benefits of infrared cameras and infrared thermometers.
The Optris Xi 410 has a fast Ethernet interface and can be powered by PoE. This allows for a simple installation, even if the distance from the PC is large. The built-in hot spot finder function can be used to reliably measure moving objects without having to reposition the camera. If the network connection is interrupted or if the connected PC has a problem, the camera immediately switches to the autonomous stand-alone mode which ensures a continuous measurement and alarm. Thus the reliability of problem detection (typically exceeding a threshold in the context of monitoring a fire outbreak) is maintained. Thanks to this unique feature, the Optris Xi 410 is ideal for all safety applications related to fire prevention, detection of critical hot spots, monitoring of industrial equipment and storage of all kinds.
The Optris Xi 410 incorporates a motorized remote focus, controlled by the free PIX Connect software. The resolution of the camera is 384 x 240 pixels with a frame rate of 25 Hz.

The Series 1000 and 2000 are a range of extra large 3 to 5 digit LED array displays, 125 mm digit height, designed to be used in process / temperature / weighing applications where high visibility and distant viewing is required. Using high intensity wide angle LED's in an IP65 enamelled steel housing ensures clear viewing distances of greater than 50 metres. For high ambient temperature conditions, an optional special coated glass window is available. Typical applications include downtime, time and production control in large factories, the indication of load cell inputs / crane overload protection, process signals such as temperature, pressure, level, and AC or DC voltages and currents. For electrical specifications, input signal details, as well as the terminal connector assignments in the Extra Large Display, see the individual indicator operating manuals (e.g. Model 4001). Standard DPM indicators are used and internally fitted for the internal signal conversion for the Extra Large Displays. (Models ending in a 2)
The CALOG-TEMP, Multi-Function Temperature Calibrator is a high-precision, hand-held calibrator for the calibration and troubleshooting of process control instrumentation. The CALOG-TEMP simultaneously measures and sources ten types of thermocouples and seven resistance temperature detectors (RTD), whilst automatically capturing the calibration results. It measures milliamps whilst sourcing or simulating millivolts, TCs, RTDs or ohms to calibrate transmitters. The CALOG-TEMP logging facility stores data on the SD card supplied, which is easily downloaded to a PC via the onboard USB port and usable in most of the common spreadsheet formats. The trend feature is ideal for graphing temperature profiles and PID controller optimization with a programmable timebase. In addition, the CALOG-TEMP has the functionality necessary to install and maintain all powered and non-powered transducers using the built-in 24V loop power supply. The CALOG-TEMP is the economical choice for people wanting to do industrial field or workshop calibration.
Knowing the exact value of the radiation temperature is essential for the calibration process. It can be measured by either using a contact thermometer (in combination with the determination of the emissivity) or a transfer standard infrared thermometer. This value can then be used to determine the device constant for an initial calibration of the infrared sensors. In order to conduct a post-calibration by customers or local calibration facilities, the calibration temperature should be near the temperatures which occur at the respective applications.
Optris makes use of a transfer standard radiation thermometer CTlaser-PTB (see figure) to measure the radiation temperature of a reference source. The CTlaser- PTB is based on the IR thermometer optris CTlaser. The CTlaser-PTB needs to be traceable to the international temperature scale from 1990 (ITS-90). Thus, it is calibrated by the PTB (German national metrology institute) on a regular basis. ITS-90 is a very good approximation of thermodynamic temperature. It is based on 17 well-reproducible fixed values such as melting points of highly pure metals. Within the framework of ITS-90 the CTlaser-PTB is compared to national temperature standards from the PTB. This comparison within a closed chain of comparative measurements with a known uncertainty in measurement takes place on a regular basis.
Based on the CTlaser-PTB, Optris produces the CTlaser- DCI as a high-precision reference IR thermometer for its customers. The DCI units are produced with pre-selected components supporting high stability of measurement. In combination with a dedicated calibration at several calibration points the CTlaser-DCI achieves a higher accuracy than units from series production.
The optics of an IR thermometer is described by the distance-to-spot-ratio (D:S). Depending on the quality of the optics a certain amount of radiation is also received from sources outside the specified measurement spot. The maximum value here equals the radiation emitted by a hemispheric radiant source. The respective signal change in correlation with a resize of the radiation source is described by the Size-of-source effect (SSE).
As a result of this correlation all manufacturers of IR thermometers use accurately defined geometries for the calibration of their units; meaning depending on the aperture of the radiation source (A) a distance (a) between the IR thermometer and the reference source is defined. Thus, the value specified in datasheets and technical documentation as a measurement field is, in general, a certain defined percentage of this radiation maximum – values of 90 % or 95 % are common.
