OPT-XI1M
The Optris Xi 1M is a short-wavelength infrared camera that offers innovation, affordability, and precision in non-contact thermal imaging of challenging objects. Designed to operate within the short-wavelength infrared range (1M: 0.85 – 1.1 μm), this forward-looking infrared camera is engineered to capture measurement data for precise surface temperature analysis of hot steel, iron, brass, copper, tin, carbon, ceramics, and semiconductors. Addressing the rigorous demands of various industries, the Optris Xi 1M offers wide elevated temperature measurement ranges, exceptional accuracy, and customizable field-of-view configurations.
Many measurement objects made of non-shiny material show high and relatively constant emissivity independent of their surface consistency, at least in long-wave spectral ranges. Nevertheless, many metallic and shiny materials have low emissivity at long infrared wavelengths. The low emissivity of those materials in the long wavelength infrared bandwidth results in varying and unreliable measuring results.
The spectral range of a short wavelength Xi 1M infrared camera matches most metallic material’s highest emissivity, which eases remote temperature measurement. In addition, due to Planck’s radiation law, exponentially more infrared radiation is emitted in the short wavelength range, so linear emissivity issues have less influence on the repeatability of temperature measurement results at short-wavelength. Therefore, contactless temperature measurement of shiny materials at high temperatures should always be as short-wave as possible, considering the higher temperature measuring range. In addition, these infrared cameras boast the capability to autonomously seek thermal hot spots, enhancing their utility and efficiency in various monitoring and inspection tasks. The Xi 1M infrared camera is specially designed and manufactured in Germany for these challenging industrial applications and outperforms long-wavelength infrared cameras in precision, accuracy, and repeatability.
The Xi 1M infrared camera features a mid-resolution thermal imaging capability (396 x 300 pixels), enabling it to excel in capturing temperature data across an extensive range from 450°C to 1800°C without sub-ranges. Its remarkable distance-to-spot-size ratio ensures accurate temperature measurements, even when capturing images from considerable distances. This superior ratio surpasses the optical performance of modern pyrometers, facilitating detailed monitoring of targets at significant distances. Furthermore, the motorized focus functionality allows users to precisely adjust focus remotely on their surface temperature measurement targets.
The industrial-grade and robust design of the Optris Xi 1M ensures reliability in demanding industrial environments, making it an indispensable tool for process engineers seeking accurate infrared temperature measurements in manufacturing processes. Its compact yet durable and waterproof design renders it ideal for fixed installations or mounted setups, guaranteeing durability in diverse industrial manufacturing environments.
Featuring Ethernet as its primary interface, the Optris Xi1M facilitates seamless connection to computers with a frame rate of 20 Hz for the full-size image. The USB interface, also at a frame rate of 20 Hz, is a secondary option for a sub-image of 132 x 100 pixels. Its smart autonomous operation eliminates the need for extensive software coding, enabling integration into control loops effortlessly. Moreover, the infrared camera boasts features such as automatic spot finding, direct analogue output (0/4-20mA), and compatibility with industrial fieldbus systems such as Ethernet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP, RS485, or Profinet, making it the ultimate solution for original equipment manufacturer (OEM) use. The Xi410’s autonomous operation mode at 20 Hz for a sub-image of 132 x 100 pixels further simplifies integration into machinery.
In addition, the Optris Xi1M offers access to more complex software functionalities, such as line scanning or image merging, through the PIX Connect software license. PIX Connect is indispensable for researchers seeking an affordable IR camera with a powerful software platform for thermal image processing and temperature data collection. Developer kits are also available for integrators developing application-specific software solutions.
These innovative features enhance the infrared cameras' ability to provide accurate and reliable surface temperature measurements across various applications, ranging from quality control in manufacturing processes to condition monitoring and research and development activities. The Xi 1 M’s flexibility ensures seamless integration into various industrial setups, enhancing the camera's adaptability to specific requirements. With its advanced features, the Optris Xi 1M sets a new standard for fixed-install infrared imaging, offering a cost-effective and powerful solution for diverse industrial applications.
Moreover, the infrared camera Xi 1M is compatible with an extensive range of accessories tailored for harsh environmental conditions. These accessories include a water-cooled housing, extending the operating temperature range to 250 °C. Air purges uphold a pristine lens, guaranteeing uninterrupted temperature measurement even in dusty environments. The portfolio of compatible accessories is complemented by mechanical mounting options, electrical interfaces, and connection cables, all available at an appealing price.
