Intelligent pyrometer for automatic hotspot detection

Micro-Epsilon: The intelligent thermoMETER TIM 8 pyrometer offers automatic hot and cold spot detection in industrial applications which enables effective and reliable temperature control. Designed for standalone operation without a PC, it combines the advantages of a robust pyrometer with those of an infrared camera.

Automatic hot and cold spot detection in automation, machine building and plant monitoring increases process reliability. The intelligent thermoMETER TIM 8 is specially designed for these types of application. It stands out due to its excellent optical resolution with a state-of-the-art motorized focus which enables remote focusing of the lens. When the predefined threshold is reached, an alert signal can be output via the integrated process interface. It is, among other things, used for monitoring of control cabinets, process control or for detection of overheated baked goods in a temperature range from -20 to +900 °C.

Due to its compact design, this modern pyrometer is also suitable for restricted installation spaces. Operation is intuitive without configuration software. Data output is via an analog output, which means the measuring system is ideally suited to OEM serial applications.

An industrial interface with galvanic isolation and three relay and analog outputs each, as well as comprehensive accessories such as air purge collars, protective windows and cooling housings are available as optional extras.
