Precise Infrared Temperature MeasurementPyroEpsilon utilizes advanced infrared technology enabling non-contact temperature measurement, ideal for processes where physical contact is unfeasible. The sensor covers a wide temperature range (0C to 500C, model dependent) and outputs a linear 4-20 mA signal for seamless integration with existing monitoring or control systems.
Robust Industrial DesignFeaturing a stainless steel housing and industrial-grade insulated interior, PyroEpsilon withstands harsh environments. Its IP65 rating ensures protection against dust and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for demanding process industries in India and globally.
Versatile Emissivity AdjustmentThe adjustable emissivity feature (0.2 to 1.0) allows users to fine-tune the sensor for different materials, ensuring accuracy across a variety of surfaces. This adaptability provides precise control in diverse applications without manual recalibration.
FAQ's of PyroEpsilon - Fixed Infrared Temperature Sensor with Adjustable Emissivity:
Q: How does the PyroEpsilon sensor measure temperature without physical contact?
A: PyroEpsilon operates using infrared non-contact technology, capturing thermal radiation emitted by objects in its field of view. This allows it to accurately determine surface temperatures without the need for direct touch.
Q: What is the benefit of adjustable emissivity in this temperature sensor?
A: Adjustable emissivity (0.2 to 1.0) enables PyroEpsilon to be calibrated for different materials, improving accuracy when surfaces have varying reflective properties. Users can tailor settings for metals, plastics, or painted surfaces accordingly.
Q: Where can PyroEpsilon be installed, and what environments is it suitable for?
A: PyroEpsilon is designed for industrial settings, featuring IP65 protection and stainless steel housing. It can be installed on machinery, production lines, or process systems where reliable, non-contact temperature monitoring is required.
Q: What is the process for installing the PyroEpsilon sensor?
A: Installation is straightforward thanks to its M18x1 threaded mounting and a shielded cable (standard length: 1 meter). Connect the 24 V DC power supply and output wires to your monitoring system, then adjust the emissivity as required for the target material.
Q: What is the sensor's response time, and why is it important?
A: The PyroEpsilon sensor offers a rapid response time of 250 ms, which is essential for real-time monitoring in dynamic processes. Quick response helps ensure timely detection of temperature changes for effective process control.
Q: Can PyroEpsilon operate accurately in high humidity environments?
A: Yes, the sensor is immune to humidity variations in its ambient operating range. Its robust industrial design allows consistent performance in typical factory or processing plant conditions found in India and worldwide.
