CI Fixed Infrared Sensor |
|
The CI measures target temperatures ranging
from 0 to 500°C (32 to 932°F). The onboard electronics are
protected by a rugged IP 65 (NEMA-4) stainless steel housing, allowing
the sensor to function in ambient temperatures to 70°C (160°F)
without cooling. With water cooling, the CI can withstand ambient
temperatures up to 260°C (500°F). Type J, K or 0-5 V output.

Emissivity of Most Common Materials
Emissivity is the measure of an object's
ability to emit infrared energy. Emitted energy indicates the temperature
of the object. Emissivity can have a value from 0 (shiny mirror)
to 1.0 (blackbody). Most organic, painted, or oxidized surfaces
have emissivity values close to 0.95. Some of our portable thermometers
have adjustable emissivity to ensure accuracy when measuring other
materials such as shiny metals. You can choose units with adjustable
or preset to 0.95 emissivity.
If you are using a thermometer with a fixed,
preset emissivity of 0.95, and need to measure a shiny object you
can compensate by covering the surface to be measured with spray
oil, flat black paint or masking tape. Measure the temperature of
the taped or painted surface. That is the true temperature.
Please note, these tables are to be used
as a guide only as emissivity changes with temperature and surface
finish.

| Thermocouple
and RTD Sensors |
|
|
| Temperature sensors come in a variety
of shapes and sizes, more than we could ever list on our web site.
Any configuration to meet your application can be manufactured. Thermocouples
and RTD sensors can usually be configured similar in the designs below.
For your convenient we have listed several common sizes and configurations.

Thermocouple Sensor Grade Wire |
|
THERMOCOUPLE WIRE- STANDARD GRADE meets or exceeds
ISA (Instrument Society of America) specifications for accuracy. A
variety of insulation is offered to meet your requirements. If the
wire is to be used to run more than 20 or 30 feet, it is usually preferable
to use the larger, more heavily insulated extension grade wire for
distance runs. Available as a shielded wire and with stainless steel
overbraid. |
| |
|
|
Thermocouple Extension Grade Wire |
|
THERMOCOUPLE WIRE - EXTENSION GRADE is used
mostly for connecting probes to instrumentation. To retard electrical
losses along its length, it is generally larger wire and more heavily
insulated than the standard grade wire. Available as a shielded wire
and with stainless steel overbraid. Different gauges available. |
