ifm efector infrared temperature sensor

Temperatures up to 1350°C can be measured with the new infrared temperature sensor from ifm efector. It also offers an integrated display and operating unit. Easy push-button programming ensures quick use. Additionally, the sensor features scratch-resistant precision lenses for minimum sensitivity to scattered light.

Infrared temperature measurement is used where temperatures can only be measured without contact. The sensors detect emitted infrared radiation and outputs a temperature signal. If the detected temperature is above the set switching threshold, the switching output is set and the switching status of the LED is displayed.

The switching thresholds and output configurations can be set and easily reproduced by means of the button and the display. Clearly visible LEDs always indicate the switching status. During operation the display shows the current measured value percentage.
