The right output from infrared
temperature sensors
The exiting new additions to the Convir EL and MLE series of infrared temperature sensors, offering millivolt, thermocouple and voltage outputs to complement the existing 4-20mA output versions
Calex Electronics is proud to announce the launch of some exiting new additions to the Convir EL and MLE series of infrared temperature sensors These new units offer millivolt, thermocouple and voltage outputs to complement the existing 4-20mA output versions and allow these highly successful sensors to tackle virtually any low to mid temperature application

While the 4-20mA output provided by the current generation of EL and MLE sensors is generally considered to be the preferred choice due to the low cable cost and high noise immunity, when retro-fitting to existing equipment it can sometimes be desirable to have a wider choice of outputs to match the instrumentation in place.
So, for example these new units can be fitted as direct replacements for more traditional thermocouples.
This means that many more users can now benefit from the EL and MLE series outstanding performance and low cost.
The first new model available will be the MLE-1 sensor with a 0 to 50mV output.
This will soon be followed by units with 0 to 100mV, 1mV/C, 10mV/C, 0 to 5V, J thermocouple and K thermocouple outputs.
Following these the new EL units will be launched with the same wide range of outputs.
This new choice of outputs will allow the EL and MLE series to make the right connection with all process control and indication equipment currently in use.
The new models will be available at the same cost as the existing EL and MLE units, with the same wide temperature ranges between -20 to +500C, outstanding accuracy and performance.
