New Series 140 Infrared Pyrometers from IMPAC
The new Series 140 is the latest development in the extensive range of digital pyrometers from Impac, with temperature measurement from 50 to 3500C and target sizes as small as 0.25mm
But as industry moves forward using new technology, with a need to reduce manufacturing costs and increase their quality standards, the requirements for temperature measurement are changing and becoming more demanding.
Users of infrared pyrometers quite correctly expect their temperature measurement capabilities to move forward to satisfy these new demands.
Since the early 90s Impac have pioneered the use of digital technology in pyrometers, resulting in a state of the art range of instruments to suit the most exacting applications in the metals industry.
The Infratherm range of digital infrared pyrometers offer a comprehensive range of features that provide the user with a quality measurement, a flexible and cost effective solution to temperature measurement problems.
These solutions involve; digital technology; high accuracy; fast response times; wide temperature range; digital and analogue outputs; digital communication; small size; rugged construction; cost effective.
Other features such as through-lens-sighting, laser targeting, focusable optics are also available.
Additionally an integral video camera can be included to give the facility to view the target area being measured.
Importantly this feature can be added without any increase in the size of the pyrometer.
The digital revolution has reached the infrared pyrometer industry and is advancing rapidly through continued development and the acceptance of the technology by the customer.
It is time to join it!.
