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
With many companies using the Profibus platform for communications in process control systems, the availability of a fully integrated Profibus pyrometer is a distinct advantage to system builders.
Until the launch of the new range by IMPAC, the only solution has been to use conventional pyrometers with external Profibus converters.
These solutions have required additional wiring and set up procedures, together with the reliability problems of having several interface units.
The Series 140-PB pyrometers can easily and quickly interfaced with existing Profibus systems using the supplied GSD file.
Project planning can be carried out using any proprietary planning tool software.
The new series encompasses all the features associated with the standard Series 140 pyrometers and with data transfer speeds of up to 12MBd they provide the state of the art solution for digital communications.
The Profibus integrated interface will be expanded to cover the full range of the Series 140 Pyrometers as customer demand requires.
Future developments of the series will introduce other communications platforms, which will ensure that the product group remains in pole position in the market place.
