The new Gooseneck Mount is the easiest, quickest way to adjust the aim of a Calex infrared temperature sensor.

Calex has successfully measured the temperature of a sintered steel gear using an 8-14 µm general-purpose sensor.

This DBC file converts the raw CAN data from the PyroCAN infrared temperature sensor into °C values of measured temperature.

The new ExTempMini is an intrinsically safe two-piece pyrometer with a sensing head that can be used in high ambient temperatures, up to 180°C. The sensor is ATEX, IECEx, UKCA and JapanEx certified for all surface gas Zones up to Zone 0 (sensing head) and Zone 1 (electronics module). The sensor has a two-wire 4-20 … Continue reading ExTempMini: New ATEX Pyrometer for High Ambient Temperatures
