The ExTemp non-contact infra-red temperature sensor is designed to operate safely in hazardous areas, where there is a risk of explosion due to flammable vapours or dusts. It is certified “Intrinsically Safe” so there is no need for a bulky flameproof enclosure. The ExTemp is suitable for hazardous areas, Zone 0, 1 and 2 (gas), … Continue reading Calex Intrinsically Safe Infrared Temperature Sensors →

Calex is pleased to announce that the ExTemp Series of infra-red temperature sensors has recently been awarded ECAS-Ex certification, meeting the requirements for intrinsic safety in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This certificate is valid until May 2028.

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 →

The new LCT-485 network interface for ExTemp intrinsically safe infrared temperature sensors is now available to order! It is designed to be connected on the safe side of an Intrinsically Safe barrier or isolator, and allows multiple ExTemp sensors to be monitored and configured digitally on the same RS-485 Modbus RTU network. The LCT-485 features automatic … Continue reading New RS-485 Network Interface for ExTemp sensors now available →

The lens of every infrared temperature sensor must be kept clean and dry to ensure the pyrometer has a clear view of the target. The simplest way to do this is to purge the lens continuously with clean air, preventing dust and moisture from reaching it. Here is how to use the air purge collar. 

The new multi-channel temperature measurement software, CalexSoft 2, is now available as a beta release.
