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

Short wavelength infrared temperature sensors provide improved results on hot metal surfaces. Here is a comparison of three of our shortwave pyrometers.

Calex short wavelength (2.0 to 2.6 µm) infrared temperature sensors are suitable for accurately measuring the surface temperature of non-metals and some metals at high or low temperatures. These sensors have adjustable emissivity settings, reflected energy compensation and peak and valley hold processing, making them particularly suitable for measuring hot objects in a furnace or on … Continue reading Comparison of Short Wavelength Infrared Temperature Sensors

Many of our infrared temperature sensors have a feature called Peak or Valley Hold Processing. What does this feature do, and when should you use it?

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. 

CalexSoft 2 multi-channel temperature monitoring software

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

PyroUSB compact pyrometer with USB and 4-20 mA outputs

The new PyroUSB series of configurable infrared temperature sensors is now available! All models have a 2-wire, loop-powered 4-20 mA output for industrial process temperature monitoring, and a removable USB cable for configuration and benchtop temperature measurement.
