Below are some of our popular Industrial Pyrometers

Optris CSmicro 2W LT / LTH Miniature Infrared Temperature Sensor
Hi Temp infrared pyrometers available for measuring temperature measurement of metals and other high temperature materials.

The CSmicro series of the infrared pyrometer is an evolution of the CS, with a miniature sensing head which is one of the smallest in the world measuring just 14mm OD x 28mm long. The electronics are housed securely in a housing mounted onto the extension cable measuring just 35mm x 12mm which also has an LED useful for giving information about the sensor during use.

With the CSmicro we can offer a wider measuring range of up to 1600°C and also a higher ambient operating temperature for the sensing head of up to 180°C without additional cooling. Combined with high-quality optics giving small spot sizes, the CSmicro is an extremely versatile group of sensors, and are easily configurable using the optional USB interface and Compact Connect software.

The temperature pyrometer has the smallest sensing head available in the world at just 14mm diameter x 28mm long and allows the sensor to be installed in the applications where space is at a premium. The separate electronics enclosure provides a full range of configurable outputs as standard including Voltage, mA and Thermocouple. It is also possible to incorporate an interface card which provides simple integration into your existing process control equipment. Options include Ethernet, Profibus, RS485 and USB interface and Compact Connect software. The CT LT is available from stock so we can supply your sensor quickly too!

This high temperature pyrometer offers a wider measuring range of up to 1600°C. The sensing head is rated to up to 180 deg c.

Measuring the temperature of high temperature and molten metals is one of the most demanding applications for and sensor technology. The Optris range of 1m and 2m high-temperature pyrometers has however been designed to overcome the pitfalls often encountered.

Short wavelength sensors ensure that low emissivity materials are handled more easily, providing more accurate measurements that are less dependent on correct or variable emissivity.

High quality, high-resolution optics provide small measuring spots even at larger distances. This allows precise measurement whilst the pyrometer sensor is protected from the arduous conditions within the process.

Unique dual laser aiming system of our high-performance series permits very quick setup and displays on the object the exact location and size of the measuring spot. If this is not enough then our Video Pyrometers provide you with through the lens video aiming to give the most precise setup ever.This high temperature pyrometer offers a wider measuring range of up to 1600°C.

Finally, a broad range of standard and optional process outputs and interfaces allow our sensors to be integrated with almost all existing process control equipment.

New low cost infrared thermal imaging camera is available from stock and is suitable for high temperatures.

The newly developed optris Xi 80 combines the benefits of infrared cameras and infrared pyrometers.

New low cost infrared thermal imaging camera is available from stock and is suitable for high temperatures.A full 80×80 thermal image eliminates the hunt for the hot spot and tedious positioning required with single spot temperature sensors. The integrated spot finder function will identify the hottest (or coldest) spot in the image and automatically communicate these measurements without an external PC.

A wide range of optics including the new 80° lens equips the Xi 80 to collect and analyze temperature information over a wide target area. The affordable pricing for this unit makes it a realistic alternative to replace existing spot temperature sensors or for OEM applications.

Optris CT Hot for high ambient temperature to 250°C

Due to its special spectral range of 5.0 µm, the pyrometer optris CT G5 is perfectly suited for the measurement of glass temperatures, e.g. during container glass production, vehicle glass production or solar cell production.

The IR thermometer’s stainless steel measuring head is extremely small and can be employed in ambient temperatures of up to 85 °C without additional cooling. A multi-installation of the pyrometers, e.g. in series as line scanner, is therefore cost-efficient and can be performed even in limited spaces.

  • Temperature range:
    100 °C to 1,650 °C
  • Spectral range: 5.0 µm
  • Response time: 80 ms (G5H), 120 ms (G5L)

What is an Industrial Pyrometer?

An industrial pyrometer is a device used to measure the temperature of objects in industrial settings. It uses the principle of infrared radiation to determine the object’s temperature without direct contact. The pyrometer consists of a sensor that detects and converts the emitted infrared radiation into an electrical signal, which is then processed to calculate the temperature.

In simple terms, imagine you have a tool that can “see” the heat coming from an object without actually touching it. That’s what an industrial pyrometer does. It’s like a special thermometer that uses invisible heat waves to tell you how hot something is. It’s commonly used in industries like manufacturing, metalworking, and glassmaking, where precise temperature control is crucial for ensuring product quality and safety.

For example, in a steel factory, an industrial pyrometer sensor can measure the temperature of molten metal to ensure it’s at the right temperature for shaping and processing. It helps operators monitor and adjust the heat levels in various industrial processes, preventing overheating or underheating, and ultimately improving efficiency and product consistency.
