The Optris CTlaser MT dual laser sensors offer a greater degree of flexibility in available options. The electronics are housed in a remote enclosure with a selection of output and digital interface options. The electronic box also includes its own digital LCD display showing temperature and alarm conditions. All configuration options are set via the front panel removing the need to use a PC to configure the pyrometer. Shorter wavelength versions are also available specifically designed for use with metals, glass and plastic films. All Optris CTlaser pyrometers come with a choice of optics to best suit your requirement.
Optris CTlaser MT for Temperature Measurement Through Flames
The Optris CTlaser MT dual laser sensors offer a greater degree of flexibility in available options. The electronics are housed in a remote enclosure with a selection of output and digital interface options. The electronic box also includes its own digital LCD display showing temperature and alarm conditions. All configuration options are set via the front panel removing the need to use a PC to configure the pyrometer.
The Optris CTlaser MT is an Infrared Temperature Sensor designed to measure temperature through flames making it ideal for use in ovens, for use in chemical reactions or for use in brick kilns. With a measuring range of 200°C to 1450°C, we can cover most applications. Selectable optics allow you to choose the most appropriate spot size for your application with the smallest spot of 1.6mm possible. The sensor also has a very fast response time of just 10ms. It is also easy to connect our innovative USB interface which allows simple configuration and on-screen measurement with the included Compact Connect Windows software.
Calibration as well as a full range of accessories are available for the Optris High Performance infrared pyrometers.
