Fiber Optic Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer

Model FTK-9 Series fibre optic non-contact infrared thermometer manufactured by Japan Sensor Corporation, Japan, is available in India from Toshniwal Sensing Devices. This thermometer employs fibre optic cable designed for precise non-contact temperature measurement of otherwise inaccessible or moving targets. The instrument consists of a remote sensor head, fibre optic cable and a converter unit. Infrared energy of the target is passed on from the lens to the converter unit through a fibre optic cable. The converter unit converts infrared energy into linear analog output signal for convenient display or recording by external devices like temperature indicator, controller, recorder or PLC. Analog output scaling is possible. Optional computer interface is available. Single point alarm output is provided. Thermometer is equipped with a LED guide light for aiming at the target and for indication of the target spot size. It is also equipped with peak hold and smoothing function. Sensor head and fibre optic cable can withstand ambient temperature up to 150°C allowing close access to target for precise temperature measurement under harsh environmental conditions. Length of the fibre optic cable can be chosen to keep the converter unit safely away from extreme environment. Converter unit also has robust design and work well at ambient temperature of up to 70°C. Temperature ranges available are 300~2000°C and 600~2000°C. It is most suitable for molten glass temperature measurement and hot metal temperature measurement. Various measurement parameters of FTK-9 thermometer, such as emissivity correction, temperature measurement mode, measuring range, analog output scaling, alarm point and response time can be programmed into the converter unit using parameter setting unit.
