Fiber-type radiation thermometer IR-FAQ
Two-tone

The IR-FA series is a fiber-optic transmission type radiation thermometer that guides the measurement light (radiant energy) captured by a small light-collecting part about the size of a little finger to detecting element housed in a small box-shaped main body via optical fiber optics. The small light-collecting part and flexible fiber optics transmission make it useful for measurements in places where it is not possible to look directly into the object, in narrow places, or where there is a risk of electrical induction interference.

  • fiber optics can be used up to 150℃ without cooling
  • fiber optics is not conductive, making it advantageous for use in induction heating and explosion proof environments.
  • Laser projection option available for checking measurement points
  • The main body is small and lightweight and can be mounted on a DIN rail.
  • A wide range of models are available, including low temperature, medium to high temperature, and two-color models

High temperature fiber optics radiation thermometer

radiation thermometer combines a lens and fiber optics as optics. The lens part is small enough to be used in environments up to 150°C. A short-wavelength thermometer with a measurement range of 400°C to 3000°C that is less affected by changes in the surface condition of the object being measured.

Other features

  • high accuracy, high-speed response, high reliability
  • Compact, lightweight, DIN rail mounting, temperature display, operation keys
  • Heat-resistant fiber eliminates the need for water cooling even in environments up to 150℃
  • Various signal signal modulation functions enable stable temperature measurement
  • emissivity setting by analog input or automatic emissivity computation function can be selected
  • communication interface: RS-485 (CHINOBUS)
  • CE marking compliant
