2015   PM-500-1C/Pyrometer  2  
DESCRIPTION:  
PYROMETER PRINCIPLE:  
This  class  of  temperature  measurement  is  based  on  the  measurement  of  the  infrared  emission  of  the 
measured  object.  Two  basic  parameters  influence  the   determination  of  the  temperature  from  the 
infrared  radiation:  “    ”  is  the  emissivity  which  depends  on  the  material  itself,  the  shape  and 
roughness of its surface, and then wavelength “   ” at which the radiation is measured.

The PM-500-1C Pyrometer provides non-contact, real- time temperature monitoring.  It can be used as 
a stand-alone sensor or configured for a multi-sens or network.    It is equipped with through-the-lens 
and laser sighting for alignment and set up, and op tional video sighting.       
  
Bi-directional,  RS-485  serial  communications  betwee n  the  sensor  and  a  computer  enable  remote 
setup,  monitoring,  calibration,  and  maintenance.      This  is  valuable  for  installation  in  hard-to-reach 
locations.
