Noncontact Temperature Measurement for Industrial Applications Model MI from Raytek

The Raytek MI is a two-piece infrared temperature measurement system with miniature sensing head and separate electronics. The sensor is small enough to be installed just about anywhere, yet it performs as well as much larger systems. The MI electronics include a host of signal processing features which you won’t normally find in systems in this price range, including Emissivity, Peak Hold, Valley Hold, and Averaging function, all of which are adjustable on the 5-digit LCD user interface.
Designed for a wide range of applications where the target temperature is in the -40°C to 600°C (-40°F to 1,112°F) range, the sensor is housed in a rugged stainless steel enclosure to ensure long term performance, even in harsh industrial environments with ambient temperatures up to 180°C (356°F) without cooling. Although the MI unit is small in size, it still has the features you need, with 1% accuracy, 10:1 or 22:1 optics and user selectable output signals. And the MI system’s response time is as fast or faster than many advanced systems.
Even more features are available with the RS-232 or optional RS-485 communications and the DataTemp Multidrop Software. These features include remote control and monitoring of all sensor variables, a 5V alarm signal triggered by a target temperature or head ambient temperature, an 8-position “recipe” table that can be easily interfaced to an external control system, an external reset signal input for signal processing, and even external inputs for analog emissivity adjustment or reflected energy compensation.
The MI unit’s miniature size and low cost make it ideal for installation at multiple points along your process. Accurate. Rugged. Easy to install. Affordable. With the MI, precision infrared temperature measurement is now an economical alternative.
Raytek MI – miniature sensor, maximum performance!
