Interchangeable sensor heads minimize downtime by allowing a single system to be re-configured for a variety of measurement criteria
Advanced Energy expand the Impac® Series 600 of pyrometers with new modular sensor heads. Supporting a wide range of wavelengths and temperature ranges, the new IS 600, IGA 600, IGA 600/23 and IN 600/5 sensors complement AE’s leading non-contact temperature measurement portfolio for steel and glass manufacturing applications.
Thanks to its modular nature, the Series 600 simplifies the design, installation, and maintenance of industrial manufacturing.
By providing highly accurate, multipoint temperature monitoring and control, the Series 600 equips customers with real-time data analysis, improved control and repeatability.
Single and multi-box architectures are available with up to eight individually customizable pyrometer heads in one system, eliminating the need to set up multiple systems saving cost and effort. Alternatively, customers can choose between three converter boxes as well as Profinet interface.
The modular concept allows for various combinations of system components: converter box, sensor heads, and multi-sensor box. The standard configuration includes an electronic converter box, a sensor cable, and a removable sensor head to allow for easy exchange. To ensure maximum flexibility, the system allows for any combination of the available sensor heads, even with different wavelengths.
The converter boxes provide an optional display for temperature measurement and parameters directly in the instrument, eliminating the need to connect to a computer to change the settings.
Different sensor heads cover temperature ranges between -40 to 2500°C and operate in spectral ranges between 0.7 to 14 μm for extended applications. The IS 600, IGA 600, and IGA 600/23 short wavelength digital pyrometers are well-suited for the measurements of metals, ceramics, or graphite while the IN 600/5 is specifically designed for the measurement of glass surfaces.
