Infrared temperature sensor suits semiconductors and metals

Calex Electronics is launching the cost-effective PyroMini 0.9 infrared pyrometer for non-contact temperature measurement on reflective metals and semiconductors as low as 350degC.

Infrared temperature sensor suits semiconductors and metals

The new pyrometer can view into a vacuum chamber through a quartz or glass window and measure the temperature of the surface of the silicon wafer. Temperature ranges from 350 to 2000degC are available, and the low-temperature 350-800degC model creates new opportunities for temperature monitoring and control in silicon wafer processing.

Stable and repeatable measurements can be taken continuously for long periods with a fast response time of just 240ms. With the optional MicroSD Card installed, over a year's worth of data can be logged, even at the fastest sample rate of one reading per second.

High accuracy is provided by the pyrometer's short-wavelength detector, which ensures that any error in emissivity setting or change in emissivity has the minimum effect on the measurement.

Miniature sensing head:

  • Dimensions 18x45mm, 316 stainless steel, sealed to IP65
  • Cable lengths up to 30m

Electronics module with optional touch screen:

  • Large, bright temperature display
  • Visual alarm indication
  • Scrolling temperature graph
  • Full sensor configuration
  • Basic models available without a screen

Outputs:

  • Choice of 4-20mA or RS485 Modbus output
  • Two alarm relays on touch screen models that could be connected to alarm equipment directly, without a separate trip amplifier

Accessories available include mounting brackets, air purging and laser sighting.

Sensors and accessories are available to order now. Find out more at calex.co.uk/pyromini09. For a quotation or to find out how to buy in your area, contact Calex at [email protected] or telephone +44 (0)1525 373178 (please mention MachineBuilding.net).
