CThot LT

Pyrometer optris CThot LT for high ambient temperatures

The pyrometer optris CThot LT has been developed for the most extreme conditions in high-temperature areas and is acclaimed for its especially high temperature resistance. Employment of the inrared thermometer in ambient temperatures of up to 482°F without additional cooling poses absolutely no problems.

Due to the mentioned features, the IR pyrometer is especially suited for applications in driers, in tempering for metal and glass industries, in the processing of plastics and textiles, and in the semiconductor production. By request, the IR thermoemters are available in an explosion-safe design with ATEX certificate.
