Sensor specialist Balluff has developed a new BTS infrared temperature sensor with IO-Link interface and two switching outputs. It can monitor temperatures between 250°C and 1250°C even in inaccessible or hazardous areas, detect hot objects in motion, and record temperature values – all without contact.
This pyrometer in the rugged M30 stainless steel housing with IP67 protection is the first in this form factor to offer a multi-function display with plain text information and automatic display orientation like a smartphone.
In addition to two switching outputs, this pyrometer provides an IO-Link interface for remote parameter setting and direct data exchange with the controller or control panel. An analog 4mA to 20mA output is available as an option.
A variety of setting possibilities and functions open a wide range of applications for the user.
