Breakthrough Pyrometry Technology Uses L.E.D. to Illuminate Only the Area Being Measured

Measuring temperatures with a non-contact sensor is now being done with added confidence. A built-in L.E.D. is used to illuminate the exact area being measured. The light source shares the same optics used to receive the IR from the targeted area.

(PRWEB) October 26, 2005 -- ThermaLogix Inc. announces the availability of its IRt/c non-contact temperature sensor, the TL-75.

Manufactured in the USA by one of the leaders in pyrometry, this advanced product concentrates on the user’s ability to visually confirm the area being measured. Each TL-75 contains an integral sighting system. The sighting system illuminates the area being monitored by using a safe LED that shines through the same optics used to capture the Infrared.

Unlike all the other IRt/c’s on the market, the TL-75 provides the confidence the user needs knowing that what he sees illuminated is what he is measuring. “What you see is what you get.”

Standard models are available that can measure an area as small as 2 mm in diameter, have the minimum measured spot size at distances to 100 mm and have outputs ranging from 1mV/°C, 0-5Volt, 4-20 mA Differential and both “K” and “J” Type Thermocouples.

Targeted applications include both PCB rework systems that rely on accurate temperature readings of components during reflow such as lead free µBGA’s and temperature profiling on individual leads or component hot spots.

Other applications include i) energy conversation for insulation and heat flow studies, ii)Quality Control for printed circuit boards, soldering, universal joints, welding, metrology, iii) Silicon for crystal growing, strand/fiber and wafer annealing and iv) Vacuum chambers for refining, processing and deposition.
