Pyrometer or camera?

The Xi series is a fusion of a rugged, compact pyrometer
and a modern IR camera. Thanks to analog and digital
outputs as well as the option to process up to nine freely

denable measuring areas using an external process

interface, the Xi camera is perfectly suited for OEM appli­cations.

Integrated spot nder function

The integrated spot nder function allows for precise tem­perature measurements of moving objects - without having

PI 05M / PI 1M

INFRARED CAMERAS FOR THE
SHORTWAVE DOMAIN

Ultra compact
infrared cameras for
the metal industry

• Highly dynamic CMOS detector with an optical resolution of up to 764 x 480 pixels

• Very large temperature measurement ranges (without sub-ranges)
of 450 °C to 1800 °C (842 °F to 3272°F) (PI 1M) and
of 900 °C to 2000 °C (1652 °F to 3632 °F) (PI 05M)

• Frame rates and linescanning function up to 1 kHz for fast processes

• Real-time output of 8 x 8 pixels with 1 ms response time

• Includes license-free analysis software and full SDK

• New: PI 05M – Ideally suited for all laser processing applications with
solid-state lasers in NIR through excellent blocking of radiation above 540 nm

Intelligent temperature measu­rement – innovative and fast

The new optris® PI 05M and PI 1M
IR cameras are specially suited for
measuring the temperature of metals, as
these exhibit a distinctly higher emissivity
at the short measurement wavelength of

500 nm and 1μm than at measurements

in the previously conventional wavelength

range of 8 – 14 μm.

Measurement of a pouring stream.

Induction heating

Electrical upsetting.

Especially the new spectral range of
500 nm enables for more precise measu­rements at changing emissivities and is

less sensitive to atmospheric inuences.

Thus, the PI 05M is ideally suited for
temperature measurements of molten
metals. A direct 1 ms analog output allows
both camera models a readout of a freely
selectable 8 x 8 pixel region in real-time.

The use of these new image sensors
allows a large dynamic range for tempera­ture measurement so that the previously
necessary use of relatively many and

narrowly dened sub-ranges is no longer

required. Intelligent measuring with a
pyrometer is now possible thanks to the
two-dimensional
the

optris® PI 05M and PI 1M.

Thanks to the large measurement
temperature range of 450 ... 2000 °C
(842 ... 3632°F), the optris

PI 1M IR camera satises practically all
demands in the elds of metal production

and processing.
