The ATIR Switch is the most advanced IR switch in the market for industrial applications. The device is able to detect and scan hot objects without contact. The detection in the MWIR range, 1 - 5 microns, allows the detection of objects in a wide range of temperatures, starting in 200 C.
Advanced microprocessor-based electronics provides both analog (0-24 VDC) and digital (USB) outputs, converting the device in an excellent tool for counting or triggering process involving high-speed moving hot objects.
As an outstanding characteristic, its real time adaptative threshold algorithm makes the device specially recommended for applications where heterogeneous object temperature profiles are present. The device includes optics and custom software for data acquisition and visualization.
The optics is manually adjustable to allow measuring distances ranging from 0.5 meters to 5 meters (spot size 3x3 mm to 30x30 mm).
