Two-color pyrometer CellaCast PT 180

LED°C°F

Product overview
The mobile pyrometer CellaCast PT 180 is designed for non-contact temperature measurement of liquid metals and for continuous monitoring of the melt in casting channels of blast furnaces, cupola furnaces and automatic casting machines. Its high-resolution optical system produces a small measuring field that enables reliable measurements at distances up to 30 m.

Key features

• Non-contact, wear-free temperature measurement of the pouring stream from a safe distance
• Measuring range 750 - 2400 °C
• Filtering of correct infrared radiation from slag-free, oxide-free melt (CSD function)
• ATD function for automatic capture of measured values in discontinuous processes
• Two-colour measurement for interference-free operation in dust and vapour
• Parallax-free through-the-lens sighting with dioptric compensation
• Traffic-light indicator in the sight for optimum measuring distance
