The Optris CSvision R1M two-color pyrometer stands out for its ability to deliver consistent and repeatable results. Unlike single-color pyrometers, which rely solely on intensity measurements, the CSvision R1M utilizes a ratio-based approach, measuring infrared radiation at two closely spaced wavelengths. This method provides unparalleled accuracy, particularly as temperatures rise and an object’s emitted radiation increases across the wavelength range.
One key advantage of the CSvision R1M is its reliability in adverse conditions. Unlike single-color devices, this pyrometer can provide accurate results even when emissivity is unknown or changes with temperature. This is especially beneficial when the measuring spot is partially on the object or when the object is smaller than the pyrometer spot size.
The two-color measurement principle of the CSvision R1M ensures repeatable and accurate measurements under varying conditions, offering resistance to dust, smoke, steam, and dirty observation windows. The infrared sensor remains reliable even with up to 90 percent attenuation caused by changing transmissions in the optical path. Additionally, this approach allows precise temperature measurements when the object is not fully placed on the pyrometer spot or is in rapid motion.
The CS Vision series’ innovative video sighting and crosshair laser make aligning the sensor easy. The CSvision R1M also features motorized focus capability, allowing for adjustable focusing from 350 mm to infinity in the standard focus version and 200mm to 400mm in the close focus version.
