The Optris CTlaser G5 pyrometer series is the ideal choice for non-contact temperature measurement in glass manufacturing and processing. It is designed specifically for the needs of glass applications and offers great accuracy and reliability from 100 °C to 1650 °C; this ensures optimal process control and product quality.
The G5 series features a strong two-piece sensor design that separates the optics from the electronics. This setup provides better flexibility and makes installation easier in tough industrial settings. The pyrometer uses a 5.0 µm spectral range, which perfectly matches the emissivity characteristics of glass. This makes it suitable for critical processes like float glass production, molding, bending, and tempering.
You can choose from three specialized models to fit your needs: the G5L (100–1200 °C), G5H (250–1650 °C), and the fast-response G5HF (200–1650 °C). Each model offers great optical resolution (up to 70:1), ensuring accurate measurement even for small targets or at long distances. The technology guarantees a system accuracy of ±1% and repeatability of ±0.5%.
Useful features improve everyday operation. The dual-laser aiming system allows for precise targeting. The pyrometer also offers versatile connectivity options, including industrial protocols like RS485, EtherNet/IP, Profinet, Modbus RTU, and Modbus TCP. This ensures seamless integration into modern automation systems. Configuration is simple using the free compactConnect PC software or the IR mobile App for Android.
Designed, calibrated, and tested for quality in Germany, the CTlaser G5 series represents precise engineering for the toughest glass industry applications.
