Hot metal detector - remote system (separate electronics and optic connected with a fibre optic cable) The foto-captor is a hot metal detector that was developed for harsh operating conditions, as they prevail in the steel industry. Wherever electrical switching commands can be triggered by the intrinsic radiation of warm rolling stock, foto-captors have proven themselves under the toughest environmental conditions. foto-captors are available in different versions, which differ in terms of minimum response temperature, optical data, housing design and electrical data. - Remote mounted electronics connected by means of fibre optic cables to custom suited lenses. - Especially suitable for extreme conditions of heat and dust, protecting electronics from operating environment. - Offers a fully flexible system for a wide range of response temperatures and viewing angle configurations. - With a minimum response Temperature of 200°C it is even suitable for Aluminium - Suitable for a wide range of operating conditions for a wide range of different response temperatures and viewing angles up to application-specific versions (e.g. cooling housing, air connection) - Fibre optic cable in different lengths available - Fully electronic, no moving parts
