LAND Aluminium Production and Processing Application Pyrometer SPOT+ AL

· A highly accurate and stable digital pyrometer, SPOT+ AL uses AMETEK Land’s cutting-edge SPOT+ technology and unique, advanced data-processing algorithms to measure aluminum temperature in extrusion (E), quench (Q), strip (S), forming/forging (F), forming/forging of higher magnesium alloys (F Mg) and liquid (L) applications. · Two versions of the SPOT+ AL are available, the SPOT+ AL version offers a measurement range of 200 °C (392 °F) to 800 °C (1472 °F) and offers six measurement modes (E, Q, S, F, F Mg and L). The SPOT+ AL LT (Low Temp) - 150-700 °C / 302-1292 °F for modes E, Q and S, and 130-700 °C / 266-1292 °F for F and F Mg. · The dedicated pre-set algorithms provide the most accurate digital temperature readings of low and variable emissivity aluminum. This ensures optimized press speed and high-quality products with minimal scrap. · The SPOT+ AL integrates easily with control systems to enable optimization of the press or mill with data also made immediately available via the rear display on the instrument or via a web server. A video camera within the pyrometer, the focus distance and other features can be accessed and configured locally or remotely. · Combining Ethernet, Modbus TCP, video, analogue, and alarm outputs in a single device, the SPOT+ AL is designed specifically to measure the temperature of aluminum in a range of processing applications. CUSTOM-APPLICATION MEASUREMENTS · The dedicated algorithms were developed from extensive trials in real plant environments. Fully focusable high-quality optics and a high speed 15ms response combine to provide measurements on detailed extruded profiles.
