The Optris CT 3M is a miniaturized infrared thermometer for non-contact temperature measurement of metals and ceramic materials, with a spectral range of 2.3 μm and temperature ranges from 50 °C to 1800 °C depending on the model variant. The sensing head measures 14 mm in diameter and 28 mm in length, with an ambient operating temperature up to 85 °C and an IP65 rating. It features a response time of 1 ms, system accuracy of ±(0.3 % of reading +2 °C), and outputs including analog 0/4-20 mA, 0-5/10 V, thermocouple J/K, alarm, and digital interfaces. The unit operates on 8-36 V DC and draws a maximum of 100 mA. The sensing head weighs 40 g and the electronics 420 g.
The Optris CT 3M pyrometer, with its short/mid wavelength spectral characteristics and a temperature range starting from 50 °C, is well-suited for low-temperature measurements of metals and composite materials. Its quick response time of just 1 ms ensures smooth operation even in fast processes. The device's electronics box enables flexible connectivity options with selectable analog outputs and various optional digital interfaces, enhancing its versatility.
