    Monochromatic PyroMeter

    Overview Knowledge Terms
    A monochromatic pyrometer calculates temperature by detecting the intensity of infrared radiation emitted by an object at a specific wavelength, based on Planck's radiation law. It is used for non-contact measurement of surface temperatures and is commonly employed in real-time monitoring of processes such as printing and drying or plastic thermoforming.
    Selection
    When selecting, it is necessary to match the target temperature range and measurement accuracy, and consider the emissivity characteristics of the measured material. The observation distance and field of view should cover the detection area, and appropriate protective structures should be equipped to account for environmental factors such as dust and steam. The response speed must meet the frequency of process changes.

    Transmittance Meter Selection Guide: Principles for Matching Light Sources and Samples
    This article introduces how to select the light source for a transmittance meter based on sample characteristics. The types of light sources include halogen tungsten lamps, LEDs, and lasers, which are suitable for wide-band, monochromatic, or high-precision measurements, respectively.
