The application range of the IR702 pyrometer is non-contact temperature measurement for a variety of applications in the metal industry and metallurgy: Melting processes, molten steel, heat treatment/tempering, rolling processes, laser cutting processes, laser welding, welding processes, continuous casting, metal recycling, forming processes, sintering processes, die casting processes, steel rolling, brazing, monitoring of induction processes and induction heating.

Using the principle of infrared temperature measurement, the sensor is able to measure the temperature of red-hot parts and components without having to touch them.

The included USB adapter cable and the free novasens Config software allows easy configuration of the pyrometer IR702 directly at the installation.

The ModBus RTU interface integrates the sensor into existing sensor networks and offers parameterization even during operation. In this way, the pyrometer can be adjusted to the emissivity of different metals, for example, during the production process. By means of an integrated temperature-linear 4-20mA analogue output, the measured temperature is transmitted to the PLC, data logger and panel meter for further processing.

A choice of precision optics is available for accurate detection of targets, even over long measurement distances.

With its compact, robust stainless steel housing in protection class IP65, the pyrometer can also be integrated where there is little space available in the machine or where harsh ambient conditions prevail.

A comprehensive range of accessories, such as a water cooling jacket for use in very high ambient temperatures, an adjustable sensor holder or an air purge attachment, allows the IR702 pyrometer to be customized for the specific application.

Its cost-effective system price also makes the novasens IR702 pyrometer attractive for OEM applications: Machine manufacturers in the metal processing sector can add an important temperature measurement function for process optimization and quality control to their machines by integrating the pyrometer IR702.
