These units are made-to-order and matched for optimum performance when measuring critical temperatures in very distant targets or high temperatures up to 3000ºC or 5400ºF.

3i Series – Laser Sighting – Handheld Pyrometer – Raytek

The Raytek 3i series of noncontact thermometers measures surface temperature in places other
thermometers cannot. With a choice of spectral responses, temperature ranges, laser sighting options
and on-board data logging capabilities, the Raytek 3i meets the individual requirements of demanding users.

3i Series - Laser Sighting - Handheld Pyrometer - Raytek

Features Include

  • Temperature Range: -30º to 1200°C
  • Spectral Response: 8 – 14 microns nominal – thermopile
  • Distance to Spot Size: 25:1 up to 180:1
  • Emissivity: 0.10 – 1.0 digitally adjustable

To assure accuracy, 3i pyrometer also compensates for the energy reflected by the background around the target, making it a great tool to use nearby objects with high temperatures; for example inside a furnace.

Honeywell International – Industrial Solutions

Honeywell can trace its roots back to 1885, when an inventor named Albert Butz patented the furnace regulator and alarm. He formed the Butz Thermo-Electric Regulator Co., Minneapolis, on April 23, 1886, and a few weeks later invented a simple, yet ingenious device that he called the “damper flapper.”

From Tech Products Preview – Electronic Tools and Industrial Equipment

Here’s how it worked. When a room cooled below a predetermined temperature, a thermostat closed the circuit and energized an armature. This pulled the stop from the motor gears, allowing a crank attached to the main motor shaft to turn one-half revolution. A chain connected to the crank opened the furnace’s air damper to let in air. This made the fire burn hotter. When the temperature rose to the preset level, the thermostat signaled the motor to turn another half revolution, closing the damper and damping the fire. The temperature correction was automatic. Over the years, many Honeywell products have been based upon similar, but more complicated closed-loop systems.

Mobile Productivity – Mobile Station

“Using a wireless Station tablet or other handheld device, Mobile Station solutions simplify security and minimize performance impact on the control system.”

“Mobile Access for Station provides read-only and write access to Experion graphics with dynamic data. This is accomplished via a Terminal Client connection to a Remote Engineering and Station Server (RESS) loaded with Station and Terminal Services. Using the Terminal client installed on the Tablet PC…”
