The Raytek CM Sensor is designed for continuous temperature monitoring in a broad range of manufacturing processes and OEM applications. The sensor provides the advantages of infrared temperature measurement in a powerful, compact, integrated sensor. The CM sensor can easily replace traditional contact probes with a J-type or K-type thermocouple output, or with a user scaleable 0-5 volt output. The sensors onboard electronics are protected by a rugged IP 65 (NEMA-4) stainless steel housing, allowing the sensor to function in ambient temperatures up to 160°F (70°C) without cooling. The built-in sensor health LED provides a convenient on-line indicator of the sensor's operating status and aids in troubleshooting initial sensor set up. Although small in size, the CM is loaded with advanced features including; RS232 digital interface, 24 volt DC alarm, peak hold, valley hold, variable averaging signal processing, adjustable target emissivity settings and adjustable window transmissivity. DataTemp Multidrop software is includes with each sensor allowing the user to configure all programmable sensor variables.
