February 12, 2013 - Ircon extends the Modline 7 series by two infrared thermometers and a processor box. The 7V line has been especially designed for the semiconductor industry, while the 75 series now has a high temperature model dedicated to heat treating and annealing.
The modularity of the Modline 7 series helps users reduce installation efforts, since the installation hardware and application software is identical for all sensors and each model features an extended measured temperature range, with the entire series covering a -40..+3,000 °C range. The common Windows ModView Pro software platform facilitates multiple product configurations.
Users can set up and monitor sensors either via the rear panel of the sensor, the ModView Pro software included in delivery, or the PROC-7 processor box. This optional self-contained unit, designed to control all Modline 7 sensors independent of ModView Pro software, enables remote sensor health check, for instance in hard-to-reach or hazardous locations. The IP65 (NEMA 4) sealed sensor systems provide high-resolution optics, very good repeatability, and fast response times. The stainless steel enclosure integrates motorized focus control and both through-the-lens and laser sighting. The thermometer’s sensing head can operate as a stand-alone sensor, providing simultaneous analog and digital outputs of process temperatures.
All sensors are available with integrated water cooling to handle ambient temperatures up to 175 °C or with a WJ-7 water jacket for ambient temperatures up to 315 °C. An optional air purge collar keeps the lens free of debris in hot dusty environments and avoids unwanted condensation on the lens due to intensive cooling. Combined with an extended five year warranty, the Modline 7 series provides best-in-class solutions for demanding industrial environments.
