Raytek CM (photo) is a compact, integrated infrared (IR) noncontact thermometer intended for continuous temperature monitoring in a wide range of industrial manufacturing processes. The IP65-sealed, single-piece integrated sensor can easily replace traditional contact probes with a J- or K-type thermocouple output, or with a user-scaleable 0–5 V output, if the application is susceptible to noise. An RS232 digital interface allows the user to configure all programmable sensor variable via the companys DataTemp Multidrop software. The sensor is designed to measure temperatures ranging from –20 to 500°C, and can operate from ambient temperatures up to 70°C without cooling. — Raytek, a Fluke company, Berlin, Germany
