Optris CT P3 for Precise Temperature Measurement of Thin Plastic Film
The Optris CT P3 thin film temperature sensor has a miniature sensing head which is just 29.5mm in diameter x 55mm long. This allows the sensor to be installed in applications where space is at a premium.
Without cooling, the infrared temperature sensor can be used in environments of up to 75°C and has protection class IP 65. Its separate electronics enclosure provides a full range of outputs and inputs as standard including Voltage, mA and Thermocouple.
It’s also possible to incorporate an interface card which provides simple integration into your existing process control equipment. Options include Ethernet, Profibus DP, CAN bus, RS485, RS232 and USB interface and Compact Connect software.
For the temperature measurement of plastic films such as PET, Polyurethane, PTFE, FEP and Polyamide the Optris CT P7 with its specific spectral range of 7.9 μm is most suitable. For thicker materials, it is perfectly acceptable to use the Optris CT LT range of sensors.

Additional Information
Optris CT P3 thin film temperature sensor can be used with an optional USB interface and license-free Compact Connect software to configure the sensor by PC and record temperature measurements instead of traditional analogue or thermocouple outputs. The infrared temperature sensor and pyrometers from Optris can now also be easily operated from a smartphone using the IRmobile App for Android.
We offer a temperature calibration service and a range of accessories to purchase along with your IR pyrometer.
