New Highly Advanced, Full Featured Metis M3, One - Color Sensor Series: Models M309, M316, M318



Franklin Lakes, NJ – Process Sensors Corporation introduces its newest high resolution 16 bit, Metis, one-color sensor series for non-contact temperature measurement in the short wavelength spectral range. Designed primarily for precise measurements on metals and bright/shiny materials, the M3 trio of Models M309, M316 and M318 features wide temperature ranges and the highest accuracy and repeatability available, even at high temperatures, and up to 176°F without cooling.



The Metis M3 pyrometers are each stand alone, self-contained infrared thermometers with on-board temperature display & direct analog and digital outputs for easy integration into existing PLC, DCS, digital indicators & recording devices. The three models have different spectral ranges (0.7-1.1µ m, 1.45-1.8µ m and 1.65-2.1µ m) with wide temperature ranges. Model M309's six temperature ranges span from 550° to 3300°C, Model M316's five ranges extend from 200° to 330°C, and Model 318's two ranges cover from 100° to 1300°C. Additionally, any temperature sub-range is adjustable within the overall temperature ranges of all three M3 models.



The multi-functional series offers a choice of manually adjustable, motorized or fixed focus optics. Adding to their versatility, a choice of three sighting methods is available: thru-lens sighting with adjustable attenuation filter, red laser targeting light, and high dynamic color CCD camera /video output.



M309, M316 and M318 boast fast response times of <1ms, adjustable up to 10 seconds. Two analog output signals can be set (0-20mA or 4-20mA) individually, with switchable RS232 or RS485 serial interfaces as standard.



Parameter settings can be made with push buttons on the devices via the menu display, through serial interface, supplied PC software or self-compiled communications programs to control emissivity, transmission, sub-ranges, response time, outputs, interfaces and language.



Process Sensors Corporation offers the widest range of high performance, non-contact infrared temperature sensors, thermal imaging / thermal line scanning systems, and blackbody calibration sources to meet the most demanding on-line industrial process applications as well as sensitive OEM performance requirements.
