Range of models

CellaTemp PK 18
The CellaTemp PK 18 comes with an especially resilient lens,
allowing its use even in extreme environmental conditions,
such as in asphalt and concrete mixing plants, preventing the
lens from damage caused by aggressive vapours and dust.

Compact pyrometers

CellaTemp PK 29

Type

Temp. range

The CellaTemp PK 29 is equipped with a special UV blocking filter, thus avoiding that the measurement is affected by
daylight. This pyrometer also responds in a substantially less
sensitive way to reflective external radiation from nearby hot
objects than conventional devices working at short wavelengths. Therefore, the CellaTemp PK 29 can be used for a
variety of applications in the metal-working industry and, in
particular, for temperature measurements of aluminium and
bright metals at low temperatures. Thanks to the UV blocking
filter, it is also suitable to measure processes where diodes,
Nd:YAG or CO2 lasers are used for heating. This high-energy
laser radiation does not affect the measurement.

CellaTemp PK 41 / 42
In the range of 4.5 - 8 m glass has an emissivity of almost
100%. Above 5 m, atmospheric influences, such as humidity or water vapour, have an adverse influence on the measurement readings. The CellaTemp PK 41/42 is provided with a
blocking filter with a spectral sensitivity of 4.5 - 4.8 m. allowing
it to measure the temperature from the near surface area of the
glass. Owing to its wavelength, changes in thickness, different
types of glass, or varying moisture contents in the atmosphere
do not affect the measurement reading.

CellaTemp PK 51

Pyrometers with fi bre optic cable

and optical measuring head

The CellaTemp PK 51 was developed especially for temperature measurements in flame heated furnaces. Thanks to the
selective spectral range of 3.9 m, water vapour and CO2 in
the pyrometers field of vision have no effect on the measuring results, even when measuring from large distances. This
allows for precise measurements through flames and combustion gases.

temperatures

The electronic unit of the CellaTemp PKF 26/36 is separated

from the measuring head. A fibre optic cable transmits the infrared radiation to the electronic unit where it is transformed
into an electric signal. The measuring head is entirely composed of mechanical and optical components, enabling its use
in ambient temperatures up to 250 C without needing auxiliary
cooling systems. The fibre optics version is also used in confined spaces or powerful electromagnetic fields. The fibre optics cable is detachable both from the measuring head and the
electronic unit using a screw-in FSMA connector. This makes
it very easy to install the cable which can have a length of up
to 50 m.

Service function
Function
The radiation thermometer CellaTemp
PK detects the infrared radiation emitted by an object and converts it into
an electric signal. The detected temperature is displayed and transmitted
to the analogue output for further processing.
A unique combination of analogue
and digital linearization features
provides the CellaTemp PK with a
high-resolution signal processing unit.
Therefore, even with wide measuring
ranges, the sensor has a very high
temperature resolution while its noise
equivalent temperature difference is
extremely low. The pyrometer thus
supplies stable measurement readings even when the response times
are extremely short and the measured
temperatures are very low.
A microprocessor with high clock
speed allows for short response times
starting at 2ms.
The very bright display unit is equipped
with state-of-the-art technology. Even
from a great distance it is easy to read
and it is energy-efficient at the same
time.

Analogue output

Switching output
The presence of a hot object in the
sensors field of vision triggers a
switching operation when a pre-defined temperature threshold is exceeded. An LED indicates this switching status.
Optionally, the output can operate as
a normally closed or normally open
contact.
This configurable switch on/switch off
delay allows for a suppression of short
interference pulses and for an ideal
adaptation of the switching output to
the response time of a PLC.

The service function is used during

setup or running operation to apply
a simulated temperature value that is
displayed and transmitted via the analogue output. This feature checks the
correct functioning and range setting
for the downstream signal processing
units (display, controller, PLC) quickly
and safely even without a hot object.

Diagnostic function
The diagnostic function ensures a
high operational reliability. Incorrect
supply voltages, reverse polarities of
connections, overloads at the switching output, unacceptable ambient
temperatures or out-of-range object
temperatures appear on the display
as error messages.

Optical system
The optical system of the CellaTemp
PK is equipped with lenses with anti-reflective coatings. This makes the
lenses very durable, easy to clean
and perfectly suitable for rough industrial use.
The excellent imaging characteristics
of the precision lenses provide a high
optical resolution and a minimum sensitivity to stray light. This keeps the
measurement reading stable even
when object sizes and distances
change.

The analogue output supplies a signal

linear to the temperature; 0/4 20 mA
are optionally available. The range
setting can be configured with the
control keys.
The analogue output deactivates and
a warning appears on the display
when the internal temperature reaches 75 C.

Laser module
During setup of the CellaTemp PKF
26/36 the laser module PS 01/P is
mounted to the end of the fibre optic
cable to adjust the sensors focussing
range and to perform an alignment to
the target.
