Innovative Design<br />
<strong>Honeywell</strong>’s <strong>Infrared</strong> <strong>Sensors</strong> are 2-wire temperature transducers/transmitters for non-contact<br />
temperature measurement. These products represent the latest in innovative technology, integrating<br />
exclusive, advanced electronic design with optical and mechanical precision that are the essence of<br />
<strong>Honeywell</strong>’s infrared products. The design from concept to finish is based on simplicity of installation<br />
and maintenance. The sensors, with their matchless array of options and accessories, demonstrate<br />
<strong>Honeywell</strong>’s continuing leadership in temperature measuring technology.<br />
Universal Application<br />
Completely self-contained, the IRFF and IRLS can be used as true 2-wire temperature transducer/<br />
transmitters which produce a standard 4-20mA linear output. Powered by its current loop, each<br />
sensor is completely compatible with any existing instrumentation for recording or process control. A<br />
rugged, stainless steel housing, miniature size and light weight make the sensors suitable for many<br />
applications which up to now were the exclusive domain of contact type temperature transmitters,<br />
such as thermocouples, resistance thermometers, etc. To insure minimum maintenance and utmost<br />
reliability, the sensors have absolutely no moving parts. When contained within its companion<br />
cooling jacket and air purge assembly, each sensor can withstand the most punishing conditions<br />
found in industry. The sensors have universal application in virtually any type of industry. Typical<br />
application areas where infrared has successfully been used include: cement, ceramics, chemicals,<br />
food, glass, heat treating, metals, paper, plastics, power, printing, petrochemicals, robotics, rubber,<br />
semiconductors, textiles, vacuum systems....<br />
IRFF Sensor<br />
The IRFF is designed to handle most demanding industrial applications. When powered by an 18 to<br />
40 Vdc supply, it provides a 4-20mA linear output for interface with indication and recording<br />
instrumentation. Its two-wire design simplifies installation, operation and maintenance. Screw<br />
terminals allow easy yet secure connection. The IRFF is a fixed optical system. That is, the distance<br />
between the sensor and the target area determines target size. It is recommended for applications<br />
where target size is known and operating distance is relatively constant.<br />
IRLS Sensor<br />
The IRLS contains all the features of the IRFF with the added<br />
benefit of upright through-lens sighting. The IRLS incorporates a<br />
high quality, high precision variable focus optical system that<br />
allows sharp focussing on the desired focussing knob on the rear<br />
panel of the instrument. The IRLS allows for precision pinpointing<br />
of small target areas. The user simply adjusts the instrument until<br />
the image is clear and the desired target is located within the<br />
reticle. The IRLS is available in three distinct versions. The first will<br />
make accurate measurements at distances of 14 inches to infinity,<br />
the second has a working range of 6 to 14 inches and the third is<br />
designed to measure a target at 2 inch distance.
Field Interchangeability<br />
Superior design not only insures accuracy and long term reliability,<br />
it also insures interchangeability between sensors of the same<br />
model with ±0.50% accuracy. For especially demanding<br />
applications, the sensors have a digital emissivity control, which<br />
can be set with a resolution of 0.01. This insures that, should one<br />
of the sensors need to be replaced, the replacement unit can be<br />
preset in every aspect before installation.<br />
Application Assistance<br />
Many years of experience in solving unusual and difficult<br />
temperature measurement and control problems qualify our sales<br />
and application engineering staffs to offer solutions to the most<br />
challenging applications encountered in industry.<br />
Quality Assurance<br />
Reliability is never taken for granted at <strong>Honeywell</strong>. After final<br />
calibration, every sensor is tested and burned-in for a week and<br />
rigorously subjected to a period of thermal cycling and vibration<br />
to verify calibration data.<br />
Warranty<br />
All sensors are backed by a two-year warranty and <strong>Honeywell</strong>’s<br />
