Status: In production
Brand: Omron
Product: Infrared thermosensor, 60 to 120 °C
Measuring range: 60 to 120 °C
Output: K-type thermocouple equivalent
Power supply: 12/24 V DC
Response speed: Approx. 300 ms (63%)
Degree of protection: IP65
Omron ES1B-60-120C is an infrared thermosensor calibrated for the 60 to 120 °C range that measures object temperature without contact. Its thermopile receiver element detects radiation in the 6.5 to 14.0 µm wavelength band and produces an electromotive force equivalent to a K-type thermocouple, so the sensor can be connected directly to the thermocouple input of a temperature controller. The sensing distance to sensing diameter ratio is 1:1 typ.; for example, a 20 mm diameter spot is measured at 20 mm distance. Response speed is approx. 300 ms at 63% response.
The sensor is powered from 12 or 24 V DC and draws 20 mA max. Reproducibility is ±1% of process value or ±1 °C; within ±5 °C of the reference temperature the accuracy is ±2% or ±2 °C. The 44.5 mm long housing is made of ABS resin with an M18×1.0 thread and is fixed with 2 lock nuts at 0.5 N·m max. The 3 m shielded PVC cable is 4-wire with open ends. Degree of protection is IP65, operating temperature is −25 °C to 70 °C and weight is approx. 120 g.
