The compact, self-contained, PSC-42 series are simple, 2-wire loop powered IR temperature sensors with on-board emissivity adjustment. Constructed of rugged stainless steel, they offer several wavelength selections and wide temperature ranges which make the economical PSC-42 Series the ideal pyrometer choice for industrial and OEM machine building applications.

Boasting temperature ranges from -4°F to 4532°F, these 2-wire pyrometers lend themselves to countless industrial applications including Induction heating, paper, steelmaking, glass, ceramics building materials, thermoforming, thick plastics, rubber, wood, kilns, food, dryers, ovens, furnaces medical apparatus and research & development. The low cost Model 42 Series offers high quality performance, outstanding value and long term reliability. A variety of fixed focus optics are featured and users may choose an optional or integrated laser aiming light to determine exact alignment to the measured target.

Easily integrated into existing measurement and control systems with a linear 4 to 20 mA output signal, the PSC Model 42 infrared thermometer series provide a fast response time, small spot size, on-board emissivity adjustment and laser sighting (High temperature models). For use in harsh industrial environments, the rugged protective cooling jackets and air purge assemblies are rated for ambient temperatures up to 392°F (200°C), with a full range of electrical, mechanical and optical accessories available.
