Franklin Lakes, NJ – Process Sensors Corporation introduces another new Metis sensor to its’ already extensive Metis product line. Known as the Metis M3 series, its’ highly unique and advanced design, customization, and adaptability outperforms any conventional pyrometer on the market today.

The Metis M311/ 22 stand-alone series offers wide temperature ranges starting from 300°C and has the ability to be used in ambient temperatures up to 80°C without cooling. The fiber optic cable and lens assembly for use with the M3 Fiber optic versions are ambient rated up to 250°C.

The Metis M3’s integrated keypad and 10-digit display enable all pyrometer settings to be easily manipulated by the user.

Superior to analog technology and based on the latest electronic high resolution 16 bit digital signal processing, the M3 provides convenient universal configuring. Equipped with many new features, such as digital inputs and outputs as well as an increased accuracy of 0.25%, the M3 stands up  to the highest industry demands. The sensor’s built-in video chip offers the ability to view in real time, a color composite video that can be displayed on a video monitor or using a standard off-the-shelf video to USB frame grabber, displayed on a PC.

The Metis M311/ 22 series offer manually adjustable focus, fixed focus, or remote motorized focus options. The precise alignment of the target is accomplished by laser, through lens sighting, or real-time color video. The dual wavelength sensor series delivers fast response times of <1 ms, adjustable up to 10 seconds and a dirty window alarm. Two analog output signals can be set (0-20mA or 4-20mA) individually, with switchable RS232 or RS485 serial interfaces as standard.

The high-speed serial digital interface and two high-resolution 16-bit analog 0/4-20mA linear outputs, are adjustable and configurable for a precise output of temperature measured values. Optionally, the pyrometer can be equipped with Profinet, Profibus or Ethernet to couple to a master controller.

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.
