programming; no potentiometer
adjustments
Fully encapsulated electronics for harsh
sensing environments
Available in 3 models for different target
sizes and distances
The T-GAGE M18T sensor is not intended for absolute temperature measurement or for safety-related fire detection use.
Robust, Non-Contact Sensor for Monitoring
Temperature Changes
The T-GAGE
®
M18T is a passive, non-contacting temperature-based device that combines
the ease-of-use of a photoelectric with the brain power of a more sophisticated sensor.
Using a thermopile device to reliably detect objects that are hotter or colder than the ambient
condition, the M18T is used to verify and inspect control processes.
