Description
The sensors of the optris CTratio series are noncontact infrared temperature sensors.
They calculate the surface temperature based on the emitted infrared energy of objects. The CTratio can
work in the 1-color-mode as well as in the ratio- or 2-color-mode
[► Basics of Infrared Thermometry]
. The
optical sensing head of the CTratio is made of stainless steel (IP65/ NEMA-4 rating) and is connected via a
rugged fiber optics, which is protected by a stainless steel armour, with the sensor electronics (die casting
zinc box).
1-color-mode [1C]
The 1-color-mode is best for measuring the temperature of objects in areas where no sighting obstructions
(solid, gases or dust) exist. The measurement object must fill completely the measurement spot, if the 1-
color-mode is used.
2-color-mode [2C]
In this mode the object temperature will be determined from the ratio of the signal of two separate and
overlapping infrared bands. The 2-color-mode is best for measuring the temperature of objects which are
partially obscured by other objects, openings or viewing windows that reduce energy and by dirt, smoke or
steam in the atmosphere. Another benefit of the 2-color-mode is that the measurement object can be smaller
than the measurement spot, provided the background is cooler than the target
