Product catalog summary
Non-contact Temperature Measurement of Metal Sheets
The document discusses the challenges of measuring the temperature of metal sheets at low temperatures using non-contact methods. Due to low thermal radiation and specific radiation properties of metals, long-wave pyrometers with a spectral sensitivity of 8-14 µm are typically used for measurements starting at room temperature. However, these are sensitive to lens pollution and mainly capture reflecting radiation. Shortwave devices with a wavelength of approximately 2.4 µm are recommended for temperatures starting at 75 °C.

Multiple Reflections in the Coil Gap
The emissivity of galvanized sheets is less than 20%, meaning 80% of environmental heat radiation is reflected. In coil gaps, multiple reflections occur, artificially increasing emissivity and improving measurement conditions.

Solution
The choice of pyrometer depends on the minimum sheet temperature. Longwave pyrometers are needed for temperatures below 75 °C, while shortwave devices are preferable for higher temperatures. Shadowing measures are necessary to protect against extraneous light for temperatures up to 150 °C. High optical resolution pyrometers are advantageous for measuring in coil gaps, and laser sighting is recommended for optimal adjustment.

Measuring Systems
The document provides specifications for different pyrometer models, including their measuring range, spectral range, response time, and mounting combinations. It also highlights the importance of correcting measured values based on coil diameter due to the effect of multiple reflections.

Mounting Combinations
Details on mounting combinations for pyrometers are provided, including components like dust stops, cooling jackets, and oscillating mirrors.

Application note Metal Sheets on-contact temperature measurement N of metal sheets The measurement of metal sheets at low temperatures is still a challenging measuring task in the field of non-contact measurements due to the very low thermal radiation and the special radiation properties of metals. For physical reasons only longwave pyrometers with a spectral sensitivity of 8 - 14 µm can be used for measurements starting at room temperature. However, the emissivity of metals, i.e. the ability to emit thermal radiation, significantly decreases with a longer wavelength, which, in turn, increases...

This signal peak is detected by the peak picker which is integrated into the pyrometer. The measurement interval of the peak picker is selected according to the set swivel period. As a result, the varying signal becomes a continuous temperature value. • The larger the coil, the narrower is the formed gap. • The narrower the gap, the higher is the number of reflections. • The higher the number of reflections, the higher is the artificial increase of the emissivity. • The higher the emissivity, the higher is the temperature signal received by the pyrometer. Consequently, a larger coil diameter...
