Abstract

A high-speed option for a time-tested radiation pyrometer has been made available. The response time for 98% response is less than or equal to 0.5 second. It is compensated for ambient temperature effects, is transient free, and makes use of existing charts and scales when used with null-balance electronic potentiometers.
