<h2>What are Infrared Temperature Sensors?</h2><p>Infrared Temperature Sensors, also known as IR sensors or Infrared Sensors, commonly feature a lens that focuses the infrared energy onto the detector which converts energy into an electric signal.</p><p>This simple process of emission and detection of IR radiation help with heat and motion sensing to detect certain objects/obstacles within its range.</p><p>They are a key component of thermal imaging cameras, are vital in energy conservation &amp; maintenance and are also used in medical applications such as IR thermometers.</p><h3>How Do Infrared Temperature Sensors Work?</h3><p>Infrared (IR) temperature sensors emit an infrared energy beam focused by a lens onto a surface to detect the surface or object temperature. The reflected beam is received back in the sensor which converts the energy to an electrical signal that can be displayed in units of temperature. The sensor compensates for ambient temperature variation to give an accurate temperature reading.</p><h3>Measuring Different Surface Materials</h3><p>With different temperature ranges, sensor types and outputs available, it is important to choose the infrared temperature sensor that is appropriate for your application. Painted surfaces, paper, thick plastics, food, water, asphalt, rubber, wood and other non-metals all have a high emissivity.</p><p>These materials can be measured easily using general-purpose sensors with a fixed emissivity setting. Sensors with an adjustable emissivity setting allow fine-tuning of the measurement accuracy for use on partially reflective materials such as metals.</p><h3>Applications of Infrared Sensors</h3><ul><li>Gas Warning Devices</li><li>Gas Analysers</li><li>Flame Detectors</li><li>Human Body Detection</li><li>Item Counters</li></ul><p>Browse the broad range of Infrared Temperature Sensors RS have to offer and order today for next day delivery</p>

<p>Infrared Sensors are used in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. Infrared Sensors are some of the most common, effective Infrared Temperature Sensors used in industry today. They are a popular choice as they last longer, function better, and are incredibly accurate.</p><p>RS Components offer an extensive selection of high-quality Infrared Temperature Sensors from industry-leading brands including Calex, ifm electronic, Omron, Optris</p><h2>How does an Infrared Sensor work?</h2><p>Infrared Sensors use a transmitter to emanate radiation at the desired object. The infrared energy is then reflected back and detected by the Infrared Sensors receiver. The Infrared receiver processes the infrared radiation based on its intensity and gives an output, often with an amplifier.</p><p>Applications for Infrared Sensors include:</p><ul><li>Gas Warning Devices </li><li>Gas Analysers</li><li>Flame Detectors</li><li>Human Body Detection</li><li>Item Counters</li></ul><p>They possess some key features including</p><ul><li>Extremely long life</li><li>High efficiency</li><li>Low power requirements</li><li>Easy to install and maintain</li><li>Safe and convenient</li></ul><p>Browse the broad range of Infrared Sensors RS Components have to offer and order today for next day delivery</p>
