PSC-A10C

Pyrometer for CO2 Gas & Flame Temperature

The digital pyrometer PSC-A10C is designed for temperature measurement of CO2 hot combustion gases and flame in a narrow spectral band around 4.6µm. By utilising this optimal wavelength, the sensor measures hot CO2 gases and flame temperature within the CO2 gas absorption band, covering a wide temperature range of 200°C to 2000°C.

The infrared radiation emitted from the gas stream is collimated onto the IR detector via the sensor’s lens. The acquired temperature reading is averaged from the sensor’s cone of vision, which penetrates up to 8 to 14 feet into the boiler or furnace — typically based on an 8–12% CO2 gas concentration.

Key Features

• Integrated through-the-lens sighting allows the operator to view directly through the pyrometer into the boiler or furnace.
• Galvanically isolated RS-485 interface for data acquisition in bus systems.
• Linear output signal of 0/4-20mA for easy implementation into pre-existing measurement and control systems.
• All parameters adjustable via PSCSpot parameterisation and evaluation software.

Applications

High-accuracy temperature measurement of Furnace Exit Gas Temperature (FEGT) is essential in optimising the combustion process and increasing boiler longevity. Typical application areas include kilns and furnaces, garbage incinerators and hazardous waste boilers, power generation boilers, biomass boilers, recovery boilers, and fluidised bed boilers.
