controlled with Infrared Non-Contact AL514 Pyrometer
Quartz has a high melting point like a metal. It does not have a distinct melting point as crystalline materials; it softens over a relatively broad temperature range.
This transition from a solid to a plastic-like behavior, called the transformation range, is distinguished by a continuous change in viscosity with temperature.
The flame temperature plays a crucial role during the quartz tube fusing process. An accurate hot flame is essential for maintaining the right process temperature. Wrong flame temperature, like heating for a longer duration or too much heating, leads to the formation of bubbles in the melted region.
In quartz tube fusing applications, the temperature rises above 2000°C. by Using infrared pyrometers, the temperature of both tube surfaces can be measured.
The Application Solution:
We offer the AST AL514 model for this Application.
This pyrometer provides the advantage of noncontact temperature measurement of glass surfaces and quartz surfaces. The AST AL514 pyrometer is used for temperatures ranging from 400°C to 2500°C.
The electronic assembly is protected by IP65 rugged stainless steel housing.
