How an Optical Pyrometer Works
An optical pyrometer measures temperature by comparing the brightness or color of light emitted by a hot object with a calibrated reference light source inside the device. This method is especially effective for surfaces above 1000°C, where other devices may fail.
Advantages of Optical Pyrometers
- Extreme High-Temperature Capability – Measures beyond the limits of many infrared devices.
- No Contact Required – Safe measurement of molten metals and glass.
- High Accuracy – Reliable results even with small or moving targets.
- Durability – Designed to withstand extreme industrial environments.
