Selection Guide: Infrared Radiation Pyrometer - KTX Series

Six different models, with six spectral bands, are available with the KTX. The KTX was initially designed for specific applications covering a range of industrial processes from manufacturing and processing of plastics, glass and metal to drying and coating of paper or textiles, thermal forming and curing processes on a variety of materials.

KTX Series
The following built-in options are now available with certain KTX models:
  • New built-in laserpointer.
  • 90° viewing attachment with integrated air-purge. (Click here for picture)
  • LED display. (Click here for picture)
  • Detachable connector at the back of the instrument
  • -25°C ambient operating temperature is now available, designed for low ambient temperature applications
  • 5 ms response
  • FS12 Peak Picker attachment available for KTX 5 ms unit and KT22
  • New TQI model 3.43 m for plastics applications
