Photomultiplier tube

  • Usable in wide ranges
  • When a photon hits the electrode it

emits an electron which multiplies and creates a current

Modern radiation pyrometer

Stefan-Boltzmanns law Emissivity varies with wavelength and material

  • Selective radiation pyrometer
  • one wavelength
  • Total radiation pyrometer
  • all infrared wavelengths

Accuracy, connections, cost

  • Many different types with different ranges
  • Many handheld devices, some connected

via USB or serial (RS232) for monitoring and configuration

  • Price from 200 SEK depending on range and

accuracy

  • Range is roughly -20°C to 3000°C
  • Accuracy usually from 0,1°C up to 0,5°C
