MSE-HMD85 Digital Hot Metal Detector (HMD)
 
 
HOME MSE-HMD85 Description Technical Info Housing Info Data Sheet Request More Info
 

General Description

To accommodate variation in bar temperature and background IR, various precise threshold are programmable via covered switches from 270°C to 1,000°C ( 518°F to 1832°F) to ensure reliable switching with reference to both the displayed background and product IR signal. Furthermore, response time is programmable from 1ms to 250ms to accommodate black spots on the bar.

The MSE-HMD85 incorporates a remote self-check facility remotely energized by closed contacts that illuminates an internal IR LED to switch the detector and verify the' outputs are operating correctly.

The MSE-HMD85 will operate from either 24VDC or optional 80-240 VAC power input. Standard outputs include a cradle relay, a fast reed relay and both NPN/PNP transistor outputs.
