Patol 5012 Heat Sensor – Infrared Transit Heat Sensor (Patol 5000)

Patol 5012 infrared heat sensor

Patol 5012 infrared conveyor heat sensor is an early warning sensor for the detection of heat spots and can trigger at temperatures as low as 100°C.

Typical applications for the Patol 5012 include conveyors, drying lines, sorting machines, food processing, baggage handling and production lines.

The unique eight detector enhanced infra red monitoring has been created in order to detect black heat which occur from all material and the sensor is designed to detect a change in these emissions.

Patol 5012 Heat Sensor Key Features

  • Detection of hazards at temperatures below flame point including both embers and buried hot spots
  • Air purged system for dusty environments with air pressure monitoring
  • Four channels of detectors to provide maximum reliability.
  • Multi-facet lensing provides wide, uniform coverage
  • Alarm and trip functions provide added security
