New range of portable non-contact thermometers introduced

AMETEK Land, a leader in non-contact temperature measurement, combustion efficiency and environmental emissions monitoring, has launched the latest update to its Cyclops^™ family of portable, high-precision, non-contact thermometers – the Cyclops L.

With its internal data logging capabilities, configurable route modes and dedicated software, the Cyclops L further establishes AMETEK Land as the industry leader in high-quality, portable non-contact temperature measurement.

Four new models

There are four new models in the new Cyclops L family, measuring across the range 200 °C/392 °F to 3000 °C/5432 °F. They are aimed at a wide range of applications, including liquid metal, steel and glass production, furnaces, and more.

Route manager function

The Cyclops L family features the new Route Manager function, which enables users to configure a path/route around a plant by identifying the location with description, an emissivity value, a window correction factor (if applicable), and a unique identifier (a description). This Route Management mode allows for complete repeatability of readings, making the thermometer a useful tool for multiple locations requiring regular and reliable monitoring.

High capacity internal data logging

The Cyclops L thermometer stores up to 9999 temperature measurements, which can be downloaded to optional logger software for further analysis and comparison.

New dedicated data logging software on a mobile device

The Land Cyclops Logger Software allows users to connect a Land Cyclops portable thermometer to a personal computer or mobile device to view, analyse and record live temperature readings. Connections between the Cyclops L model thermometers and a mobile device/computer can be either wireless (via Bluetooth^®) or via a USB cable.

Wide range of applications

These reliable, high-accuracy battery-powered thermometers have application in a wide range of industries, including metal foundries, steel making, glass refractories, petrochemical processing, and laboratory/research and development. They have precise, narrow field of view continuously focusable optics with through-the-lens sighting for accurate sample point selection. Long-term, drift-free measurement assures confidence in the readings.

Damage protection

The new Cyclops thermometers benefit from a new industrial rubber casing cover for increased protection from accidental damage. A new lens hood also adds further protection.

Full UKAS calibration

Cyclops L thermometers can be certified by US and UK ISO 17025 accredited laboratories to recognised international standards, in both the UK and USA.
