Processors
-
M215 S™ Spyrometer® Processor
Supports one or two Mirion cameras, giving the ability to view processes from two locations. Application software provides up to 32 overlaid temperature measurement zones per camera, fully adjustable for size and measurement mode.
-
M610 S™ Calico 3 Temperature Measurement System
Supports one or two Mirion cameras, providing precise temperature measurement across the screen, eliminating erroneous measurements at the edge of the image. Measures up to 32 'free form' temperature measurement zones.
-
M704™ Viewing Pyrometer
Temperature data is multiplexed with the video signal and sent to the M704 unit. It separates them and displays the video on a monitor with a locater square on the screen, colorizing the image and providing contrast expansion.
-
M721™ Auto Iris Controller
Allows adjustments to be made to the M530 camera auto-iris from the control room, retaining flame details and burner viewing quality. Connection is made via the same coax cable that is normally run from the camera to the control room.
Common Accessories
-
M356™ Retract
Retracts the camera from the most severe heat, protecting it from serious damage where the plant supply of air pressure, water or electricity has been interrupted. Includes ruggedized safety air reservoir and additional options.
-
M408™ Air Filter System
