CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The spectral response range is 7 to 14 μm, which is typical for detecting infrared radiation from objects at ambient temperatures. This range is suitable for non-contact temperature measurement and motion detection. However, the exact range may vary by model, so it is essential to confirm with the manufacturer.
The operating temperature range is -40 to 85 °C. This indicates the ambient temperature range within which the sensor operates within specified performance limits. For applications outside this range, consult the manufacturer for suitability.
The ingress protection rating is IP54 to IP65, according to IEC 60529. This indicates the sensor is dust and water resistant to a certain degree. The specific rating depends on the model, so verify with the supplier.
The detection distance is adjustable via lens, ranging from 1 to 10 meters. This allows the sensor to be configured for different application requirements. The actual detection distance may vary based on the target size and environmental conditions.
