PSI Technics' Thermo Protection Cooling Case with Tube Enhances Sensor Performance

THE THERMO PROTECTION COOLING CASE ENSURES PRECISE MEASUREMENTS AT ALL TIMES

PSI Technics' TPCC protects valuable sensors in high-temperature environments of intralogistics and production.

(PSI Technics, 08/20/2012)

Whether you are using optical sensors such as laser distance meters or optical communication systems for manufacturing, production or measuring purposes, once environmental temperatures increase, sensitive components often fail. This is a scenario that is particularly common in the steel industry, because sensors are subject to extreme external conditions like dust or heat. Even the use of unprotected sensors mounted on bridge cranes or shuttles can lead to increased wear and inaccurate measurements.

To effectively prevent sensor failures and malfunctions, PSI Technics offers a powerful thermal protection cooling case designed to protect sensitive sensors, such as distance meters, from extreme environmental conditions. The Thermo Protection Cooling Case (TPCC) was specifically designed to protect sensitive sensor elements from environmental temperatures of up to 176 °F (80 °C). PSI Technics has also equipped the TPCC with a special tube that prevents reflections caused by sources of direct light to ensure a reliable operation of optical distance meters even over long distances. It eliminates interference from external light sources and ensures precise measurements at all times.

An additional advantage of the integrated tube is that it significantly increases the sensor's immunity to extraneous light. The tube compensates for ambient light, such as direct sunlight or direct illumination that may target the sensor from different directions and significantly reduces the amplitude of external light beams.
