Temperature Applications

- Welder

- Strip            

For cold rolling in both tandem and reversing mills, temperature control is important to obtain the desired mechanical properties and surface finish of the steel strip. Strip temperatures are measured using the TempMatic 4200 or the FiberView 5200 Series sensors. These innovative sensors utilize a patented Auto Null technology that is designed to provide accurate temperature measurement for this low temperature, low emissivity application. With infrared filtering at 2 microns, the 4200 and 5200 sensors minimize emissivity errors for accurate temperature measurement of cold rolled steel strip. These single-wavelength sensors measure as low as 125ûF (50ûC), and with their patented Auto Null design eliminate sensor noise and calibration drift. In addition, the fiber optic 5200 is a popular selection because it enables installation in a shadowed location near the roller. For quality control of the welded seam, the FiberView 9100 sensors are recommended for temperature monitoring and alarm.
