The Molten Metal Pyrometer Model MFP-200 is a compact unit suitable for measuring the temperature of molten metal in small castings factories and foundries. This simplified unit belongs to the family of Artech Molten Metal Temperature Measuring Systems which are in use since 1987.
The MFP-200 is a wall mounting, mains operated instrument and is used with an 8 ft lance which is connected to the instrument by means of a cable of suitable length.
he Artech Foundry Pyrometer is a convenient handheld portable instrument for measuring the temperature of molten metals, both ferrous and non-ferrous. The instrument has a lance extension at the end of which can be fitted expendable thermocouple tips or re-usable multi-dip thermocouples. An automatic timing sequence initiates measurement when the thermocouple is immersed into the molten metal. The measuring sequence ends with the peak temperature reading being latched on display and a beeper signals the end of measurement.
The Artech ASP-500 Pyrometer for Molten Steel combines several advanced features into a single compactuser-friendly instrument. The output is presented on a larg edisplay visible from a distance.The microprocessor controlled unit has a unique measurement and timing algorithm which guides the user through the measurement sequence with visual indication and hooter output. All these features are provided in a single enclosure,eliminating the need for a mounting panel. The ASP-500 is mains operated and can be either wall or shelf mounted.
The Remote Display Unit is a useful accessory which provides an easy to read numeric display of temperature recorded. The display numerals consists of LEDs assembled in an array to form 6 inch high characters. When a reading is taken, this unit receives serially pulsed data on a simple two wire connection. The Temperature is clearly displayed and if the unit is mounted at a suitable height, the reading can be visible to all on the shop floor.
The lamps indicate “READY”, “MEASUREMENT IN PROGESS” AND “MEASUREMENT OVER” , using the relay outputs of the Model AUP-500. These indications are of great help to the operator, as they indicate whether the thermocouple is properly inserted into the lance before taking a reading and also whether the reading was completed without thermocouple burn out; in case the thermocouple becomes open before the sampling process is complete “Measurement Over” will not be indicated.
The CP-04 wall-mounting Panel is an optional accessory. It houses the AUP-500L, Molten Steel Temperature Measuring System. It has the three Status Indication Lamps, Hooter and Thermocouple socket on the front panel. The panel is completely wired. The opening is from the front.
