February 2002 - Non-Contact Temperature Control for Heat Sealing in Packaging Machinery

Exergen Corporation, Watertown, MA introduces methods to accurately control the temperature of rotating and moving stainless steel heaters without making contact with the heaters. Increase packaging speeds and improve process control in measuring rotating heaters and stationary strip heaters, by installing the IRt/c in the machine and following the recommended techniques.

The rugged IRt/c sensors need no power supply and are designed for years of trouble-free operation in industrial environments. No maintenance is required. The sealed IRt/c sensors can even be steam-cleaned. For "dusty" packaging environments, we recommend using the IRt/c.3X or other IRt/c models with built-in air-purge systems. With a small amount of air, the sensor window will remain clear
