Scanning Hot Metal Detector

Rota-Sonde DC2000

Benefits

• Easy alignment of the sensor.
• Assured detection regardless of the transverse position of the product.
• Precise detection thanks to the narrow lateral field.
• Reliable detection because of the small analysing beam.
• Photosensitive cell that best suits application in rolling mills, despite scale and steam.
• Very low maintenance, virtually nil in some cases.

Presentation

The Rota-Sonde DC2000 is a scanning sensor, which is sensitive to the infrared radiation emitted by hot products.

It is a self-contained detector including :

• An optoelectronic case with a protecting hood of the viewing port and a connector.
• A cooling plate with an adjustable mounting stand.

Because of its design and particularly its cast aluminium case, the Rota-Sonde DC2000 is specially adapted for the harsh environment of the Steel Industry (vibrations, heat, vapour and dust).

Operating principle

The detection field is scanned by a rotating polygonal mirror which reflects the infrared radiation from the product to the photocell
