Description
The DFRobot TS01 is a remote non-contact infrared thermal sensor designed to measure the surface temperature of objects without physical contact. By detecting infrared intensity, it accurately calculates temperature while ensuring reliability through built-in temperature compensation.
Sealed within a durable metal housing, the TS01 is resistant to impact, dust, and water (IP65-rated), making it suitable for harsh and demanding industrial environments. The sensor is factory-calibrated across a wide range, ensuring stable and precise performance. With an operating temperature range of -40℃ to 85℃, it can measure object temperatures from -70℃ to 380℃ with an accuracy of up to ±0.5℃.
The TS01 includes a long-wave pass optical filter to eliminate visible and near-infrared interference, ensuring immunity to ambient light and sunlight. With a narrow 5° field of view (FOV), it can detect heat sources (10cm diameter) from a distance of up to 116cm, making it highly effective for targeted measurements.
Additionally, shielded wiring reduces external electromagnetic interference while minimizing the sensor’s own radiation emissions, enabling stable performance even in complex industrial environments.
