A two-channel or a one-channel compensated thin-film thermopile in a TO-8 package. Each active area is 4mm x 0.6mm. Offers high output with excellent signal-to-noise ratio. An internal aperture minimizes channel-to-channel crosstalk increasing sensitivity.
Gas analysis, non-contact temperature measurement, fire detection / suppression.
High output, low noise and dual channel in a TO-8 package.
