Why CTlaser?

 See exactly what you’re measuring

The integrated double laser aiming system marks the true measurement spot and size at any distance, eliminating guesswork and improving accuracy.

Measure the smallest targets with confidence

With spot sizes down to sub-millimetre ranges and optical resolutions up to 75:1, CTlaser sensors are built for pinpoint measurement in tight spaces.

Fast response for dynamic processes

From milliseconds to microseconds, CTlaser models support rapid measurement, perfect for high speed manufacturing and automation.

Flexible for a wide range of materials

Multiple spectral ranges are available, enabling accurate measurement of metals, plastics, ceramics, and materials with changing emissivity.

Built for industrial environments

With robust sensor heads and separate electronics, CTlaser systems are designed for reliable performance in harsh conditions and fixed installations.

Key Features

  • Dual laser sighting for precise target alignment
  • High optical resolution for small or distant targets

  • Wide temperature ranges (from sub-zero to > 1400°C depending on model)

  • Ultra-fast response times for high speed processes

  • Two piece design (sensor + electronics) for flexible installation

  • Multiple outputs including analogue and digital interfaces (PLC integration ready)

  • Configurable optics and focus options for application-specific setups

Typical Applications

The CTlaser Series is ideal for industries where precision targeting and fast response are critical:

  • Metal processing and forming

  • Plastics and packaging lines

  • Glass manufacturing

  • Automotive production

  • Food processing and packaging

  • Research and development environments

  • High-speed manufacturing processes

How It Works

CTlaser pyrometers measure temperature using infrared energy emitted from an object, eliminating the need for contact.

The standout feature is the dual laser system, which visually outlines the exact measurement area ensuring the sensor is always aligned correctly with the target.

This makes CTlaser especially effective for:

  • Small objects

  • Moving targets

  • Hard-to-reach or challenging locations

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the CTlaser Series different from other infrared sensors?

The CTlaser Series features a dual laser sighting system, which shows the exact measurement spot and size. This removes guesswork and ensures you’re measuring the right area, especially useful for small or moving targets.

When should I use a CTlaser sensor?

CTlaser sensors are ideal when precision targeting is critical, such as measuring small components, fast moving products, or processes where accuracy directly impacts quality and performance.

Can CTlaser sensors measure shiny or reflective materials?

Yes. With the right model. Certain CTlaser variants are designed for low emissivity materials like metals, using specialised spectral ranges to improve accuracy on reflective surfaces.

How accurate are CTlaser infrared pyrometers?

CTlaser sensors are built for high-accuracy industrial measurement, with fast response times and stable readings. When correctly configured for emissivity and setup, they deliver reliable, repeatable results.

Are CTlaser sensors suitable for harsh environments?

Yes. The two-piece design (sensor and electronics) allows the sensing head to be installed in tough environments while keeping electronics protected. This makes them well suited for industrial applications.

How do I choose the right CTlaser model for my application?

Selecting the right model depends on factors like temperature range, target size, material type, and mounting distance. Our team can help assess your application and recommend the best-fit solution.

What is a dual laser infrared pyrometer and how does it work?

A dual laser infrared pyrometer uses two laser points to outline the exact measurement area. This helps operators clearly see the spot size and position, ensuring accurate, non-contact temperature readings, especially at longer distances.

What is the difference between a pyrometer and an infrared thermometer?

A pyrometer is a type of infrared thermometer typically used in fixed, industrial installations for continuous monitoring. Infrared thermometers can also be handheld, but pyrometers like the CTlaser Series are designed for high precision, process critical applications.
