Keeping up with the trend toward miniaturization, InfraTec GmbH developed a two-channel detector in a TO-18 housing. The LIM-102 has detector elements that are 1.4 mm x 1.0 mm in size and operates in voltage mode.
This pyrodetector is optimized for operation in the frequency range between 1-5 Hz. The aperture has a diameter of 3.3 mm.
The first prototypes were assembled with the following filter types: 4.27 µm / 170 nm (CO2) and 3.98 µm / 90 nm (reference). The plan is to provide filter combinations for the measurement of other gases, such as methane.
