IFM TW2000 is a non-contact infrared temperature sensor designed for accurate measurement of hot surfaces and objects. It provides a 0 to 999.5 °C measuring range with an 8 to 14 µm wavelength range. The sensor supports analogue and switching outputs for integration into automation systems. Its non-contact measurement method is useful where direct sensor contact is impractical. TW2000 is suitable for industrial temperature monitoring, process control and hot-object detection.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
TW2000 is an IFM infrared temperature sensor designed for non-contact temperature measurement. It detects thermal radiation from objects and converts it into useful temperature information. The model provides measurement from approximately 0 to 1000 °C. Its 8 to 14 µm wavelength range is suitable for a broad range of industrial hot-object applications. The sensor is designed for automated temperature monitoring and control.
The sensor uses infrared radiation rather than physical contact to determine object temperature. This makes it useful for moving, hot or inaccessible objects. TW2000 provides an analogue output together with a programmable switching output. Its M30 design supports industrial installation. The non-contact principle also reduces mechanical interference with the measured object.
TW2000 provides a 0 to 1000 °C nominal measuring range and an 8 to 14 µm wavelength range. Its response time is below 100 ms. Measurement uncertainty is specified as 1% of measured value with a minimum of 2 K under the stated reference conditions. The unit operates from 18 to 32 V DC and has IP65 protection.
Non-contact measurement allows temperature monitoring without touching the target. This is useful for hot, moving or difficult-to-reach objects. The analogue output supports continuous temperature monitoring while the switching output can support alarm functions. TW2000 can therefore contribute to automated process monitoring and quality control. Its industrial construction supports integration into production equipment.
