ST150 is a single-channel silicon-based thermopile from Dexter, delivering a low temperature coefficient of responsivity of -0.04%/°C. The low-cost detector has a high output voltage with a quick time constant of 38ms.
It is supplied in a TO-5 package. In addition, it exhibits a very short thermal shock response to changes in ambient temperature.
Benefits
The key benefits of the ST150 include:
High output
Low cost
Large active area of 1.5 x 1.5mm
Options
The options available include:
A range of optical filter options are available
ST60R Micro version provides an economical (20% tolerance) poly-silicon resistor to be employed as a PTC thermistor
Internal 30kΩ 5% NTC chip thermistor offers ambient package temperature measurement
Internal aperture accurately defines active area for applications with FOV and/or spot size requirements
Applications
The ST150 is suitable for the following applications:
Gas analysis
Fire detection
Non-contact temperature measurement
