Description

The ZTP-135L thermopile sensor operates on the principle of detecting infrared radiation emitted by a target object, converting it into a proportional voltage signal via a series of thermocouple junctions (thermopile). The integrated thermistor provides precise compensation for the sensor’s own ambient temperature, critical for accurate absolute temperature calculation. This hermetically-sealed TO-46 package ensures long-term stability and protection from environmental contaminants.

Designed for precision in compact applications, the sensor outputs a low-level signal that requires amplification and signal conditioning via an operational amplifier circuit. Its fast 25ms time constant enables monitoring of rapidly changing surface temperatures, making it ideal for responsive control systems and handheld measurement devices.

Key Features

  • Hermetically-sealed TO-46 metal can package for environmental durability.
  • Integrated NTC thermistor for real-time ambient temperature compensation.
  • High-sensitivity thermopile with a flat, broadband IR filter.
  • Fast thermal response with a 25ms time constant.
  • Optimized performance-to-cost ratio for high-volume applications.
  • Compact footprint (9mm x 30mm) for space-constrained designs.

Applications

  • Medical-grade ear and forehead thermometers.
  • Industrial non-contact temperature monitoring on moving parts.
  • Energy management in appliances (ovens, HVAC systems).
  • Overheating protection circuits in consumer electronics.
  • Portable environmental and surface temperature scanners.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output signal of the ZTP-135L sensor and how do I interface with it?

The ZTP-135L provides a low-level DC voltage output proportional to the detected infrared radiation. This signal, along with the resistance reading from the integrated thermistor, must be amplified and processed by an external op-amp circuit and microcontroller ADC to calculate the target object's temperature.

How does the integrated thermistor improve measurement accuracy?

The built-in NTC thermistor measures the sensor's own ambient temperature. Since the thermopile output is affected by its casing temperature, this compensation data is essential for algorithms to calculate the absolute temperature of the external target object, correcting for environmental drift.

What is the field of view (FOV) for this sensor?

The ZTP-135L features a wide field of view typical of TO-46 package thermopiles. For precise spot measurements, an external lens or aperture may be required. Consult the official Amphenol datasheet for specific optical characteristics and recommended mounting distances.

Can this sensor be used for body temperature measurement?

Yes, the ZTP-135L is suitable for non-contact body temperature applications, such as in ear thermometers, due to its clinical temperature range and fast response. Proper calibration against a reference and optical path design are necessary for medical-grade accuracy.
