M18T Sensors
Powerful Temperature
Sensing Made Easy
Robust, Non-Contact Sensor for Monitoring
Temperature Changes
®
The T-GAGE M18T is a passive, non-contacting temperature-based device that combines
the ease-of-use of a photoelectric with the brain power of a more sophisticated sensor.
Using a thermopile device to reliably detect objects that are hotter or colder than the ambient
condition, the M18T is used to verify and inspect control processes.
Detects temperature difference between

object and surroundings
Monitors user defined window using

analog or discrete outputs
Senses temperatures from 0° to 300° C

Sensitive to temperature contrasts of 3° C

or more
Works even if target object is not moving

The T-GAGE M18T sensor is not intended for absolute temperature measurement or for safety-related fire detection use.
Requires no emitter, controller or external

amplifier
Features easy-to-use TEACH-mode

programming; no potentiometer
adjustments
Fully encapsulated electronics for harsh

sensing environments
Available in 3 models for different target

sizes and distances
