Silicon Based Thermopile Detector

Features:
A single-channel silicon-based thermopile with very high output for its small 0.6mm x 0.6mm active area in a small TO-18 package. Delivers a fast 18ms time constant in Argon encapsulation gas and even faster with Neon gas at 9ms.Delivers a very low Temperature Coefficient of Responsivity of -0.04%/°C.
Applications:
Excellent for non-contact temperature and gas analysis.
Benefit:
High output, small active area, fast time constant in a small package that has a higher cost.
Options:
  1. See Standard Windows and Filters (PDF) for list of optical filter options.
  2. See Thermopile Configuration Table for more options.
Datasheet:
For more detailed information see the datasheet
S60M TO-18 Data Sheet (PDF)

Specifications apply at 23°C with KBr Window and Argon encapsulating gas.
