DPE12 Pyroelectric Infrared Detector

A room-temperature infrared detector assembly with an internal preamplifier and voltage output. Modulated illumination and synchronous detection support scanning infrared measurements.

DPE12 Pyroelectric Infrared Detector
DPE12

Best suited to

Mid- and long-wave infrared spectroscopy without cryogenic cooling.

Selecting a configuration

Use a modulated signal and select the acquisition time constant with the modulation frequency. Provide the desired wavelength interval when choosing windows and the complete optical path.

Measurement & configuration

  • Room-temperature pyroelectric sensing.
  • Built-in preamplifier.
  • Compatible with configured lock-in acquisition.
