Pacer adds rugged infrared light sources to portfolio
Pacer has signed an agreement with Swiss company Leister Process Technologies to distribute its Axetris range of rugged infrared light sources for advanced gas sensing applications in the mid-IR range.
Axetris IR sources are designed for compact IR gas detection modules where a high emissivity, high reliability and low power consumption are key requirements.
According to Pacer, Axetris IR sources are micro machined, electrically modulated thermal infrared emitters featuring true black body radiation characteristics, low power consumption, high emissivity and a long lifetime. The patented design is based on a resistive heating element integrated onto a thin dielectric membrane which is suspended on a micro machined silicon structure. All products are manufactured at Axetris' microtechnology clean room facilities in central Switzerland.
