Single Sensors - HMSZ11-Series

The worldwide smallest Thermopile Mini Sensor, comprising a new type CMOS compatible sensor chip plus a thermistor reference chip, features good sensitivity, small temperature coefficient of sensitivity as well as high reproducibility and reliability. The sensor is available in a new transistor outline package smaller than TO-46, equipped with an IR transmitting filter window. The sensor can be equipped with customized filter upon request.

Single Thermopile Sensors - HMS-Series, HTS-Series

The HMS- and HTS-Series of CMOS compatible thermopile sensor chips feature good sensitivity, small temperature coefficient of sensitivity as well as high reproducibility and reliability. HMS-Sensors are housed in TO-46, HTS-Sensors are offered in TO-39 packages. The smaller package sizes benefit applications in which sensor mounting is a critical parameter. The HMS-M types offer the possibility to integrate an infrared lens into a TO-46 housing and to reduce the field of view accordingly. The smaller chip TP1 is well suited for temperature measurements which require a precise measuring spot whereas the chip type TP2 offers higher signal and TP3 offers even the highest signal. Additionally Heimann Sensor can offer integrated thermopile sensors (HIS-series) combining a thermopile sensor chip with an ASIC in a TO-39 or TO-46 housing.

The HTSE Multichannel Sensors comprise two independent sensor chips for a multichannel gas concentration measurement. Typically one of the optical channels contain a gas specific filter window and the other channel, equipped with a filter with center wavelength where no gas absorption occurs, serves as reference. Of course we can also provide Multichannel Sensors with customer filters (thickness should be close to 0.5 mm). The sensors are offered in TO-39 housings.

These special sensors can be operated up to 180 �XC.

Integrated Sensors

The Heimann integrated sensors are thermopile sensor, low-noise amplifier and temperature reference integrated in the same housing. The devices are available in standard TO-39 packages (HIS-series), TO-46-packages (HMM-series) or SMD packages (HCM-series). The signal conditioning ASIC delivers analog voltages and can be used in a wide supply range of 2.7V to 5.5V. The integrated sensors come with factory adjusted gain factors and can be equipped with various available or customized filters.

Analog Sensor Modules

Heimann analog sensor modules are non-contact thermometers comprising a high sensitive thermopile sensor and a signal conditioning analog circuit in the same housing. The signal conditioning ASIC delivers analog voltages in the range 0 to 5V. Sensor modules are available with different optics and factory calibrated temperature adjustments. The devices can be supplied in TO-39 packages with 6 connections or direct mounted on pcb with connector.

Digital Sensor Modules

Heimann digital sensor modules are non-contact thermometers comprising a high sensitive thermopile sensor and a digital processing unit in the same housing. The digital sensor module comes with a digital SMBus or PWM output. It is available as preset 3V or 5V versions. The devices can be supplied in TO-39 packages with 4 connections or mounted on pcb with connector.

Infrared Sensor Arrays with Analog Output

Our HTPA series consists of 2D arrays with different pixel counts: 8x8 elements 16x16 elements 32x31 elements 64x62 elements (in development) These discrete sensors can be configured with different kinds of lenses, resulting in a variety of field of views (FOV). Furthermore, we do customer specific optics on request. The small dimensions and the very low power consumption makes the HTPA series very attractive for handhelds and battery powered solutions. The sensor chip contains next to the sensor elements integrated low noise chopper amplifiers and low pass filters temperature reference, voltage reference and an analogous output. Some types also provide an digital output, powered by their integrated 12bit ADC.

Infrared Sensor Array with I2C-compatible-Bus Interface

16x4 elements

We offer thermopile array modules with electrical interface for various applications.

Heimann Sensor offers calibrated HTPA-Modules for thermal imaging. Those modules can be configured with several lenses for different applications. As Interface you can choose between Ethernet (UDP) or UART. It is possible to get a temperature or voltage stream, or to get single frames. Furthermore, these data can be visualized by the Heimann Sensor ArraySoft GUI.

Fast and easy Solution

We offer thermopile array application sets and modules as a fast and easy imaging solution on your PC. The connection can be done via Ethernet, for industrial applications we offer a UART-Interface (TTL-Level). The sets are delivered with a graphical user interface for visualisation. Our fully monolithic arrays are the pathfinders to application fields like thermal imaging, industrial temperature monitoring, hot spot detection, fire- or person detection. Monolithic means micro-machined sensor elements combined with an application specific integrated circuit. So it is possible to use very small housings like TO8. These low- cost camera- alike sensors can be inserted in small systems and occupy little space.

These low- cost camera-alike sensors can be inserted in small systems and occupy little space. Therefore, it is possible to use very small housings like TO-39. Due to the significant price drop compared to micro bolometers these small imaging systems open completely new application fields.
