Raytek FLUKE RAYCI1A Infrared Temperature Sensor, 12–24VDC, Type J Thermocouple Output, 0–115°C (32–240°F), IP65 Stainless Housing

Condition: New – Includes sensor, mounting nuts, 1m cable, and user manual.

The Raytek RAYCI1A Infrared Temperature Sensor by Fluke/Raytek is an industrial-grade, non-contact infrared sensor designed for temperature monitoring in harsh environments. It provides a Type J thermocouple analog output, making it a direct replacement for contact probes in 4-wire systems without modification. With a rugged IP65 (NEMA 4) stainless steel enclosure, the RAYCI1A performs reliably in ambient temperatures up to 70°C (160°F) without cooling, or 260°C (500°F) with an optional cooling jacket.

This sensor is ideal for continuous, maintenance-free monitoring of processes involving materials like plastics, rubber, textiles, metals, and more.
