PIDTEK offers modulated infrared sources that complement our IR detector products. The nanostructured infrared sources are made by Infrasolid GmbH.
 
Based on a patented nanotechnology and a patented emitter set-up made of a high-melting metal, the free-standing monolithic radiating element and the nanostructured emitter surface offer numerous advantages in many applications.
 
Infrasolid has three series of black-body infrared sources. These are:

HISbasic series ◆ TO-39/TO-5 package ◆ 600°C Radiating element temperature ◆ 200 mW Optical output power
HISpower series ◆ TO-8 housing ◆ 630°C Radiating element temperature ◆ 1W Optical output power
HISsmd series ◆ SMD housing ◆ 600 °C Radiating element temperature ◆ 50 mW Optical output power

 
Typical applications for our emitters include:

◆ Spectroscopy/ non-dispersive infrared spectroscopy (NDIR)

◆ Medical (CO2 / other gases monitoring, breath /vapor analyzing)

◆ Automotive / Transportation (breath alcohol testing / exhaust monitoring)

◆ HVAC (Demand controlled ventilation, refrigerant monitoring)

◆ Safety / Industrial / Environment Control (combustion gas analyzers, gas detection, air pollution)
