What is Calibration of the Sensor?
Calibration of the sensor is the relationship between the physical measurement variable input and the signal variable output for that specific sensor. Typically, a sensor or an entire instrument system is calibrated by providing a known physical input to the system and recording the output. The data is plotted on a calibration curve such as…

The Principle of an Optical Pyrometer Temperature Sensor
A heated object emits electromagnetic radiation. At temperatures below approximately 400 °C this radiation can be felt as heat. As the temperature rises, the object starts to emit visible radiation passing from red through yellow to white. Intuitively we can use this radiation to qualitatively measure temperature as illustrated in the table below: Temperature Colour…
