MEMS Thermal Sensors - D6T-44L-06

Product Specification

D6T-44L-06 MEMS Thermal Sensors Feature：

    MEMS Thermal (IR^*1 sensor) measures the surface temperature of objects without touching them when the thermopile element absorbs the amount of radiant energy from the object.

    • Low noise：Achieving the highest level of SNR^*2 in the world^*3

    • Easy connection：Converts sensor signal to digital temperature output allowing easy use of microcontroller

    • Compact size：Space-saving design, well-suited for embedded applications 

  

    *1. IR: Infrared Ray

     *2. SNR: Signal-to-Noise Ratio. Compares the level of a signal to the level of background noise

     *3. As of December 2017, according to OMRON research

 

D6T-44L-06 MEMS Thermal Sensors Sensing：

1.Human Detection

    D6T series sensors can detect human presence by sensing changes in human body temperature with respect to the surrounding temperature.

     Application fields：

    • Air conditioners

    • lighting systems

    • security systems

    • nursing care and monitoring equipment

    D6T series sensors can detect the slightest temperature changes that can be used in variety of applications including energy-efficient home appliances and security systems. The sensors can also be used in the application fields of HEMS (Home Energy Management System) and BEMS (Building Energy Management System).

 

2.Object Detection

    D6T sensors can detect objects by pinpointing the target object temperature.

     Application fields：

    • Industrial equipment

    • non-contact thermometers

    • refrigerators

    • microwave ovens

    • IH cooking heaters

    • data centers

    D6T sensors let you measure temperature without the need to physically touch the object. This allows measuring temperature where it was not possible for contact thermal sensors due to space shortage. The sensors can be used in a wide range of applications including FEMS (Factory Energy Management System).
