It can communicate the temperature or have settings configured using the I2C bus. The module has 3 basic modes of operation. The sensor has a built-in optical filter that cuts off the visible and near infrared light to minimize their impact on the reading. If measuring the surface temperature of an an object like an IC or rotating shaft, a measuring distance of about 1 cm is typically used. The appropriate measurement distance therefore depends on how wide of a field of view is desired. The sensor has a 90 degree field of view and the reported temperature is the average temperature within that field of view. The sensor itself is rated for -40☌ to +125☌. It has measurement a range of -70☌ (-94☏) to +380☌ (+720☏) with an accuracy of 0.5☌ around room temperature. This can be very useful for monitoring the temperature of something moving like a spinning motor shaft or objects on a moving conveyor built for instance.īecause the sensor is not necessarily exposed to the same temperature that it is measuring, it can read a wide range of temperatures. The main difference between this and most other thermometers is that the temperature reading is taken without contacting the object whose temperature is being monitored. Temperature measurement range: -70☌ to +380☌.Non-contact measurement perfect for measuring temperature of moving objects.KEY FEATURES OF GY-906 MLX90614 NON-CONTACT PRECISION THERMOMETER MODULE: GY-906 MLX90614 Non-Contact Precision Thermometer Module.The GY-906 MLX90614 is a high precision infrared non-contact thermometer module with I2C interface and 5V or 3.3V operation.
