Dexter Research Center has been the pioneer and leader in infrared thermopile detectors since our founding in 1977. Today we provide the world’s largest selection of thermopiles. These include our high-quality, high-output Bismuth-Antimony thin-film and silicon-based radiation sensing thermopile detectors.
We specialize in customizing our infrared thermopile detectors to your precise specifications. You get superior detector performance, which in turn provides superior system performance. We also offer integrated solutions including digital radiometers, thermal imaging arrays, and passive presence detection.
Dexter’s thermopiles are passive infrared detectors used for non-contact temperature measurements in tympanic thermometers, automobile climate control sensing systems, process monitoring, household appliances, and radiometers. Other applications include gas analysis in medical, automotive, and petroleum industries; hazard control including flame and explosion detection; and horizon sensors for scientific, space, and hobbyist applications.
The full line of Dexter detectors, in one handy matrix.
Dexter’s state-of-the-art SLA32, a 2×16 staggered-element silicon-based thermopile array, offers a proven design with no readout electronics for spectral analysis and line temperature measurements.
Dexter’s integrated solutions help solve your infrared measurement challenges with our infrared non-contact temperature sensing module.
These concealed, passive infrared motion sensors provide a versatile solution ideal for exit/entry control, guard tour detection, personnel motion detection, automatic time delays, and spot detection.
