CAP-HT-100 Series: Revolutionizing High-Temperature Inspections

Meet the New Standard in High-Temperature Inspections

Industrial systems in high-temperature environments demand robust solutions for monitoring and maintenance. Whether it’s a furnace operating at 1832°F (1000°C) or an industrial oven in constant use, maintaining safety, efficiency, and equipment longevity is critical.

IRISS is proud to introduce the CAP-HT-100 Series, a groundbreaking line of inspection windows engineered specifically for extreme environments. These innovative tools allow technicians to safely and efficiently perform high-temperature inspections, offering compatibility with infrared thermography and Gold Cup inspections to address the unique challenges of these conditions. By incorporating cutting-edge features, they ensure accurate temperature readings and reliable performance in extreme environments.

The CAP-HT-100 Series represents the next generation of inspection technology, designed to help industries achieve safer, smarter, and more reliable operations.

The Challenge of High-Temperature Inspections

High-temperature environments create unique challenges for equipment monitoring and maintenance. Over time, thermal stress can degrade materials, accelerate wear, and increase the likelihood of failures. Traditional inspections often involve shutting down systems—disrupting operations—or exposing technicians to dangerous conditions.

Accurate temperature readings and precise temperature measurements are also difficult to achieve in such environments. Reflective surfaces, emissivity variations, and extreme heat can distort data, making it harder to detect temperature patterns or inefficiencies. Tools like Gold Cup inspections, designed for localized temperature accuracy, and durable inspection windows, which provide sealed monitoring capabilities, are essential for overcoming these hurdles.

Gold Cup Inspections: Precision Redefined

Gold Cup inspections offer a specialized approach for measuring temperature and achieving accurate temperature readings in high-heat environments. By using a concave reflective surface, Gold Cup tools shield sensors from external light and environmental interference, delivering highly accurate temperature readings even on reflective or non-uniform surfaces.

Gold Cup inspections are critical for industries like metal forging and glass manufacturing, where maintaining specific temperature ranges directly impacts product quality. By integrating this technology into maintenance routines, facilities can improve process reliability while minimizing risks.
