Abstract
A sensor (30) for detecting electromagnetic radiation comprises a sensor element (10), a housing (31, 33) in which the sensor element is disposed, and a radiation inlet window (35) provided in the housing and closed by a material (32) transmissible for the radiation to be detected. The transmissible material (32) is fixed to the housing by fixation means (38) not disposed in the field of view of the sensor element.
Claims15
Sensor for detecting electromagnetic radiation, particularly in the infrared range, comprising:
- one or more sensor elements for detecting electromagnetic radiation,
- a housing in which the sensor element is disposed, and
- a radiation inlet window provided in the housing and closed by a material transmissible for the radiation to be detected,
- characterised in that
- the transmissible material is fixed to the housing by fixation means not disposed in the field of view of the sensor element.
Sensor for detecting electromagnetic radiation, particularly in the infrared range, comprising:
- one or more sensor elements for detecting electromagnetic radiation,
- a housing in which the sensor element is disposed, and
- a radiation inlet window provided in the housing,
- characterised in that
- scantly emitting inner surfaces are provided in the field of view of the sensor element inside the housing.
Sensor for detecting electromagnetic radiation, particularly in the infrared range, comprising;
- one or more sensor elements for detecting electromagnetic radiation,
