Are you familiar with the Exergen IRt/c series infrared temperature sensors? If not, meet CleverIR—a global supplier of Exergen industrial IRt/c and the industry’s leading producer of non-contact infrared temperature sensing solutions.

Who is CleverIR?

CleverIR delivers innovative temperature monitoring technologies that serve a wide range of industries, including agriculture, medical, industrial, semiconductor, printing, robotics, and environmental technology.

Their products are assembled, tested, and packaged in Watertown, Massachusetts, with European operations based in Veghel, the Netherlands.

What Makes Infrared Temperature Sensors So Important?

Every object emits infrared energy relative to its temperature. Infrared temperature sensors measure that energy—without ever touching the object—by detecting and converting it into an electrical signal that’s translated into an accurate temperature reading.

This technology is essential in automation and manufacturing environments where precision, safety, and efficiency are key.

Introducing the New ACE Sensor

CleverIR’s newest innovation, the ACE sensor, is designed to make temperature sensing simpler, smarter, and more adaptable than ever before.

One Mechanical Platform. Infinite Possibilities.

The ACE sensor offers a single mechanical platform that’s software-configurable for any OEM application. This means OEMs can fine-tune and calibrate the sensor for specific uses without needing to redesign hardware—cutting down on design complexity, procurement challenges, and cost.

Proven Performance Across Every Model

Each ACE sensor provides accurate and repeatable non-contact temperature measurement, ensuring reliable performance in every environment. Its compact form factor makes it easy to integrate into tight spaces, while the durable construction is built to withstand demanding industrial conditions.

The sensor maintains a stable output even under changing ambient environments, providing consistent readings regardless of fluctuations. Installation is simple, requiring no maintenance, which makes ownership both straightforward and cost-effective over time.

All ACE models share the same mechanical design, while software settings adapt each unit to its specific target market and application—offering custom performance at a competitive price.

Standard Configurations

The ACE sensor is available with fields of view of 16°, 46°, and 87° to match different application needs. It can accurately measure temperatures ranging from 0–100 °C (32–212 °F) and 0–250 °C (32–482 °F).Output signal options include 0–5 V, 0–10 V, 4–20 mA, and UART, providing flexibility for various system requirements.

Simplified Design. Configurable Precision. Industrial Strength.

With the ACE series, CleverIR redefines what flexibility means in temperature sensing—one hardware design, multiple configurations, endless applications.
