We Manufacture your Infrared Detectors

Infrared Sensor Tech­no­logy

At the company’s headquarters in Dresden we develop and manufacture pyroelectric infrared detectors in a large variety and of highest quality. They are used by our customers for high-precision gas analysis as well as for fire and flame detection. Local dedicated subsidiaries support our clients in the United States and in the United Kingdom.

New InfraTec Building Complete

In April 2024, the process of constructing the new extension building at InfraTec GmbH Infrarotsensorik und Messtechnik reached its completion after less than two and a half years. In addition to new offices, spacious production and development areas for thermography cameras and infrared detectors have been established over a total area of 2700 m².

PYRONEER - High-Performance-Detectors

DLaTGS - The Next Detector Generation

Pyroelectric detectors based on high-quality, single-crystalline lithium tantalate (LiTaO3) for analytical devices have been part of the InfraTec portfolio for over 20 years. Now InfraTec delivers the performance boost for FTIR spectroscopy with the high-performance, pyroelectrically sensitive material DLaTGS (deuterated L-alanine doped triglycine sulphate).

Gas Analysis

The range of applications of pyroelectric detectors for gas analysis is very extensive, ranging from environmental measurements to the detection of gas leaks, steel analysis and medical patient monitoring while under anesthesia.

Infrared Flame Sensor

Use InfraTec’s fail-safe and consistently stable pyroelectric detectors for detecting typical spectral radiation, which is caused by burning organic substances.

Infrared Spectroscopy

Infrared Spec­tro­scopy

In spectroscopes, very special pyroelectric detectors by InfraTec are used. Essential for this application are the uniform absorption characteristics over a wide wavelength range. This is made possible by a special absorption layer on the pyroelectric chip.

All branches and application areas

Detector Search

InfraTec offers different product groups including approximately 50 standard pyroelectric detectors. Detectors with reduced microphone technology and integrated operational amplifier as well as digital detectors are part of our product range.
