Temperature is one of the key process parameters in metal melting and casting.
For a foundry, knowing the actual temperature of molten iron or molten steel before pouring helps operators make better decisions about the melting and casting process.
The CYY-W660 Molten Metal Thermometer is designed for rapid temperature measurement of molten metals in foundries, melting furnaces and metallurgical production environments.
Unlike a conventional wired wall-mounted temperature measurement system, CYY-W660 uses wireless transmission between the portable furnace-side measuring instrument and the large digital display.
This allows the operator to perform the measurement at the furnace while the temperature result is simultaneously displayed on the large screen.
For cast iron production, molten iron temperature is an important process parameter.
A typical measurement operation uses the portable measuring instrument with a compatible rapid thermocouple probe.
The probe is immersed into the molten metal. When the measurement is completed, the instrument automatically holds the measured temperature and wirelessly transmits the result to the large display.
This creates a simple measurement workflow:
Measure at the furnace → Hold the temperature → Wireless transmission → Large-screen display
For foundry managers, the large display can make the latest measurement result easier to observe without requiring them to stand beside the furnace.
Steel melting applications require temperature instruments capable of working at higher temperatures.
This is particularly important for customers looking for:
molten steel thermometer
molten steel temperature measurement
steel liquid temperature meter
high-temperature furnace thermometer
steel foundry temperature measurement equipment
CYY-W660 is not limited to iron foundries.
With the appropriate thermocouple configuration, the system can also be applied to selected non-ferrous molten-metal measurement applications.
The manufacturer's product information lists steel, iron and copper liquid among applicable thermocouple applications.
For customers working with copper or other non-ferrous metals, the correct thermocouple type should be selected according to the actual melting temperature and application.
The CYY-W660 receiver uses a 5-inch digital display with approximately 128 mm character height.
This large display is one of the main differences between CYY-W660 and ordinary handheld molten metal thermometers.
The handheld measuring instrument stays with the operator.
The large display can be installed at a suitable position in the workshop.
This provides two different advantages in one system:
Portable measurement + long-distance temperature visibility
That combination is particularly useful for production environments where the furnace operator and production supervisor do not need to stand in exactly the same location.
One of the practical advantages of CYY-W660 is that the measuring gun does not need to remain physically connected to the large display.
The CYY-W330 wireless transmitter sends the measured temperature to the CYY-W660 receiver.
The manual describes the system as a combination of:
CYY-W330 wireless transmitting handheld temperature instrument
CYY-W660 wireless receiving large-screen display
Compatible rapid thermocouple
The supplied system therefore combines a mobile measurement point with a fixed visual display point.
CYY-W660 can store more than 1,000 historical temperature measurements.
Operators can search historical records by date and review previous measurement results. An optional printer can also print the displayed measurement data.
This can be useful when a foundry wants to move beyond a simple “read the temperature and forget it” workflow.
Historical measurement records can help production personnel review:
Furnace temperature measurements
Measurement time
Previous batches
Temperature changes during production
For plants that require more data handling, the system also has an optional computer connection function according to the manual.
Imagine an iron foundry using a medium-frequency induction furnace.
The furnace operator needs to check molten iron temperature before pouring.
With a conventional wired system, the cable between the measuring gun and display may restrict movement around the furnace.
With the CYY-W660 wireless system:
The operator takes the wireless measuring instrument to the furnace.
A compatible rapid thermocouple is inserted into the molten metal.
The temperature is measured rapidly.
The measured value is automatically held.
The temperature is transmitted wirelessly to the large display.
The production team can read the temperature on the large screen.
The manual specifies approximately 1 second response time and 1°C resolution, while the actual measurement range depends on the selected thermocouple.

Foundry furnace-front temperature measurement
