IR Supressor

lakmalp

Hi,

I have to build a sensor circuit to measure temperatures up to 2000°C. I searched for an IR sensor for this and it seems they are very costly.

Is there a way to suppress the incoming IR radiation from the source and direct it to a sensor having lower temperature sensing ranges?

I would appreciate if someone can be of help.
