The installation process consists of the following stages:
Preparation - Mechanical installation - Electrical installation
Please read the following sections thoroughly before proceeding with the installation.
PREPARATION
Ensure that the sensor is positioned so that it is focused on the target only.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE
The sensor is designed to operate in ambient temperatures from 0°C to 80°C.
Avoid thermal shock. Allow 20 minutes for the unit to adjust to large changes in ambient
temperature.
ATMOSPHERIC QUALITY
Smoke, fumes or dust can contaminate the lens and cause errors in temperature
measurement. In these types of environment, the air purge collar should be used to help keep
the lens clean.

OPTICS
The sensor may be used at longer
distances than shown, and will measure a
larger spot. The measurement accuracy is
not affected by the measurement distance.
There is no maximum measurement
distance provided the air between the
sensor and target is free of obstructions.
DISTANCE AND SPOT SIZE
Mount the sensor at a distance where the
measured spot size is smaller than the
target.
The spot size must not be larger than the
target.
