Pegasus R Iss.07 – 08/13 

METHOD 

Evaluation of the Optical Bench 

 

The Pegasus 'R' item was set up in the 'normal' position as described above.  The controller temperature was set to 
1000 C.  After stabilisation the 3 freedom of movement were evaluated. 

 

a. 

Back & Forth

 

 

The optical pyrometer was moved back & forth by 100mm.  The following readings were obtained.
