Disposal
Dispose of the product properly when it is no longer usable: infrared measuring devices include electri-
cal and electronic waste and have to be recycled or disposed environmentally friendly or to send to the
manufacturer for disposal.
1.8
Intended Use
The infrared temperature switches Polaris are mainly used for non-contact detection of hot metal parts
and triggering a switching operation. They are equipped with 2 switching contacts with adjustable
switching temperatures. Also the switching status is indicated by LEDs on the rear panel. A laser target-
ing light can be used to align the devices to the measuring object.
Polaris-temperature switches measure in the short wave spectral range and are therefore mainly used
for measuring of metals, ceramics, graphite, etc.
A serial interface connection to to a PC is required configure the devices. The configuration itself will be
done via PC and
SensorTools
software or via interface commands.
