1.1 General Introduction
This publication gives you the information required to safely operate Land
Cyclops 160B
portable thermometers.
It is important to check all equipment with which you have been supplied,
and read all the literature provided with the Land
Cyclops 160B
before using
the thermometer for the first time. Additionally, keep all supplied literature
readily available, for reference when the equipment is in general use.
The equipment must only be used and maintained by suitably trained
personnel, capable of following the procedures and guidelines given in this
User Guide and the
Cyclops 160B
Quick-Start Guide.
1.2 About Cyclops 160B Portable Thermometers
The Land
Cyclops 160B
is a highly accurate, portable, short wavelength
infrared thermometer, designed to measure and display temperatures in the
range 200 to 1400°C/392 to 2552°F. The thermometer can also measure and
display these temperatures in Kelvin and °Rankine.
The target temperature is measured and displayed in four simultaneous
measurement types: ‘Peak’, ‘Continuous’, ‘Average’ and ‘Valley’. You can
choose which of these measurements is displayed in the internal viewfinder
display.
The wide angle (9°) field of view and the small (1/3°) measurement
point ensure that the target is defined clearly and accurately. The focus
is continuously variable from one metre to infinity. Auxiliary lenses are
available, which provide close focus capability.
The emissivity compensation setting can be controlled digitally, via the simple
to use, icon-based menu system, which is available at the touch of a button.
The operating waveband has been chosen specifically to minimise errors due
to uncertainty in emissivity, whilst eliminating the effects of atmospheric
absorption.

features user-friendly ‘
