1.1 Introduction
The OS550 Series Industrial Infrared (IR) Thermometers provide
non-contact temperature measurement up to 2500°F (1371°C). They
offer effective solutions for many non-contact temperature
applications, including the following:
Predictive Maintenance: Tracking temperature shifts
which indicate pending failure in solenoid valves.
Energy Auditing: Locating wall insulation voids to reduce
building heating costs.
Food Processing: Taking accurate temperature readings
without direct contact with the food or packaging material.
The IR thermometer provides a custom backlit dual digital LCD
that displays both current and minimum, maximum, average or
differential temperatures. This versatile instrument provides:
Measurable target distances from 5" to
approximately 200'
Emissivity adjustable from 0.1 to 1.00 in 0.01 steps provides
ease of use when measuring a variety of surfaces.
Continuous temperature measurement up to 4 times per
second.
Audible and visual alarms. The high and low alarm points
are set via the keypad.
Analog output, 1 mV/degree,4-20mA or 0-5VDC
which allows interfacing with data acquisition equipment
(including chart recorders, dataloggers and computers)
RS232 serial communication to a PC or printer. This allows
downloading data for further analysis (OS552, OS553 and
OS554 only).
Ambient target temperature compensation. This provides
more accuracy for measuring low emissivity targets.
Record up to 100 temperature data points. Review the
recorded data on the thermometer LCD, as well as
downloading the data to a PC (OS553 and OS554 only).
Last temperature recall.
Backlit display useful in low ambient light conditions
Laser Sighting is optional.
