Optical System
The
optical system is equipped with a main objective to focus
the infrared energy into the infrared detector through a
single lens, a filter and a field stop which defines the
visual cone and therefore the target dimensions. As the
detector is placed in the focal point of the measurement
portion of the optical system no focusing operations are
required. A secondary, but extremely important objective,
is the correct pinpointing of the target as described below
Target
Pinpointing
A
correct aiming at the target is an important factor of a
non-contact thermometer. The immediate evaluation of the
smallest measurable target area is also a positive key factor
in many applications. The following types of pinpointing
are available :
- A "V" groove
on the up side of the instrument can be used stending
the arm.
- Single laser pointer
to identify the center of the target area.
- Circular spot laser
pointer to define, at distance, the measurable target
dimensions.
- Twin laser pointers
to define the diameter of the target area. Two versions
are available with crossing or parallel twin lasers.
It is easy to operate with
IRtec P thermometers using a laser pinpointing
system. You simply aim at the target and read its temperature.
Thermocouple
Input
To extend the operative capability
the instrument is optionally equipped with an auxiliary
input for thermocouple. This feature, when used with a calibrated
thermocouple, can be used to obtain accurate temperature
measurements eliminating the problems of emissivity and
the interfering light. The thermocouple can be used to obtain
an accurate temperature reading of the target material and
then these data are used to determine the compensation value
for the actual emissivity, including the interfering light,
within a range from 0.10 to 1.00.
Analog
Output
An analog output (1 mV/°C/°F) is optionally available to
drive an external analog input device (eg. a potentiometric
or hybrid recorder) for long term trend profiling and tests.
In this case the instrument can be powered directly from
mains using the external power supply module.
Logging
Mode
The instrument can be equipped
with an internal memory to store up to 500 input data. Two
types of data acquisitions can be selected by the user.
- Continuous acquisition:
The operator can select the interval time between each
acquisition and store progressively the input data in
the Tag file or can manually, step by step, give the
acquisition instruction
-
Acquisition
by dedicated tag: Standard Agencies and Quality Auditors
require the collection, organization and availability
of traceability documents. A supporting software is
available to transfer a selection of plant inspections
from a PC to the internal memory of the instrument in
order to simplify field check and select the appropriate
tag number. Dedicated input data are memory stored and
downloaded into a PC to document the inspection activity.
Data can be saved on disks, viewed and printed in a
numeric or graphic mode.
Calculated
Measurements
For the
measurement of unstable input signals by a progressive averaging
with a programmable average weight. In addition the operator
can select average, minimum, maximum, Tmax -Tmin, differential.
EMC
Conformity
The instrument case, made
in shock-resistant injection moulded ABS + polycarbonate
has an internal metal coating to fulfil the prevision of
the directive 89/336/CEE Electromagnetic Compatibility.
See Appendix A1 for the copy of EMC Declaration of Conformity.
Report
of Calibration
Each IRtec portable IR thermometer is factory calibrated
and certified against Eurotron Standards, that are periodically
certified by an International recognized Laboratory, and
shipped with a Report of Calibration stating the nominal
and actual values and the deviation errors.
Logging
Data Manager
LogMan software allows the IRtec users to set and prepare
the infrared thermometers to acquire tha data organized
by Tag. This software also allows to download
data from Instrument on document ( table ) with date, time
and value. You can view table, save table, print table,
export table in excel-txt-html and obtain graph. You can
also manage data coping, moving on other tables
