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
