1.1 Introduction
The OS550A Series Industrial Infrared (IR) Thermometers provide
non-contact temperature measurement up to 4500°F (2482°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.
• Annealing Processing: Monitoring surface temperatures of
metals while it is inside an oven by seeing through glass
window.
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 inches (12.7 cm) to
approximately 200 feet (61 m)
• 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 10 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, data loggers and computers)
• Two way RS232 serial communication to a PC. This allows
downloading data for further analysis (OS552A, OS553A
and OS554A, OS555A).
• Ambient target temperature compensation. This provides
more accuracy for measuring low emissivity targets.
• Record up to 800 temperature data points either continuos or
on demand. Review the recorded data on the thermometer
LCD, as well as downloading the data to a PC (OS553A and
OS554A, OS555A).
• Backlit display useful in low ambient light conditions
• Laser Sighting is optional.
• High and Low Alarm outputs to drive external Mechanical
