the beam, and do not point the laser beam of the pilot light
into the eyes of another person.

2.6 Accessories (optional)

Numerous accessories guarantee easy installation of the pyrometer. The following overview
shows a selection of suitable accessories. You can find the entire accessory program with all
reference numbers in Chapter 8, Reference numbers.

2.6.1 Mounting

Mounting brackets are available for safe mounting and alignment of
the pyrometer to the measuring object.

2.6.2 Cooling Jacket

allows use of the pyrometer above the maximum permissible ambient
temperature. The pyrometer can be operated in ambient temperatures
up to 180 °C.

2.6.3 Air Purge

The air purge protects the lens from contamination of dust and
moisture. It has to be supplied with dry and oil-free pressurized air and
generates an air stream shaped like a cone.

2.6.4 Vacuum Pickup

2.6.5 Scanning Mirror

The scanning mirror unit SCA 5 allows the measured object to be
scanned over a certain range. The measuring beam of the pyrometer
moves straight in one line across the object and collects temperature
data of this line. This is useful when used in combination with the
maximum value storage (peak picker) to measure objects which move
out of the target area. The scanning angle of the mirror is 0 to 12° and
the scanning frequency 0 to 5 Hz. Both values are easily adjustable at
the scanner.

2.7 Transport, Packing, Storage

With faulty shipping, the instrument can be damaged or destroyed. To transport or store the
instrument, please use the original box or a box padded with sufficient shock-absorbing
material. For storage in humid areas or shipment overseas, the device should be placed in
welded foil (ideally along with silica gel) to protect it from humidity.

The pyrometer is designed for a storage temperature of -20 to 80 °C with non-condensing
conditions. Storing the instrument out of these conditions can cause damage or result in
malfunction of the pyrometer.
