Warning: If selected, the IGA 6/23 Advanced laser light option is a Class 2 and emits laser light.

To minimize the risk of eye injury, do not look directly into the beam, and do not point the laser beam of the pilot light into the eyes of another person.

2.6Accessories (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.

2.6.1Mounting

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

Mounting angle

2.6.2Cooling Jacket

The stainless steel housing with integrated water cooling air purge allows use of the pyrometer above the maximum permissible ambient temperature. The pyrometer can be operated in ambient temperatures up to 180 °C.

Water cooling jacket with integrated air purge

2.6.3Air 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.

2.6.4Vacuum Pickup

The vacuum pickup KF 16 with window allows the user to easily mount the pyrometer on vacuum systems.

Vacuum Pickup

2.6.5Scanning 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 Scanning Mirror the scanner.

2.7Transport, 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.
