Section 1 - Introduction

The low cost OS101E mini-infrared transmitter provides non-contact
temperature measurement for industrial applications. The unit measures a
temperature range of -18 to 538°C (0-1000°F) and provides a linear analog
output of either 4-20 mA, 0-5 VDC, K type TC, 1 mV/°C, or 1 mV/°F.

The new OS102E mini-infrared transmitter has all the functions of OS101E
plus a built-in LED display that shows the measured temperature in
degrees F or degrees C which is switchable in the field.

The miniature sensor head design 2.5 cm dia. x 6.3 cm Length (1" x 2.5") is
ideal for measuring temperature in confined, and hard to reach places.
The aluminum sensor head as well as the rugged electronic housing (Die
cast Aluminum) are NEMA-4 rated.

The sensor head is connected to the electronic housing via a 1.82 m (6 feet)
shielded cable as standard. The unit provides field adjustable alarm
output.

3.2 Ambient Temperature

The Sensing head can operate in an ambient temperature of 0 to 70°C (32
to 158°F). The Sensing head in the high temperature model (-HT) can
operate in an ambient temperature of 0 to 85°C (32 to 185°F) without any
cooling required. The Sensing head can operate up to 200°C (392°F) using
the water cool jacket accessory OS100-WC (See Fig. 3-6).

There is a warm up period of 3 minutes after power up. After the warm
up period, temperature measurement can be made.

When the ambient temperature around the sensor head changes abruptly,
the sensor head goes through thermal shock. It takes a certain amount of
time for the sensor head to stabilize to the new ambient temperature. For
example, it takes about 30 minutes for the sensor head to stabilize going
from 25°C to 50°C (77 to 122°F) ambient temperature.

The sensor head dimensions are shown in Fig. 3-2.

3.3 Atmospheric Quality

Environments with smoke, dust, and fumes dirty up the optical lens, and
cause erroneous temperature readings. To keep the surface of the optical
lens clean, the air purge collar accessory is recommended, OS100-AP, See
Fig. 3-7.

3.4 Measuring Temperature

Before starting to measure temperature, make sure that the following
check list is met:

 The power and analog output connections are made (Fig. 2-1).

 The sensor head is connected to the main unit.

 The slide switch (SW1) on the main board is set to real time (Fig. 3-1).

 The target is larger than the optical field of view of the sensor head

(Fig. 3- 3 ).

 The emissivity adjustment on the main board is set properly (Fig. 3-1).

 The output load is within the product specification.

On 102E transmitters, follow these additional steps:

 The temperature display is set to °F or °C (Fig. 3-1)

 For 4-20mA output models, make sure an output load is added, ie. 250

ohms.
