This high performance system
allows one to view targets that
are not optically accessible with
standard line of sight
instrumentation.
This high performance emissivity
independent 2-color system
consists of a DP1541 and sensors.
The DP1541 is a single-channel,
19 inch rack mount 2-color control
system. Three sensors are
available; OS1542-L1-R1 or
OS1542-L1-R2 or OS1543-L1-R3.

The OS1543 fiber optic sensor
head has a lead sulfide detector
filtered over wide bands centered at
1.55 and 2.25 microns. It is used as
a general purpose head which can
measure temperatures down to
250°C. It should not be used where
hot steam or gas is present.
The fiber optic cable assembly
differs according to certain
parameters specific to the
application. It allows remote
mounting of the OS1542 or OS1543
detector heads away from hot or
hazardous areas.
The OS1542 and OS1543
fiber optic sensors are
designed specifically to work
with the DP1541 2-color
emissivity-independent
monitor and the associated
fiber optic cable assembly.
The small size of these
probes makes them well
suited for installations with
limited mounting room. They
are unaffected by RFI and
EMI noise, which also make
them excellent for use in
hostile environments like
induction or microwave
heating.
The OS1542 and OS1543
fiber optic sensors operate at
2 wavebands and utilize an
energy ratio to calculate
temperature. They can,
therefore, measure
temperature on objects
whose emissivity is unknown
provided the emissivity at all
temperatures is proportional
at the 2 wavebands used for
the measurement, which
is typical.
The OS1542 fiber optic
sensor head has a silicon
detector filtered at narrow
bands centered at 0.90 and
1.06 microns; it is used
primarily at high temperatures
and is minimally affected by
steam and hot gas.

Rack Mounted Monitor
The DP1541 two-color temperature
monitor measures temperature
independently of emissivity, and is
unaffected by dust, smoke or other
contaminants in the field of view. Only
20% of the field of view is needed to
ensure accurate measurements,
regardless of the target size. Through
the use of a bifurcated fiber optic
cable, the energy radiated by the
target can be divided between two
separate infrared detectors within the
sensor head. Each detector, having a
different spectral band pass filter,
sees a slightly different target energy
level. The signals from these two
detectors provide the ratio to provide
the final temperature readout.
The DP1541 two-color monitor
measures temperature independently
of changes in target emissivity,
provided that the emissivity changes
are proportional in both wavelength
bands, thus cancelling out the change
in emissivity.
The meter also incorporates a special
feature called “slope control,” which
allows precise emissivity correction for
the temperature band of interest.
The “slope control” adjustment
compensates for non-graybody errors
by adding a percentage of the singlecolor temperature to the two-color
temperature to achieve the correct
temperature output.
The DP1541 monitor has optional
signal processing outputs for
datalogging or taking trend analysis.
These outputs include Peak Sense
and Hold, Signal Averaging, Valley
Sense and Hold, Fast Rise, Variable
Decay Time Sampling and Sample
Timed Hold.
The unique features of the DP1541,
along with the OS1542 or OS1543
infrared sensors, make it ideal for
applications like wire and rod forming,
molten metal, heat treating, crystal
growing. The system may be used in
applications considered difficult or
impossible for conventional direct
viewing infrared systems.
The DP1541 is recommended for
situations where direct target sighting
is impossible due to obstructions,
where RF or EMI interference is
present, or where nuclear radiation is
present (requiring the electronics to
be located in a safe area), and in
harsh environments.
The DP1541 monitor can be supplied
with a trifurcated fiber optic cable that
permits “backlighting” with a light
source for precise pinpointing of the
target location at all times.
Any non-contact temperature
measurement can be taken with the
proper sensor configuration, along
with the DP1541 monitor. Consult
OMEGA for the proper system
configuration for your application or
for available custom configurations.
The system will consist of the DP1541
two-color emissivity-independent
monitor and either the OS1542 or
OS1543 sensor head, along with
a 3 m (10') interconnecting cable
and the fiber optic cable assembly.
Important factors to be considered in
determining the fiber optic assembly
best suited for your application are:
the distance from fiber optic lens to
the surface being measured; the size
of the surface; the temperature range
to be measured; the ambient
temperature around the fiber optic
cable; the length of the fiber optic
cable needed; how the surface is
being heated, and the atmospheric
conditions between the sensor and
the product.
