2. Objects to be Measured
• Non-problematic objects
Food, paper, plastic, cloth, leather, cigarettes, medicine, chemicals, rubber, asphalt, coal, etc.
• Objects of which measurement is difficult
Plated lustrous metal, uncoated or unpainted metal, etc.
• Objects of which measurement is somewhat difficult
Dimly lustrous metal, thin transparent plastic, etc.
In case measurement is difficult, it can be made easier if black body tape is used to raise emissivity.
3. Installation
Ensure the installation location corresponds to the following conditions.
• The sensing head should be kept as close as possible to the object.
• The ambient temperature of this sensor should not exceed 70 (158 ).
• The sensor lens should be protected from being covered with powder, dust, etc.
• Use an air purge collar (APSW or APSN, sold separately) when using this sensor in a place where a lot of
fumes, dust or moisture is present (Airflow: 0.5 to 1.5 liter/sec)
• Install this sensor away from electrical noise, motors or generators.
For the mounting method of the Fixed-mounting bracket (FBS, sold separately) and Adjustable-mounting
bracket (ABS, sold separately), see page 3.
For the mounting method of the Air purge collar (APSW or APSN, sold separately), see page 4.

3.3 Mounting method of the Air purge collar (APSW or APSN, sold separately)
The air purge collar is used to suppress the temperature rise of the sensor body, and to keep dust, etc.
away from the lens.
• Applicable airflow for the air purge collar: 0.5 to 1.5 liter/min
• The sensor will operate in ambient temperature up to 70 , so be careful not to exceed 70 of ambient
temperature when using the sensor.
• Blow air clean and suitable for measurement.

4. Wiring
Warning
Turn OFF the power supply to the indicator/controller before wiring.
Working on or touching the terminal with the power switched ON may result in severe injury or
death due to electric shock.
4.1 Note about Wiring
• When using the sensor in an environment where electrical noise is present, use a shielded wire, and
connect it to the ground terminal of the indicator/controller.
If the indicator/controller does not have a ground terminal, connect to the ground terminal of the control
panel.

4.2 Wiring Example
The wiring example for the sensor and the power source (RDP-24), indicator/controller,emissivityadjuster
(PTA) are shown below.
The code in the [ ] is written on the mark tube of the sensor terminal.

Emissivity can be set on the ACS-13A- /A.
For details, refer to the instruction manual for the ACS-13A- /A.
If a fixed emissivity of 0.95 is used, any indicator or controller can be used.

Emissivity can be set on the emissivity adjuster PTA.
For details, refer to the instruction manual for the PTA.
If a fixed emissivity of 0.95 is used, the emissivity adjuster PTA will not be necessary.
(Fig. 4.2-2)
5. Operation
Attention
• If ambient temperature is rapidly changing, leave the sensor for more than 20 minutes as it is, then
measure the temperature.
• Do not measure temperature near a large magnetic field (example:Arc welding machine, induction
heater,etc.). Measurement errors will be caused due to electromagnetic disturbance.
After completing installation for the object to be measured and wiring, start operation following the
procedures below.
(1) Turn the power to the sensor ON (RDP-24).
(2) Turn ON the power to the indicator/controller PTA/ACS-13A- /A.
(3) Measure the temperature.
