1 General 1.1 Information about the user manual Congratulations on choosing this high quality and highly efficient pyrometer. This manual provides important information about the instrument and can be used as a work of reference for installing, operating, and maintaining your pyrometer. It is important that you carefully read the information contained in this manual and follow all safety procedures before you install or operate the instrument.
Warning: To reduce the risk of injury to the eyes, do not look directly into the targeting laser and do not point the targeting laser into anyone's eyes. The instrument is equipped with a class II laser that emits radiation. Never look directly into the laser beam. The beam and spot can be watched safely from side. Make sure that the beam will not be reflected into eyes of people by mirrors or shiny surfaces. 1.2.
LumaSense Technologies cannot be responsible for shortages against the packing list unless a claim is immediately filed with the carrier. Final claim and negotiations with the carrier must be completed by the customer. 2. Carefully unpack and inspect all components for visible damage.

2 Introduction 2.1 Appropriate use The IS 12-Al is a special version of the pyrometer IS 12, designed for the measurement of aluminum. The robust die-cast housing with protection class IP65 is designed for the use in industrial environments. The instruments IS 12-Al/S is equipped with an integrated scanner which moves the measuring beam adjustable up and down up to 4°. 2.1.
Resolution: Isolation: Parameters: 0.1 °C at interface and display, < 0.

2.6 Accessories (Option) Numerous accessories guarantee easy installation of the pyrometers. The following overview shows a selection of suitable accessories. You can find the entire accessory program with all reference numbers on no. Section 10.2 Reference numbers accessories. Mounting For mounting and aligning the pyrometer to the measured object a mounting angle or ball and socket mountings are available.
3 Controls and Installation 3.1 Electrical Installation The IS 12-Al is powered by a voltage of either 24 V DC (15 to 40 V DC) or 24 V AC (12 to 30 V AC), 48 to 62 Hz. The instrument has no warm-up time. With connection to the power, the instrument operates immediately. To switch off the instrument, unplug the connector. To meet the electromagnetic requirements, a shielded connecting cable must be used.
For additional limit contacts cable The instrument is equipped with two independent relay limit switches. These are two separate switch-over relay contacts, changing its state if the adjusted temperatures are exceeded.
Connecting to RS232 interface TxD (violet) The transmission rate (in baud) of the serial interface is dependent on the length of the cable. Values between 2400 and 115200 Bd may be set. RxD (black) DGND (red) E The baud rate has to be reduced by 50% when the transmission distance is doubled (see also 5.10 kBaud (baud rate)). F M D C L B Typical cable length for RS232 at 19200 Bd is 7 m.
3.2 Sighting For exact aiming to the object, the pyrometers are equipped with a thru-lens view finder and an additional laser targeting light 3.2.1 Thru-lens view finder In the optimized thru-lens view finder, a circle marks the exact position and size of the measuring spot. 3.2.2 Thru-lens view finder Laser targeting light In addition to the thru-lens view finder, the instrument is equipped with a laser targeting light. The laser point marks the center of the spot, not the exact size.
Calculating the spot sizes on different measuring distances: The table above specifies, for each optic, the smallest spot size in a certain distance. Spot sizes for other measuring distances can be calculated with the following equations or with the Spot Size Calculator of the InfraWin software.

4 Instrument settings All instrument settings can be done directly at the instrument. To activate the adjusting keys, a tip of ball pen must be used. This avoids changing parameters by mistake. 4.1 Key panel operation 4.2 Functions and setting of parameters Temperature or parameter display In the measuring mode the display shows the actual temperature reading. After pushing the parameter key the display indicates the actual value of one selected parameter.
If a parameter is changed with the arrow keys, the new value must be 3) ENT confirmed by pushing the ENT key. If it is not confirmed with ENT, the instrument is still operating with the previous parameter value. If no key is pressed for approx. 30 s, the display changes to the temperature indication. Limit contacts Two limit switches can be set. If the measuring temperature exceeds the adjusted limit contact temperature, the LED S1 or S2 displays the switch status.
4.4.2 Adjustments The scanning amplitude is adjustable with the scanning angle (0 to 4 °), the scanning frequency between 4 and 10 Hz. On the left side of the pyrometer is a cap. Two adjusting potentiometers are under this cap, labeled with an A for amplitude and an F for frequency. For adjustments a small screw driver is necessary. With the laser targeting light the adjustments can be controlled. cap Note: Please make sure that the pyrometer will not be contaminated while the cap is open.

5 Parameters 5.1 Emi (emissivity ) For a correct measurement, it is necessary to adjust the emissivity. This emissivity is the relationship between the emission of a real object and the emission of a black body radiation source at the same temperature (this is an object which absorbs all incoming rays and has an emissivity of 100%). Different materials have different emissivities ranging between 0% and 100% (settings at the pyrometer between 10 and 100%).
The disadvantages of fluctuations in the display with the clock frequency are thereby eliminated. The following settings are possible: Off: Clear time “0.00“: the storage is switched off and only momentary values are measured. 0.01…25 s: If any clear time is set, the maximum value is estimated and held in double storage mode. After the entered time the storage will be deleted.
5.7 Temperature display in °C or °F The temperature can be displayed in °C or °F. 5.8 Digital Inteface (RS) Selection between RS232 and RS485 (this adjustment can only be done on the pyrometer). 5.9 Settings: °C °F Settings: RS232 RS485 Address Settings: For the connecting of several pyrometers with RS485 with one serial 00 .. interface it is necessary to give each instrument an individual address for . 97 communication.

6 Software InfraWin The operating and analyzing InfraWin software is included with delivery of the pyrometer. In addition to allowing you to make parameter adjustments, the InfraWin software also provides temperature indication, data logging, and measurement analysis features. A software description can be found in the program’s help menu. Click on the F1 button after loading InfraWin or click on the ? in the menu bar. The latest version is available for free as download from the homepage www.lumasenseinc.

7 Maintenance 7.1 Cleaning the front window Since the device does not contain parts that require regular maintenance, the only regular maintenance required is periodic inspection of the front window for build-up of foreign particiles. If allowed to build up, the particles can influence the energy received by the instrument. The window is not water soluable and can be cleaned with standard lens tissue dampened with a commercially available glasses or camera lens cleaning solution.

8 Troubleshooting Before sending the pyrometer for repair, try to find the error and to solve the problem with the help of the following list. Temperature indication too low Incorrect alignment of the pyrometer to the object New correct alignment to achieve the max.

9 Data format UPP (Universal Pyrometer Protocol) Via interface and a suitable communication software or via “Test” function of the InfraWin commands can be exchanged directly with the pyrometer. The data exchange occurs in ASCII format with the following transmission parameters: The data format is: 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, even parity (8,1,e). The device responds to the entry of a command with: output (e.g. the measuring value) + CR (Carriage Return, ASCII 13), to pure entry commands with “ok” + CR.
