  • Page 3: General Specifications

    OS301A-USB Series infrared sensors measure the temperature of surfaces without contact. They provide this measurement as a linear 2-wire 4 to 20 mA output, which is compatible with almost any indicator, controller, recorder or data logger without the need for special interfacing or signal conditioning.

  • Page 7: Installation

    The sensor must be installed in a location where energy from lamps, heaters and sunlight cannot be reflected from the target into the lens. The use of shields may help in this respect. For further information and assistance contact Omega. AMBIENT TEMPERATURE The sensor is designed to operate in ambient temperatures from 0°C to 70°C.
  • Page 8: Power Supply

    WIRING Check the distance between the sensor and the indicating/controlling device. If necessary, the sensor can be ordered with a longer cable attached. POWER SUPPLY Be sure to use a 24 V DC (22 mA) power supply. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION All sensors come with a 1m cable and a mounting nut. The sensor can be mounted on brackets or cut outs of your own design, or you can use the fixed and adjustable mounting bracket accessories which are shown below.

  • Page 11 From the Settings menu, go to Emissivity and Compensation. Emissivity Setting Enter the emissivity of the target. Target emissivity can be determined experimentally, or estimated using an emissivity table. For more information, contact Omega. Default setting: 0.95 Window Transmissivity When aiming the sensor through an IR-transmissive window, this setting should be adjusted to compensate for the presence of the window.
