  • Page 3: Specification

    The OS-Mini Series is a range of miniature non-contact infrared temperature sensors with separate electronics modules. All models have an adjustable emissivity setting and are capable of measuring a wide variety of target materials, including food, paper, textiles, plastics, leather, tobacco, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, rubber, coal and asphalt.

    SENSING HEAD OPERATING TEMPERATURE RANGE 0°C to 60°C 0°C to 180°C The high ambient temperature sensing head on -HA models is capable of withstanding temperatures of up to 180°C without cooling. It is available with 20:1 optics. There is no need to supply cooling air or water, and the miniature sensing head is much smaller than bulky, cooled sensors.

    USER INTERFACE Default View Temperature View Displays a large indication of the measured temperature. The background turns bright red when an alarm is activated. Setting Press “°C” to switch to °F and vice versa. The units are changed throughout Temperature the interface.
  • Page 8 Lock/Unlock Prevents settings being changed via a four-digit numerical code. Change Password Enter, confirm and save a new four-digit code. Start/Stop Logging Manually begins or ends data logging (requires MicroSD Card, available separately). If Scheduled Start is enabled in Settings > Data Logging, then logging cannot be started manually.
  • Page 9 SETTINGS Date & Time Change the date and time for data logging purposes. The clock is reset when the power is cycled unless a battery is fitted. Output Processing Averaging Set the time, in seconds, over which the measured temperature is averaged. Period Note: averaging prevents the sensor from following rapid temperature changes.
  • Page 10 SETTINGS (continued) Emissivity and Compensation Emissivity Enter the emissivity of the target. Target emissivity can be determined Setting experimentally, or estimated using an emissivity table. For more information, contact Calex. Minimum: 0.2. Maximum: 1.0. Enable colder objects. Energy Compensation Temperature Compensation.

Hysteresis The temperature difference between the Alarm Set Point and the reset temperature. Hysteresis is only used when Automatic Reset is enabled. Please see the diagrams below for more information Minimum: 0°C (hysteresis disabled).

    INSTALLATION OF MICROSD CARD AND BATTERY MicroSD Card Battery (use 1 x BR 1225 3V) DATA LOG FILES Data is saved to the MicroSD Card in .csv format. This file format can be opened or imported by spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Excel. A new folder is created on the MicroSD Card for each day that data is logged.
  • Page 14 A range of accessories to suit different applications and industrial environments is available. These may be ordered at any time and added on-site. The following accessories are available from Omega: Fixed mounting bracket (see above for dimensions): Allows rotational adjustment in one dimension.
  • Page 15: Installation

    INSTALLATION The installation process consists of the following stages: Preparation Mechanical installation Electrical installation Please read the following sections thoroughly before proceeding with the installation. PREPARATION Ensure that the sensor is positioned so that it is focused on the target only. Sensor Target greater BEST...
  • Page 16: Power Supply

    To minimise electromagnetic interference or ‘noise’, the sensor should be mounted away from motors, generators and such like. POWER SUPPLY Be sure to use a 24 V DC (100 mA) power supply. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION All sensors come with a 1 m cable and a mounting nut as standard. Longer cables are available to order.
  • Page 17 WIRING (ALL MODELS) Check the distance between the sensing head and the electronics module, and between the electronics module and the instrumentation. If necessary, the sensor can be ordered with a longer cable between the sensing head and the electronics module. The output cable from the electronics module should have an outer diameter between 3.0 and 6.5 mm, with conductors of size 28 to 18 AWG.
