    Operation 7.4.3 External Input The external input can be used to provide the following functions:  digital input for triggering  digital input for On/Off switching of the laser  analog input for compensating the ambient background temperature  analog input for setting the emissivity Only one input function can be active at a given time.
  • Page 45: Ambient Background Temperature Compensation

    Operation 7.4.3.2 Ambient Background Temperature Compensation The sensor is capable of improving the accuracy of target temperature measurements by taking into account the ambient or background temperature. This feature is useful when the target emissivity is below 1.0 and the background temperature is not significantly lower than the target temperature. For instance, the higher temperature of a furnace wall could lead to too-high temperatures being measured especially for lower emissivity targets.

    Options 8.3.1 Avoidance of Condensation If environmental conditions makes water cooling necessary, it is strictly recommended to check whether condensation will be a real problem or not. Water cooling also causes a cooling of the air in the inner part of the sensor, thereby decreasing the capability of the air to hold water. The relative humidity increases and can reach 100% very quickly.

    Appendix 12 Appendix 12.1 Determination of Emissivity Emissivity is a measure of an object’s ability to absorb and emit infrared energy. It can have a value between 0 and 1.0. For example a mirror has an emissivity of 0.1, while the so-called “Blackbody“ reaches an emissivity value of 1.0.
