  • Page 15: Controls And Installation

    3 Controls and Installation 3.1 Electrical Installation The ISR 12-LO/GS is powered by a voltage of 24 V DC or AC. The length of the 24 V supply line should not be longer than 30 m. Hence the use of 24 V site internal supply network is also not recommended.
  • Page 16: Connector Pin J

    3.1.2 Connector pin J The connector pin J can be used for 4 different functions: 1) Operating mode contact: During the warm-up of the pyrometer (after connection to the power supply, the LED display on the converter indicates “7777”) pin J is connected to the power supply voltage.

    When using a converter RS485  RS232 take care, that the converter is fast enough to receive the pyrometer’s answer to an instruction of the master. Most of the commonly used converters are too slow for fast measuring equipment. So, it is recommended to use the IMPAC-converter (order no.

    3.4.2 Fiber optic Depending on the measuring range two different fibers are used. They are Fiber marked red or blue. The color mark Color mark must be mounted on the pyrometer’s side. Screw connection The fiber optic is equipped with a special connector which allows to fix the fiber only in one position.
  • Page 20: Optics

    3.5 Optics 3.5.1 Spot Sizes 2 different optical heads are available. They have a special spot size in shape of a line which guarantees that even a moving pouring stream can always be captured. The optical heads differ in its spot size depending on the measuring distance. The correct selection depends on the size of the pouring stream if the pouring stream is moving and the required distance to the stream.
  • Page 21: Aligning The Optical Head To The Pouring Stream

    3.6 Aligning the optical head to the pouring stream The optical head must be aligned in that way that the spot is partially filled by the pouring stream. If the pouring stream is moving, the stream should not leave the spot. For a correct measurement of a pouring stream it is necessary that the measuring signal has a certain minimum level of 10 to 20% (i.e.

  • Page 26 At very short pouring times the amount of values can be reduced. E.g. if a value of 50% is adjusted, 512 measurement values must be above the beginning of temperature sub range to start the measurement of the pouring stream. Pre-run time (0 to 9.9 s): A certain pre-run time can be set in addition to the start-up condition.

  • Page 28: Exposure Time (T / S)

    4.6 Exposure time (t / s) Settings: The exposure time is the time interval when the measured temperature must be present after an abrupt change so that the output value of the pyrometer 0.01 s reaches a given measurement value. The time taken is to reach 90% of the 0.05 s recorded temperature difference.
  • Page 29 Operation Note: Dependent on the settings the maximum value storage either works in single storage mode or in double storage mode: Single Storage The single storage is used when you want to reset the stored value using an external impulse via one contact closure from an external relay (i.e. between Mode: two measured objects).
  • Page 30: Switch-Off Limit (Off / %)

    4.9 Switch-off limit (OFF / %) The switch-off limit is a function to avoid measuring errors caused by too Settings: low signals. Ratio pyrometers are able to measure temperatures correctly even with very low signals, i.e. for example through a dirty viewing window or if dust exists in the field of view or if the spot is not filled by the measuring object.
  • Page 31: Baud Rate

    4.13 Baud Rate Settings: The transmission rate of the serial interface in Baud (Bd) is dependent on the 2400 Bd length of the cable. A standard cable length with RS232 for 19200 Bd is 7 m, with RS485 2 km. The baud rate is reduced by 50% if the transmission 115200 Bd distance is doubled.
