OPERATION AND APPLICATION Configuration The Infrared Radiation Thermometers series KT15 II can be adapted to the process by means of parameterization. The adaptation is carried out via the keyboard or via the digi- tal interface. The operation via keyboard is described in the following. The communication via inter- face is carried out analog to it.
For the transmission of the measured temperature, a module which is recommended for the sensor is needed. OPTIONS AND ACCESSORIES. The figure shows the connection of a module with PT100 in three-wire technique to an Infrared Radiation Thermometer KT15 II. ATTENTION The device must be provided for 'Analog input'.

≥ 70 °C. This switch is connected to the flange-plug ( chapter 3). Monitoring the analog output signal The type of the output signal can be selected for the series KT15 II Infrared Radiation Thermometers. For monitoring the output signal the '4 - 20 mA' type is recommended. At this setting a measuring temperature within the set temperature range will supply a signal between 4 and 20 mA.
By selecting 'MANUAL' or 'AUTO' mode, the self-reset of the memories is activated. The device detects a 'temperature gap' between two targets and resets maximum or minimum value memory at the end of the gap.

MAINTENANCE AND CALIBRATION General information The design of HEITRONICS Infrared Radiation Thermometers provides for a long period of service without the necessity of special maintenance. It is advisable to check the display accuracy approximately every three months. Measuring errors may arise, for instance, owing to pollution of the lens. For this reason, this component should first of all be cleaned.
