3. If you do see signs of shipping damage, contact AE Technical Support
Organization and the carrier immediately.
Save the shipping container for submitting necessary claims to the carrier.

Measuring Through External Windows

If your application requires that you measure through an external window that is
between the pyrometer and the target object, ensure that the window is clean and
made of a material that is suitable for the wavelength of your pyrometer. See
Appendix G, "Emissivity of Common

Verifying the Spot Size and Installation Location

The spot size of your pyrometer is determined by the measuring distance (distance
from the front of the pyrometer to the target), aperture, and temperature range. To
ensure accurate temperature measurement values when using your pyrometer, the
target object needs to be as big as or bigger than the spot size of the pyrometer.

INSTALLATION AT ANY MEASURING DISTANCE

Your pyrometer can be used at any measuring distance; however, the greater the
measuring distance, the larger the spot size will be. You can estimate the spot size by
using the distance ratio of the sensor head optics.
