OS-PC The OS-PC is a non-contact temperature sensor with built-in LED sighting. It has an extremely fast response time, and can measure a spot as small as 1.6 mm in diameter. The continuous LED sighting illuminates the position and size of the measurement spot while readings are being taken, without affecting the accuracy of the measurement.

Use the Teach Reflected Temperature function to find the correct setting. Enter the true target temperature and the sensor will compensate for the reflected energy. For assistance, contact Omega. Alarm Outputs When used without the optional OS-PC-TSD interface module, the sensor has one open drain alarm output, configurable via RS232C Modbus.
Accessories All dimensions in mm Mounting Bracket Provides a sturdy mount for the sensor and allows rotation about one axis. Thickness: 2.0 mm. Weight: 45 g. Air Purge Collar Helps prevent dust and condensation from settling on the lens. Use clean (instrument) air. Maximum flow rate: 5 l/min, maximum pressure 0.2 MPa.

Water Cooled Jacket In areas of high ambient temperature, use the water cooled jacket to keep the sensor body temperature within 0 to 50° C. The OS- PC water cooling jacket may be fitted to an existing sensor. Cooling water flow rate should be approximately 0.6 l/min.
Ambient Temperature The sensing head may be used between 0° C and 50° C ambient temperature. If the ambient temperature is higher than this, consider adding a water cooled jacket. Avoid thermal shock. Allow 20 minutes for the unit to adjust to large changes in ambient temperature.

Power Supply: Connect the power supply (5 to 27 V DC) to wires 1 (red, +) and 3 (black, Ground) Analogue Output: Short the inner shield wire 7 (purple) to the ground wire 8 (blue) at the terminal. The analogue output is between wires 6 (green) and 8 (blue). The minimum sensor power supply voltage depends on the output type being used.

The sensor is capable of measuring the temperature of a target through a window made of a suitable infrared-transmissive material. The emissivity setting of the sensor should be adjusted to compensate for the presence of the window. Please contact Omega for more information on using the sensor with a window.
