Warranty and Assistance The IRTS-P PRECISION INFRARED TEMPERATURE SENSOR is warranted by CAMPBELL SCIENTIFIC, INC. to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for twelve (12) months from date of shipment unless specified otherwise. Batteries have no warranty.
The IRTS-P is an infrared temperature sensor calibrated to output the signal for the target temperature with the same output voltage as if a Type K thermocouple were sensing the target temperature.
The IRTS-P can be mounted to a Campbell Scientific tripod or tower with the UT018 Crossarm (Figure 3-1.) A mounting kit (Stainless steel bolt, 2 washers, and 2 nuts PN 14475) is included with the IRTS-P that can be used to attach the sensor to the crossarm (Figure 3-2.) FIGURE 3-1.
IRTS-P Precision Infrared Temperature Sensor 4. Wiring The IRTS-P has two thermocouple outputs. Each output is a pair of red and yellow wires. The pair labeled “Target” on the jacket near the wires is the output from the detector. The pair labeled “Body” is a thermocouple measuring the temperature of the sensor body.

In an actual installation the measurement and output intervals, and channels used may be changed to accommodate the other measurements and outputs.
