FAQs
Does the CTVideo support an open collector output?
Yes, an additional open collector output is supported. The open collector output is an additional alarm output.
How far can I position the CTVideo from the target?
The measuring object’s size and the infrared thermometers optical resolution determine the maximum distance between the sensing head and the measuring object. The object should fill out the optics’ field of view to prevent measuring deviations. Consequently, the spot should always be at least the same size as the object or smaller. The spot size refers to 90% of the radiation energy.
How do I focus the CTVideo?
The vario optics of the CTVideo allows a smooth focusing of the optics to the desired distance. On the back plane of the sensor you will find a rotary button for focusing of the optics. By turning the rotary button clockwise you will change the focus in direction far. By turning counterclockwise you will change the focus in direction close.
How do I aim with a CTVideo?
The CTVideo has an integrated video camera which is using the same optical channel than the IR detector. In addition, the sensor has a cross laser aiming which marks the center of the measurement spot at any distance. The combination of video and laser sighting enables a perfect alignment of the sensor to the object. The integrated laser sighting supports the alignment and focusing of the optics. The position of the measurement spot is indicated by a circle inside the video picture.
Is the laser dangerous?
The pyrometers laser is a class 2 laser with less than 1mW in the wavelength range of 500 nm to 650 nm, according to EN 60825 1:2014. Do not point the laser directly at the eyes of persons or animals! Do not stare into the laser beam. Avoid indirect exposure via reflective surfaces.
The laser switched off?
At ambient temperatures >50 °C the laser will be switched off automatically. The laser should only be used for sighting and positioning of the sensor. A permanent use of the laser can reduce the lifetime of the laser diodes and might heat up the sensor.
Can I trigger the laser externally?
Yes, but the supply line for the sighting laser must be led via a switch or pushbutton, which has to be installed max 2 m away from installation site of the sensor for safety purposes. The laser can be activated/ deactivated via this, by the user on site to be installed switch, or via the software.
