SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION
The model OS136 series is a very low-cost, super-compact infrared transmitter. It
measures temperature via non-contact, and provides an analog output
proportional to the measured temperature. The OS136 series is offered in two
temperature ranges: -18 to 204ºC (0 to 400ºF) and 149 to 538ºC (300 to 1000ºF).
The analog output is offered as 4 to 20 mA, 0 to 5 Vdc, 0 to 10 Vdc, 10
mV/Degree C or F, or K type thermocouple.
The unit has a fixed Emissivity of 0.95 which makes it easy to measure
temperature, requiring no adjustments during installation and use.
The super-compact design, 19 mm OD x 89 mm Length (0.75" OD x 3.5" L) is
ideal to measure temperature in confined, and hard to reach places. The Stainless
Steel housing is NEMA-4 rated. The unit comes with a 1.82 m (6') shielded cable
as standard.
