1.2 How to Read the Model Label
The model label is attached to the surface of the electronics (Status indicator side).
Lot No. the label is attached to the reverse side of the electronics.

Target Objects

• Non-problematic objects
  Food, paper, plastics, cloth, leather, cigarettes, medicine, chemicals, rubber, asphalt, coal, etc.

• Difficult objects
  Plated lustrous metals, uncoated or unpainted metals, etc.

• Slightly problematic objects
  Low lustrous metals, thin transparent plastics, etc.

If the measurement is difficult, black body tape can be used to raise emissivity.

Installation

Ensure the installation location corresponds to the following conditions.

• The sensing head should be kept as close as possible to the object.
• The ambient temperature of the sensing head should not exceed 120 (248 ).
• The ambient temperature of the electronics should not exceed 80 (176 ).
• The sensor lens should be protected from being covered with powder, dust, etc.
• Use an air purge collar (ASAP, sold separately) when using this sensor in a place where a lot of fumes, dust, or moisture is present. (Airflow: 2 to 10 liter/sec)
• Install this sensor away from electrical noise, motors, or generators.

For the mounting method of the mounting bracket (TFB, sold separately), see pages 3, and 4.
For the mounting method of the Air purge collar (ASAP, sold separately), see pages 4, and 5.
3.1 Target Spot Size versus Distance from Sensing Head
(Fig. 3.1-1) shows the relationship between the target spot size and distance from the sensing head.
(Fig. 3.1-1 is not to scale.)
Take these values into consideration when installing the sensor.
Field of view D:S = 15:1

3.2 Mounting
There are 3 methods for mounting the sensing head.

• Direct mounting
• Mounting when the mounting bracket (TFB, sold separately) is used
• Mounting when the air purge collar (ASAP, sold separately) is used

3.2.1 Direct Mounting
The sensing head is threaded (M12 x 1) for direct mounting. Sensing head dimensions (Scale: mm)

3.2.2 Mounting When the Mounting Bracket (TFB, sold separately) is Used
If the mounting bracket is used, the sensing head can be easily adjusted.
Mounting bracket (TFB) dimensions (Scale: mm)

The mounting procedures are shown below.

1. Fix the mounting bracket at the desired site using a screw (M3 size – not included).
2. Remove the hexagonal nut (SW 14) from the sensing head, and pass the sensing head through the mounting bracket. Secure it using the hexagonal nut.

3.2.3 Mounting When the Air Purge Collar (ASAP, sold separately) is Used
The air purge collar is used to suppress rises in temperature of the sensing head, and to keep fumes, dust, gases, and other contaminants away from the lens. The mounting bracket (TFB, sold separately) is also necessary.

• Airflow: 2 to 10 liters/minute
• Use clean, oil-free compressed air.

Air purge collar (ASAP) dimensions (Scale: mm)

Mounting procedures are shown below.

1. Remove the hexagonal nut, and install the air purge collar.

2. Fix the mounting bracket (TFB) at the desired site using a screw (M3 size – not included).

3. Pass the air purge collar through the mounting bracket, and secure it using the hexagonal nut.
   

4. Attach the tube and air pump to the air purge collar.
   Refer to the tube size and air pump specifications recommended below.
   Recommended tube size: Inside diameter: 4 mm; Outside diameter: 6 mm
   Recommended air pump: The air pump should fit tube size and deliver a discharge air flow rate corresponding to the air purge collar (2 to 10 liters/minute).

Wiring

Warning
Turn OFF the power supply to the indicator/controller before wiring.
Working on or touching the terminal with the power switched ON may result in severe injury or death due to electrical shock.
Caution
When using the sensor in an environment where electrical noise is present, use a shielded wire, and connect it to the ground terminal of the indicator/controller. If the indicator/controller does not have a ground terminal, connect to the ground terminal of the control panel.
4.1 Wiring Example
The wiring example for the RD-715-HA, power supply (RDP-24), and digital indicating controller (ACS-13A- /A) is shown below.

White: Power supply Loop current (+ side)
Brown: Power supply Loop current (- side)
Black: Shielded wire
Green: Not used (Do not connect anything.)
Yellow: Not used (Do not connect anything.)

• Emissivity can be set on the ACS-13A- /A Digital Indicating Controller.
  For details, refer to the Instruction Manual for the ACS-13A- /A.

• If a fixed emissivity of 0.950 is used, any indicator/controller can be used.
  (Fig. 4.1-1)

Measurement

Attention

• If the ambient temperature is rapidly changing, leave the sensor for more than 20 minutes as it is, then measures the temperature.
• Do not measure temperature near a large magnetic field (example: Arc welding machine, induction heater, etc.). Measurement errors will be caused due to electromagnetic disturbance.

After completing the installation for the target object and wiring, start operation following the procedures below.

1. Turn the power to the sensor ON (RDP-24).
2. Turn ON the power to the indicator/controller (ACS-13A- /A).
3. Measure the temperature.

Status indicator of the electronics
The status indicator flashes as follows depending on sensor status.

Sensor Status| Indication of Status Indicator| : Unlit, : Lit (Green)
---|---|---
Normal| Flashes irregularly. (lit – short, unlit – long)|

Sensing head high temperature (1)| Flashes regularly.
