5 Sighting
For easy alignment of the pyrometer to the measuring object different sighting systems are available:
5.1 View finder (optional at ISQ 5)
The ISQ 5 can be equipped with a view finder (through lens sighting) which is used for the alignment of the
pyrometer to the measured object. The view finder is true-sided and parallax-free; a circle marks the position
of the measuring spot but not exactly the spot size. It is equipped with an adjustable eye-protection filter to
shade the ocular at very high temperatures.
Note: For eye protection the ocular should be shaded above temperatures of 1500°C.
5.2
Laser targeting light (optional at ISQ 5 / standard equipment at ISQ 5-LO)
The laser targeting light is used for alignment of the pyrometer to a target. The laser spot marks the centre of
the measuring spot. As long as the laser targeting light is switched on, the temperature measurement of the
pyrometer is not operating. During this time the last measured temperature is held at the analog output.
The laser targeting light can be switched on and off either by pressing the button of the rear cover of the
housing, by using an external contact (see 3.1 connector pin assignment) or via PC and software InfraWin.
If it is not switched off by one of the mentioned procedures, it will be switched off automatically after approx.
2 minutes.
Note: The smallest diameter of the laser spot indicates the correctly focused measuring
distance. The diameter does not correspond to the spot size!
Warning: To reduce the risk of injury to the eyes, do not look directly into the
targeting laser and do not point the targeting laser into anyone's eyes.
The instrument is equipped with a class II laser that emits radiation.
Note: The laser warning signs on the pyrometer should be easily viewable at all times, even
after it has been installed.
Note: To prevent damage to the laser, the targeting light is switched off automatically if
the internal temperature of the pyrometer exceeds 50°C. It can only be used again af-
ter the temperature fell below 50°C.
5.3
Video module (optional at ISQ 5)
The ISQ 5 can be equipped with a built-in video module for alignment. This video module is a black-and-
white CMOS camera. The video signal can be transferred to a TV card or directly onto a monitor, so that the
measured object can be sighted using a target circle on the monitor. The target circle marks the place of the
measuring spot but not its exact size.

6.1
Spot sizes in relation to the measuring distance
The following tables show the pyrometer’s spot size M [mm] in relation to the measuring distance a [mm]
(min. 90% of the radiation intensity) . Deviations from the focused measuring distance follows changing’s of the
spot (see also formula in section 6.3).
Note: The pyrometer can measure objects at any distance but the object has to be bigger or
at least as big as the spot size of the pyrometer in the measuring distance.
