1 Introduction
1.1 ADT Thermometer Introduction
The Land ADT (Aluminium Die Thermometer) is used for measuring the
temperature of pre-heated aluminium extrusion dies as they are moved from
the die oven to be installed into the aluminium extrusion press.
1.2 About this Guide
This guide gives the necessary information required to operate Land ADT
thermometer. Basic information regarding installation and mountings and
accessories can be found in the ADT Installation Guide. Where reference is
made to a system processor, further information can be found in the LMG AE
Processor User Guide.
The equipment detailed in this User Guide and any associated Guides should
be used, maintained and serviced by suitably trained personnel, capable of
safely following the procedures and guidelines given in these instructions.
1.3 About the ADT Thermometer
The ADT Thermometer is a highly accurate, non contact thermometer
designed to be used in conjunction with the LMG AE Processor from which it
derives the nominal ±20V d.c. power supply required by its integral
electronic circuits.
The thermometer features include:
• A 3.5m/11.4ft Fibroptic lightguide, enabling the thermometer’s
electronics to be located away from the often hostile measurement
location.
• A 500mm/19.6in optic head focus distance.
• Electrical connections for a 4 to 20mA output, linear over the
temperature span of the thermometer, and an emissivity input for high
accuracy temperature measurement.
• A full range of mountings and accessories for use where the
thermometer is to be installed into hostile environments.

3.1 Positioning the Optic Head
In many cases, there are few options on location of the optic head, as this is
generally dictated by the particular measurement application. Observe the
following precautions;
1) The thermometer must be positioned such that, at the chosen target
 distance,thetargetislargeenoughtocompletelylltheoptichead's
 eldofview.Refertothetargetsizetables,Section4.2.The
 thermometer'sviewofthetargetareamustnotbeobstructed.
2) Ensurethattheanglebetweentheoptichead'slineofsightandthe
target area is as near to 90° as possible. However, if this is not possible,
a viewing angle of up to 45° is acceptable.
3) If the optic head is located in an atmosphere containing a high
proportion of dust/smoke etc, an air purge must be used in conjunction
with the optic head. This prevents the lens from becoming dirty. Refer to
the Installation Guide supplied with the mounting/purge assembly.
4) The optic head/lightguide temperature must not exceed the maximum
 specied.

3.2 Installing the Optic Head
The optic head can be mounted directly into a threaded hole in a
user-supplied mounting plate, or connected to one of the range of Land
Fibroptic thermometer mountings by means of the Quick Release Fitting, Land
Part Nº 029.591. To mount the optic head into a plate, refer to Fig. 3(a):
1) Unscrew the clamp nut nearest the lens on the optic head.
2) Pass the optic head through a Ø 22.5mm hole in the plate.
3) Re-ttheclampnutontotheoptichead.Tightenthenutsothe
mounting plate is held securely between the two clamp nuts on the
optic head.

3.3 Installing the Lightguide
Wheninstallingthebreopticslightguide,observethefollowingprecautions;
1) Ensure that the lightguide is not subjected to any tension or undue force.
It is not necessary to attach the lightguide to surrounding structures,
unless, by leaving it hanging, it might vibrate violently or become a
nuisance or hazard.
2) Install the lightguide as if it were a lightweight electrical cable and
protect it if necessary. The minimum bend radius is 50mm.
3.4 Positioning the Thermometer
When choosing a location for the thermometer, observe the following
precautions;
1) If the thermometer is to be installed in a location where the ambient
temperatureisoutsidetherangespeciedforthethermometer,it
must be mounted in a special cooling/heating jacket available from
Land Instruments.
2) If the thermometer is to be used in conjunction with a protection jacket,
refer to the installation guide provided with the jacket.
3) If the thermometer is to be installed in a location where the ambient
temperatureiswithintherangespeciedforthethermometer,itcanbe
mounted using the two tapped holes on the mounting pad. Either hole
can be used for direct tripod mounting.
4) Choose a location for the thermometer which is free from excessive
vibration, contamination and moisture.
5) It is important that, in order to prevent any possibility of water ingress
into the electronics/detector module, the thermometer is mounted in the
orientation shown in Fig. 2.
6) It is recommended that, in order to minimise the build-up of dirt etc. on
the electrical and lightguide connectors, the thermometer is mounted
such that these connectors are on the underside as shown in Fig. 2.

3.5 Electrical Connections
The electrical connections for the thermometer power supply, emissivity input
and temperature output are made via the 6-way socket on the rear of the
thermometer. See Fig. 4.
Electrical connections to the thermometer must be made through the pre-wired
plug supplied with the thermometer or through the plug housed in the
protective jacket back cap.
To connect either plug type to the thermometer socket, see Fig. 5:
• Align the red marker near the lugs of the plug with the red marker
located above the keyway in the thermometer socket.
• Push the plug into the socket, ensuring that the locking sleeve slides
forwards, locking the plug to the socket.
To disconnect either plug type from the thermometer socket, see Fig. 5:
• Grip the locking sleeve portion of the plug.
• Slide the locking sleeve rearwards to release the locking mechanism and
disconnect the plug from the thermometer socket.

5 Emissivity
In order to obtain accurate temperature measurements, the emissivity value
of the target surface must be known.
If you have a query regarding the emissivity of the target in your
measurement application, contact Land Instruments International for advice.
5.1 Die Emissivity
The ADT Thermometer is a designated instrument, used primarily on
aluminium extrusion die applications. The emissivity of the target area can be
pre-determined and is given as below:
Iron & Steel Dies (unoxidised) 0.30
Iron & Steel Dies (oxidised) 0.85

6 Maintenance
6.1 Optic Head
After initial installation, make regular inspections of the lens in order to
establish a cleaning cycle.
If the lens requires cleaning, it is preferable to do so without disconnecting
the lightguide from the optic head.
Cleanthelenswithasoftclothandaproprietarycleaninguid.Takecarenot
to scratch or mark the lens.
6.2 Air Supply
If an air purge system is utilised to keep the Fibroptic Thermometer lens free
fromcontamination,theairlterofthisairpurgesystemmustbechecked
atregularintervals.Thecontaminationrateoftheairlterdependson
the quality of the air supplied to the system. Therefore it is essential that
this purge air supply is kept as clean as possible, free from oil or any other
contamination.
