1. Safety
The handling of the system assumes knowledge of the instruction manual.
1.1 Symbols Used
The following symbols are used in the instruction manual:
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or mode-
rate injuries.
Indicates a situation which, if not avoided, may lead to property damage
Indicates a user action.
iIndicates a user tip.
Measure Indicates a hardware or a button/menu in the software
1.2 Warnings
Connect the power supply and the display/output device in accordance with the safety regulations for electri-
cal equipment.
> Danger of injury
> Damage to or destruction of the sensor and/or controller
Avoid shock and vibration to the sensor and the controller.
> Damage to or destruction of the sensor and/or controller
The power supply must not exceed the specified limits.
> Damage to or destruction of the sensor and/or controller
Protect the sensor cable against damage.
> Destruction of the sensor, failure of the measuring device

Safety
thermoMETER CSmicro
Do not kink the sensor cable and bend the sensor cable in tight radius. The minimum bending radius is
14 mm (static). A dynamic movement is not allowed.
> Damage to the sensor cable, failure of the measuring device
No solvent-based cleaning agents may have an effect on the sensor (neither for the optics nor the housing)
> Damage to or destruction of the sensor
Avoid static electricity and keep away from very strong EMF (electromagnetic fields) e.g. arc welders or
induction heaters.
> Damage to or destruction of the sensor
Avoid changes of the operating temperature.
> Inaccurate measuring values
If sensors of the type CS / CSmi / CSmi2W und CsmiHS are connected to a USB-programmer TM-USBK-CS,
please ensure that the used CompactConnect Software has got a version 1.8.7 or higher.
> Version below 1.8.7 will destroy the sensor after the first write attempt!

2. Technical Data
2.1 Functional Principle
The sensors of the thermoMETER CSmicro series are non-contact measuring infrared temperature sensors.
They calculate the surface temperature based on the emitted infrared energy of objects, see Chap. 11.
The sensor housing of the thermoMETER CSmicro is made from stainless steel (protection class IP 65), the
controller is integrated in the cable.
iThe thermoMETER CSmicro sensor is a sensitive optical system. Please only use the thread for mechanical installation.
Avoid mechanical violence on the sensor.

Optical Charts
thermoMETER CSmicro
4. Optical Charts
The following optical charts show the diameter of the measuring spot in dependence on the distance
between measuring object and sensor. The spot size refers to 90 % of the radiation energy. The distance is
always measured from the front edge of the sensor housing / CF-lens holder/ air purge.
iThe size of the measuring object and the optical resolution of the infrared thermometer determine the maximum distance between sensor and measuring object.
In order to prevent measuring errors the object should fill out the field of view of the optics completely.
Consequently, the spot should at all times have at least the same size like the object or should be
smaller than that.
D = Distance from front of the sensor to the object
S = Spot size
The D:S ratio is valid for the focus point.
