Safety
thermoMETER CT
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 moder-
ate 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

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
1.3 Notes on CE Identification
The following applies to the thermoMETER CT:
- EU directive 2004/108/EC
- EU directive 2011/65/EU, “RoHS“ category 9
Products which carry the CE mark satisfy the requirements of the quoted EU directives and the European
standards (EN) listed therein. The EC declaration of conformity is kept available according to EC regulation,
article 10 by the authorities responsible at
MICRO-EPSILON MESSTECHNIK
GmbH & Co. KG
Königbacher Straße 15
94496 Ortenburg / Germany
The system is designed for use in industry and laboratory and satisfies the requirements of the standards
- EN 61326-1: 2006
- EN 61326-2-3: 2006
The system satisfies the requirements if they comply with the regulations described in the instruction manual
for installation and operation.

1.4 Proper Use
- The thermoMETER CT is designed for use in industrial and laboratory areas. It is used for non-contact
temperature measurement.
- The system may only be operated within the limits specified in the technical data, see Chap. 2..
- Use the system in such a way that in case of malfunctions or failure personnel or machinery are not endan-
gered.
- Take additional precautions for safety and damage prevention for safety-related applications.
1.5 Proper Environment
- Protection class:
Sensor: IP 65 (NEMA 4)
Controller: IP 65 (NEMA 4)
- Operating temperature:
Sensor: See also Chapter Measurement Specification, see Chap. 2.5
Controller: 0 ... 85 °C (+32 ... +185 °F)
Avoid abrupt changes of the operating temperature of both the sensor and the controller.
> Inaccurate measuring values
- Storage temperature:
Sensor: See also Chapter Measurement Specification, see Chap. 2.5
Controller: -40 ... 85 °C (-40 ... +185 °F)
- Humidity: 10 ... 95 %, non-condensing
- EMC acc. to: EN 61326-1: 2006
EN 61326-2-3: 2006

Technical Data
thermoMETER CT
2. Technical Data
2.1 Functional Principle
The sensors of the thermoMETER CT series are non-contact measuring infrared temperature sensors. They
calculate the surface temperature based on the emitted infrared energy of objects, see Chap. 13.
The sensor housing of the thermoMETER CT is made from stainless steel (protection class IP 65/ NEMA 4),
the controller is placed in a separate box made of die casting zinc.
iThe thermoMETER CT sensor is a sensitive optical system. Please only use the thread for mechanical
installation.
Avoid mechanical violence on the sensor.
