The FOV can be easily calculated, according to the ray law

f= focal length of the lensP=Pitch of the sensitive elementsNCol/Row=Number of elements in Column or Row, depending if the FOV in horizontal or vertical direction should be calculated

Due to spherical aberrations we will provide detailed information concerning field curvature and distortion, if required.

If the application requires different types of coatings, we can also provide these, including LWP and band pass filters.

Set

For thermal imaging and easy evaluation of our arrays, we designed an application set in a modular metal housing for better handling. The modules fi eld of view depends on the built-in lens and can be varied on demand. The object temperature range depends on the array type and lens.For every array type we also provide a matching application set in our portfolio, which allows full sensor control. The application set processes the data and communicates via Ethernet/UDP to a PC. On PC side, the data stream can be visualized and logged with a Graphical User Interface.

Cleaning and Handling of Sensors with Optical Elements

Cleaning of Filter with Isopropyl Alcohol or Acetone This is the method most universally used for cleaning optical elements with or without coatings. Filters or lenses mounted in our sensors may be cleaned rubbing the surfaces lightly with a clean, soft, all-cotton cloth or cotton swab during immersion in solvent or simply moistened with the solvent. The parts are then immediately wiped dry with another clean, soft, all-cotton cloth or cotton swab.

Cleaning with Detergent and Water A very mild, non-abrasive detergent (one which does not contain additives) and water may also be used for cleaning optical elements. In general, a detergent and water mixture is an excellent method for removing fingerprints and other smudges. The liquid detergent is first mixed with deionized water (proportions recommended by the manufacturer should be followed). The element is then washed, rinsed, and immediately wiped dry. Use a clean, soft cloth when cleaning and drying. If the part is allowed to dry in air, a permanent stain may result. Please note:

Do not use isopropyl alcohol or acetone or detergent if the elements will be mounted in an assembly with a finish which may be soluble by these solvents.

Please avoid glass isolation being moistened by solvent. If the part is allowed to dry in air, a permanent stain may result.

Handling Advises

Sensors with optical elements deserve special consideration in their handling and care. Ordinarily, filters or lenses are cleaned and inspected prior to shipment. If proper care is exercised during handling cleaning should not be necessary prior to use.

Wear gloves when handling a sensor or optical element. Lightweight nylon or cotton gloves which are relatively lint-free are recommended.

Avoid touching the surface of filters and lenses. Protect devices from static discharge and static fields. Thermopile sensors are electrostatic sensitive devices. Sensors should be handled over an

electrostatic protected work area. Precautions should be taken to avoid reverse polarity of power supply for sensors with integrated

signal processing. Reversed polarity of power supply results in a destroyed unit. Sensors should rest preferably in a partitioned container where the mounted filters or lenses will

be not coming into contact with other material. During storage optical surfaces should be covered to avoid contamination from the surrounding

environment. A covered container can eliminate damage during transportation and storage. Sensors or optical elements should be stored in a restricted access area to eliminate handling by

untrained personnel. Do not expose the sensors to aggressive detergents such as freon, trichlorethylen, etc. Avoid rotating the sensors when they are soldered into a PCB or something similar Shortening of the pins is not suggested. This may cause cracks in the glass of the pins and result

in a leakage. If this is necessary, a tool for this is recommended. Please contact Heimann Sensor for

further information.

Soldering Recommendations

Attention: For all of our array sensors we give no guarantee on the calibration and its performance if the pins are shortened by the customer. Additionally we strongly recommend to not soldering the sensor with its back plate directly to a PCB. This will cause different thermal conductivity compared to air and the measurement results could get worse. Use a minimum gap between PCB and backplate of 2mm or more. The glass of the pins to the back plate can get damage by applying high temperatures (during soldering), which will lead into a lower temperature reading what cannot be repaired afterwards.

Manual Iron Soldering and Automatic Point-to-Point Iron Soldering

Manual Iron Soldering and Automatic Point-to-Point Iron Soldering methods are allowed for TO packages. It is recommended for through hole applications to shield the package body from soldering heat by PCB or similar. The soldering iron temperature should be set as low as possible (maximum 350C) and should not exceed recommended soldering time (maximum 5 seconds).

Wave Soldering

Wave soldering is not recommended for Surface Mounted Device packages. Wave soldering is allowed for through hole application. A pre-heating step is required and should be performed in accordance with international standard recommendations. For TO packaged products, during the pre-heat and soldering phase, the temperature of the body shall not exceed 170°C.

Reflow Soldering

Reflow techniques can be used to solder Surface Mounted Device packages. Temperature profile should conform to those described in Jedec-020 standard (recommended reflow furnace profile below). Reflow soldering creates a risk for exposing the sensor body to excessive temperatures around and above the TG of used epoxies. Process validation has been carried out by samples exposed to maximum temperature of below furnace profile.
