OMEGA's OS550A Series (Upgrade from OS550 Series) industrial, high performance, economical thermometer/transmitter offers a wide choice of temperature ranges, optical fields of view and 3 analog outputs (1 mV/degree, 4 to 20 mA, and 0 to 5 Vdc) to feed directly into panel meters, recorders, temperature/process controllers, data loggers, data acquisition systems, or other process instrumentation.

Since the OS550A Series infrared thermometers do not use chopper motors or vibrator mechanisms, they can be mounted in any position and in hostile environments without suffering any loss in performance.

OS551A-MA-5....is there an equivalent that can be used instead of this unit...? Pls advise.....also is it still available for ordering...?

Asked by: Bob8900
The OS550A series is no longer sold and the OSAO-Series is a good product to review as an alternative.
