Infrared thermometers measure temperature using blackbody radiation (generally infrared) emitted from objects. They are sometimes called laser thermometers if a laser is used to help aim the thermometer, or non-contact thermometers to describe the device’s ability to measure temperature from a distance. By knowing the amount of infrared energy emitted by the object and its emissivity, the object's temperature can be determined.
Infrared thermometers can be used to serve a wide variety of temperature monitoring functions including:
- Checking mechanical equipment or electrical circuit breaker boxes or outlets for hot spots
- Checking heater or oven temperature, for calibration and control purposes
- Detecting hot spots / performing diagnostics in electrical circuit board manufacturing
- Checking for hot spots in fire fighting situations
- Monitoring materials in process of heating and cooling, for research and development or manufacturing quality control situations
Temp Range: -58°F - 752°F (-50°C - 400°C);
