In our online store you will find a large assortment of infrared thermometer models for non-contact temperature measurement. Our non-contact infrared thermometer measures through infrared radiation from a body or object. The infrared thermometer includes a pilot light beam for better orientation. The infrared thermometer only measures the surface temperature of a surface, which is not, for example, a glass. Some models have set a default value K, in others the K value can be selected depending on the material to be measured (paper, wood, metal surfaces, ...).

If you must measure a shiny metallic surface, such as a polished cylinder surface, you can use the equipment to measure the temperature trend. The infrared thermometer is ideal for non-contact temperature measurement. This makes it possible to measure temperatures between -50 and +4000 ºC. The infrared thermometer is also called a Pyrometer. The inventor of the pyrometer is William Chandler Roberts-Austen. Objects with a temperature greater than 0 Kelvin radiate. The infrared thermometer only measures the surface temperature of the next visible object, so it is not possible to measure through glass . In case the object to be measured is colder than the infrared thermometer, the radiant flux will be negative. That is why the infrared thermometer radiates heat to the object to be measured, which can also be evaluated.

The infrared thermometer has several advantages. For example, it provides the measurement result immediately, between 1 s and 10 µs. There are also no errors caused by poor contact. Other advantages are that there is no wear and tear, and there are no problems with moving objects. It can also measure in high voltage conduits, electromagnetic fields or aggressive materials.
