INFRARED THERMOMETERS     What is an Infrared Thermometer? An infrared thermometer (Infrared Pyrometer) is a non-contact temperature measurement device. Infrared Thermometers detect the infrared energy that is emitted by all materials, above absolute zero (0°Kelvin). Using various laws of Physics this detected energy is converted to a temperature reading. Why use an Infrared Thermometer? Infrared thermometers are generally used when conventional contact methods are not suitable. This may be because the material is moving, or it would be damaged by contact, or it is too hot or dangerous to touch. In these cases an Infrared Thermometer is the ideal instrument. Infrared Thermometers can measure temperatures from around -20 to 3000°C, which covers probably 99% of applications. However the selection of an Infrared Thermometer requires care and attention to the application detail, otherwise the wrong instrument can be specified with resultant poor performance.   Terrafirma Instruments can help you determine the correct instrument for your application. Using the knowledge gained in over 30 years in the industry we can quickly specify the best, cost effective solution, for your application need.     EMAIL: sales@terrafirma-inst.co.uk   MAKING INFRARED WORK FOR YOU!
