384A Infrared Contact & Non-Contact Thermometer

Description

The 384A Infrared Contact & Non-Contact Thermometer can measure up to 1,832°F, a non-contact (IR) thermometer with laser guidance to assist in hard-to-reach areas. The high temperature combination infrared thermometer is Contact & Non-Contact, the gun-style thermometer can easily switch between detection modes for accuracy and flexibility in different applications and scenarios.

• Leaks around cooler or freezer doors

WARNING LASER RADIATION, DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM.

1. What does “distance to spot ratio” mean?

The laser spot needs to be showing inside the target area. An 8:1 “distance to spot ratio” means you are measuring a 1” diameter area at a distance of 8”.

2. How far can I measure?

Distance is unlimited. The size of the target area sets the limit on distance for accurate measurements. Example: If the area you wish to measure is 1 foot in diameter, then you will need to be within 8 feet to record an accurate temperature.

3. What is the smallest target I can read?

Approximately one-half inch in diameter.

4. What is emmisivity?

This is a ratio of an object’s infrared emission compared to a theoretical black body considered 1. Emissivity is always less than 1. Adjustable emissivity allows your non-contact thermometer to be adjusted to the surface you are checking to make readings more accurate.
