Temperature check on ventilation ducts.

Points to watch out for:
– The air is not measured, but rather the temperature of the grilles.
– Do not take measurement on bare metals.
– Do not take measurement too close to the measuring point.
Checking heat profiles or detecting critical points in buildings.
Points to watch out for:
– Materials such as wallpaper, wood, plaster, painted window frames and glass are easy to measure due to their high emission level of between 0.9 and 0.95.
– Either measure bare metal frames with a contact thermometer or apply a coating that increases the emission level.
Points to watch out for:
– Do not take measurement on bare metals.
– Note differences in emission levels
General applications of infrared measuring technology
Quick temperature measurement for road construction.
Points to watch out for:
– Permissible operating temperatures of measuring instrument
– Measuring spot/measuring distance
 Measuring instrument must have adjusted to ambient temperature.

– Only measure materials with
A high emission level, as “cold sky radiation” at -50 to -60 °C present a disturbance variable. If necessary, screen the sky e.g. with an umbrella over the measuring point.
Tip: Use a measuring instrument with a small measuring spot at a large distance.
In food inspection
Points to watch out for:
– Only surface temperature is determined contactless.
=> In the case of critical values, always verify with contact thermometer!
– Observe measuring spot/measuring distance
– Measuring instrument must have adjusted to ambient temperature.
– The ideal distance between measur-ing instrument and cooled product/ packaging is 1 to 2 cm. Outer card-board packaging should be opened and the measurement taken inside the packaging.
– With film-sealed food, only the temperature of the film is measured. Therefore only measure at points at which the film is in direct contact with the product.
– Do not measure at occlusions.
Tip: Use combi measuring instrument (e.g. testo 104 IR)
