Page 40: Principle Of Operation
The specifications of the lens decisively determine the optical path of the infrared thermometer, which is characterized by the ratio Distance-to-Spot-size. The spectral filter selects the wavelength range, which is relevant for the temperature measurement. The detector in cooperation with the processing electronics transforms the emitted infrared radiation into electrical signals. optris LS – E2006-01-A... -
Page 41: Emissivity
Now set the emissivity to 0,95 and take the temperature of the sticker. Afterwards, determine the temperature of the adjacent area on the measuring object and adjust the emissivity according to the value of the temperature of the sticker. optris LS – E2006-01-A... - Page 42 (Appendix A and B). These are average values, only. The actual emissivity of a material depends on the following factors: temperature measuring angle geometry of the surface thickness of the material constitution of the surface (polished, oxidized, rough, sandblast) spectral range of the measurement transmissivity (e.g. with thin films) optris LS – E2006-01-A...
