MISSIVITY
The intensity of infrared radiation, which is
emitted by each body, depends on the
temperature as well as on the radiation features
of the surface of the measuring object.
The emissivity ( = Epsilon) is used as a stable
factor of the material, with which to describe the
ability of the body to emit infrared energy. If the
emissivity chosen is too high, the infrared
thermometer may display a temperature value
which is much lower than the real temperature.
The unit will be delivered with a preset fixed
emissivity of 0,95. This emissivity value is very
common for most organic materials and painted
or oxidized surfaces.
Shiny or metallic surfaces may result in
inaccurate reading due to reflexions. To prevent
this, cover the measuring surface with either flat
black paint or with plastic labels.
