TG-2000 Distance from Target Thermometers measure the surface temperature of an object by sensing its emitted, reflected, and transmitted energy. The sensor collects this energy from the area being measured (spot size). The spot size varies as the distance to the target changes. The farther the distance from the area being targeted, the larger the spot size.

TG-2000 Emissivity Emissivity is the ability of an object to emit infrared energy. Most objects or surfaces have an emissivity value of about 0.95. Some objects, such as polished or shiny metallic surfaces, may have much lower emissivity. Using an infrared thermometer to measure the temperature of such objects will produce inaccurate results.
* For improved accuracy, allow unit 30 minutes to adjust to large change in temperature. Statement of Conformity Greenlee Textron Inc. is certified in accordance with ISO 9001 (2000) for our Quality Management Systems. The instrument enclosed has been checked and/or calibrated using equipment that is traceable to the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST).
