    onto the pixels of the detector. Without the correct focus, the thermal image can be blurry and the radiometric data will be inaccurate. Out-of-focus infrared images are frequently unusable or of little value. 6.6 - Shutter The thermal image of the Thermal Imager becomes blurry, when the Thermal Imager no correcting after some minutes or the Thermal Imager changes target.
  • Page 12: Temperature Measurement

    6.10 - Temperature Measurement All objects radiate infrared energy. The quantity of energy radiated is base on the actual surface temperature and the surface emissivity of the object. The Thermal Imager senses the infrared energy from the surface of the object and uses this data to calculate an estimated temperature value.
  • Page 13: Reflected Temperature

    6.12 - Reflected Temperature Using the offset factor, the reflection is calculated out due to the low emissivity and the accuracy of the temperature measurement with Infrared Instruments is improved. In most cases, the reflected temperature is identical to the ambient air temperature. Only when objects with strong emissions with much higher temperature are in the proximity of the object being measured should be determined and used.
