    Infrared Thermometers Introduction The 566 and 568 Infrared Thermometers (“the thermometers”) are for non-contact temperature measurement. These thermometers determine an object’s surface temperature by measuring the amount of infrared energy radiated by the object’s surface. The thermometers also support contact-temperature measurement via K- type thermocouple.
