Temperature measurement, surface temperature, intelligent pyrometer

Temperature is a critical factor in many processes and must often be measured. Non-contact infrared measurement is often the better alternative for this as compared with tactile methods. Temperature measurement without this method can no longer be imagined for machine maintenance, process control and quality control. Intelligent handheld units are used for mobile usage. Stationary IR sensors are suitable if the temperature has to be permanently measured at one position.
