Pyrometers.


Infrared An invisible band of radiation at the lower end of the visible light spectrum. With wavelengths from 750 nm to 1 mm, infrared starts at the end of the microwave spectrum and ends at the beginning of visible light.  radiation pyrometers Noun 1. radiation pyrometer - a pyrometer for estimating the temperature of distant sources of heat; radiation is focussed on a thermojunction connected in circuit with a galvanometer
pyrometer - a thermometer designed to measure high temperatures
 for precise, non-contact temperature measurement and control are highlighted in company literature. Where traditional measurement techniques cannot be used, in severe environments or under difficult operating conditions such as high-speed processing or fast-changing system temperatures, infrared instruments are said to precisely determine temperatures without contact. IR radiation pyrometers are said to give practically instantaneous in·stan·ta·ne·ous  
adj.
1. Occurring or completed without perceptible delay: Relief was instantaneous.

2.
 readings of the temperature of virtually any material, solid (opaque or transparent) or liquid (including molten metals at temperatures above 4,000[degrees]F), according to according to
prep.
1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians.

2. In keeping with: according to instructions.

3.
 the literature. The firm's instruments are said to be precise, typically providing accuracies of [+ or -] 2% or [+ or -] 1% of full scale, with excellent reproducibility reproducibility Lab medicine  The degree of agreement among repeated measurements of a particular parameter, presented in terms of a standard deviation or coefficient of variation of the results in a set of measurements  and high sensitivity. They are easy to install and as simple to operate as aiming a camera, according to the literature. The company's IR radiation pyrometers are all said to feature state-of-the-art design and modular construction, with computer-grade components for long, trouble-free operation.
