Small infrared sensor.


The Sniper handheld infrared radiation pyrometer 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
 has been designed to provide non-contact temperature measurements for high temperature measuring applications. With temperature ranges from 1,000[degrees]F (538[degrees]C) to 5,000[degrees]F (2,760[degrees]C), this low cost, small sized non-contact sensor is said to be ideal for heat treating, induction heating induction heating

Method of raising the temperature of an electrically conductive material by subjecting it to an alternating electromagnetic field. Energy in the electric currents induced in the object is dissipated as heat.
, welding welding, process for joining separate pieces of metal in a continuous metallic bond. Cold-pressure welding is accomplished by the application of high pressure at room temperature; forge welding (forging) is done by means of hammering, with the addition of heat.  and semiconductor manufacturing applications. Small, battery-powered and portable, these instruments are said to be ideal for troubleshooting and spot checking temperatures. Since they view energy at wavelengths which are not impeded im·pede  
tr.v. im·ped·ed, im·ped·ing, im·pedes
To retard or obstruct the progress of. See Synonyms at hinder1.

 by glass, the Sniper model can look through glass or Pyrex viewing parts in ovens, furnaces and reactors.
