Model 400 Touchless Infrared Thermometer
The ThermoHAWKâ„¢ Series touchless, thermometers allow you to instantly check the surface temperature of almost any object. The ThermoHAWK'S' unique size allows it to be easily carried in a pocket or a purse. With applications from testing surface temperature in the kitchen to the workshop. The uses of this incredible device are almost unlimited.
The ThermoHAWK™ units contain a patent-pending thermopile sensor on a chip technology which provides unique advantages over the older pyrometer infrared sensors. This breakthrough technology is what allows the ThermoHAWK™ to be incredibly compact in size and does not require the units to be calibrated for years. The ThermoHAWK’s unique metal cylinder design is also able to prevent electromagnetic and electrostatic interferences during temperature measurement and eliminates the effect of ambient temperature changes to produce accurate temperature values.
What is Infrared Temperature Testing?
Surface temperature measurement traditionally has been a slow process that requires contact with a surface probe or sensor. This creates issues with surfaces that are too hot to touch or move. Also, because constant contact is required and readings are slow, continuous surface temperature monitoring is difficult. These problems have been overcome with developments in infrared (IR) measurement technology.
Understanding how infrared thermometers work is relatively simple. All objects emit infrared energy. As objects increase in heat, their molecules become more active and in turn emit more infrared energy. Optical sensors placed inside an infrared thermometer collect the infrared energy emitted by an object and send the energy to a detector. The detector then is able to take the signal and convert it to a digital reading.
IR thermometers offer many advantages over older contact surface temperature measurement devices, such as:
IR thermometers have the ability to take temperature measurements of hot, hazardous, sterile, or small areas without contact.
IR thermometers are substantially more accurate compared to many contact devices. (The ThermoHawkTM has a margin of error of only ± 2.5%.)
IR thermometers have a substantially shorter response time compared to contact thermometers. It is not uncommon to wait 30 seconds or more when taking a surface measurement with a conventional contact thermometer. IR thermometers have response times as low as ½ a second.
