How
the quickTEMP Works
All objects emit measurable infrared
energy. The quickTEMP uses special optics to gather infrared
energy from a target surface and focuses this energy onto a custom
detector. At that point, the detector will convert the infrared
energy into an electrical signal proportionate to the temperature
of the target surface. The final outcome is a digital temperature
measurement in degrees Fahrenheit or Centigrade.
A
quickTEMP Demonstration
It's easy to operate the quickTEMP.
Simply point at the desired target, press and hold the "on"
button for the temperature to display - no contact is ever needed.
The quickTEMP has an initial temperature response time
of 1 second and a continous reading to be used for thermal profiling.
Measuring
with the quickTEMP
Direct the quickTEMP toward
the target area. The total infrared energy emitted into the sensor
will be averaged from within the field of view.
The sensor's field of view is denoted by a distance-to-spot ratio
(D/S). The quickTEMP has a D/S ratio of 3:1 and measures
the emitted energy, within the field of view, one-third the size
of the working distance (for example, at 3 inches away, your spot
size is 1 inch, etc.)
