FUNCTIONS/APPLICATIONS

Infrared thermometer Maxwell 3 CONDTROL is designed for

non-contact measurement of object surface temperature.

Ergonomic, shock-resistant housing, small size and weight,

intuitive interface, laser pointer, scanning mode provide ease

and convenience of temperature measurement of dangerous,

moving, hard-to-reach distant objects in less than one second

at short press of the trigger.

The principle of operation of infrared thermometer is based

on measuring the intensity of infrared radiation of the object

surface.

4) Emissivity

All objects emit thermal energy. The volume of radiated

energy depends on the surface temperature

and emissivity of the object. The IR-thermometer measures

the intensity of radiation and

uses it to calculate the temperature of the object. Objects with

different surfaces but

equal temperature emit different amount of thermal energy.

Most of the objects and materials, for example, painted

metals, wood, water, leather, fabric have a high emissivity

(0.9 and more) and emit more energy than shiny surfaces and

unpainted metals with emissivity less than 0.6. Adjustment

of emissivity allows the device to take it into account and to

minimize the measurement error.

Measurements

Switch on the device. Aim the device at the object of

measurement and press the trigger. Keep the trigger

pressed to enter continuous measurement. Symbol of active

measurement will appear on the display. Measurement

results will appear on the display in real time mode.

If measurement result is beyond the set limit, LED indicator
turns red, the symbol

Hi

or

Low

appears on the display. When

the trigger is released, the device keeps the last measured
values on the display. The symbol appears on the display.

OPTICAL RESOLUTION

As the distance from the device to the object increases, the

size of the measured spot on object surface increases as well.

To determine the size of the spot (S) you need to divide the

distance from the device to the target (D) by 12.

Laser points serve as the reference to determine the size and

position of measured spot.

125 84 42 - spot (S)

1500 1000 500 - distance (D)
