Temperature Measurement


New IR thermometer from SKF

May 2011 Temperature Measurement

SKF has extended its infrared thermometer range with the introduction of its most advanced unit – the TKTL 30.

The lightweight instrument is designed for safe temperature measurement at a distance. Operation is user-friendly; simply aim, pull the trigger and the object temperature is shown on the display.

The TKTL 30 has a wide infrared measuring range, high distance-to-spot ratio and dual laser sighting. Supplied with a temperature probe, the TKTL 30 can also be used for direct contact measuring applications.

For professional maintenance technicians, the new thermometer meets most requirements. As a non-contact temperature measurement tool, using the TKTL 30 can help better evaluate the condition of running machinery, improve safety and reduce downtime. Typical applications include the inspection of bearing housings, HVAC equipment and energy audits.
