IS infrared thermometers from Raytek

July 2015 Temperature Measurement

Intrinsically safe infrared (IR) thermometers are not common to all infrared suppliers, however, Raytek has available a full range of IS units for fixed or portable applications.

Raytek provides a complete range of IR thermometers with IS certification approved and certified by SANAS. The units are designed for accurate temperature measurement and investigation in all types of environments. IS models include portable and fixed units with simple two wire loops and programmable ranges up to 2000°C.

The popularity of IR thermometers continues to grow because of their ease of use, reliability and affordability. Like traditional thermometers, IR devices translate hot and cold into numeric measurements. However, unlike traditional methods, an IR thermometer does not require any contact with the object under measurement. Simply point and read the temperature on the display.

Instantaneous reading and reliable results make trouble shooting quick and easy, with less chance for error. IR thermometers help process and maintenance engineers alike to check the plant, giving them the information needed to assess temperatures and plan remedial action where required.
