Mini IR Infrared Thermometer Extech IR100

Key Features:

• Temperature range: -33 to 230°C (-34 to 446°F)
• Field of view 1:1
• Wide temperature range
• Min./Max values function
• Non-contact surface temperature measurement, ideal in the food sector
• Accurately, clean and fast temperature measurement
• Infrared thermometer for professionals
• Lets you check the cold chain in storage and transport
• Measurement in just 0.5 seconds

The Mini IR incorporates a 1:1 optic ratio (target distance/diameter ratio) and a fixed emissivity of 0.95 making it suitable for a wide range of food and industrial applications, its fixed 0.95 emissivity covers 90 percent of all surface applications. The unit does not incorporate laser alignment, however this will appeal to those who are health and safety conscious and do not require this feature. The Mini IR Meter has an economical miniature sized design for better convenience. 

The Mini IR features a two-button keypad, incorporating measure, mode functions, pressing the mode button allows the user to select °C/°F, display the Max./ Min value and lock function.

The max/min function displays the highest and lowest recorded temperatures over the measurement period.

The Mini IR features a large, easy to read LCD display auto-power off facility that turns the instrument off after 15 seconds, maximising battery life.

It is housed in a robust ABS case and is powered by one CR 2032 3V battery.

Note: If you select Accredited Calibration Certificate (IPAC) when purchasing this product, click the Product Customization TAB and fill in the second field (TEXT - Required temperature calibration points.) with the respective required points or simply attach a copy of a calibration certificate.

To optimize surface temperature accuracy:

1. Determine the emissivity of the object to adjust the spectrum range of the instrument that can be used for measurement.
2. Avoid reflection from other sources of temperature by thermally enveloping the object to be measured
3. For high temperature objects, use smaller wavelength instruments when possible.
4. For semi-transparent materials such as plastic films and glass, make sure that the bottom surface (behind the object) is uniform and below the temperature of the object.
5. Hold the instrument perpendicular to the surface of the object when the emissivity is below 0.9.
6. In all cases, do not exceed the 30 degree angle of incidence.
