A new handheld, infra-red temperature measurement device from Micro Epsilon (UK) enables engineers to measure the surface temperature of objects down to 13mm. Micro-Epsilon’s Optris MiniSight and MiniSightPlus portable measuring devices are suitable for maintenance technicians, plant engineers, test engineers, service and field engineers, who need to quickly but accurately measure the temperature of critical components, systems or equipment. The device is capable of measuring temperatures from -32 to +530C. Applications range from measuring the temperature of motors, drives, bearings, valves, heating and ventilation equipment, through to electrical connectors, fuses, electric motors, electrical wiring and control cabinets. The device is also suited to automotive tasks, including engine and catalytic convertor temperature checks, the scanning of ignition systems, tyre checks, the analysis of cooling system restrictions and for air conditioning system diagnosis.
