Distance to Spot (Fig. D)
IR Thermometers have a "Cone Effect" where the further the
thermometer is from the object, the larger the area being
measured. The IR Thermometer has a 12:1 distance to spot
(12:1) ratio: for every 300 mm away from the object it will
measure 25 mm. The object that is being tested needs to be
larger than the spot size to ensure accurate readings.
Key Notes If Having Trouble Taking
Measurement
1. Make sure to apply masking tape or flat black paint to
surfaces that are highly reflective (use the default 0.95
emissivity setting).
2. Make sure to have the correct emissivity for the material
you are testing. Refer to Emissivity and Nominal
Emissivity Table.
3. Clean the material before testing if there is heavy dirt,
grease, etc.
