  Benefits of Using Medium-wavelength (MWIR) Thermal Imagers Instead of Widely Used Long-wavelength (LWIR) Cameras

  Thursday, February 2, 2023 | Manfred Hayk

  Products

  Sir William Herschel discovered the relative energy of sunlight by using a prism and passing sunlight through it. The rainbow colours appeared, and he found that the temperature was rising when he used a thermometer to measure the temperature at the end of the visible red light.

  How to Measure Low Temperatures on Shiny Metal Surfaces

  Monday, October 17, 2022 | Manfred Hayk

  Products

  To measure the temperature of shiny metal surfaces, such as metal strips, using non-contact infrared temperature measurement methods, like pyrometers, IR-scanner or thermal imagers, several parameters need to put into consideration to get the most accurate temperature reading in the process.

  How an Uncalibrated Optical Pyrometer Can Affect Temperature Accuracy of TMT Readings on Steam Methane Reformers

  Wednesday, October 5, 2022 | James Cross

  Products

  We recently conducted some customer training on using the Cyclops for tube metal temperature measurements and found large temperature errors when using an old, damaged, and uncalibrated Cyclops C100.

  What is Background Radiation? And Why is it Important to Compensate for it?

  Wednesday, September 14, 2022 | Manfred Hayk

  Products

  During discussions on thermal imaging of large furnaces/fired heaters, I get a lot of questions about the accuracy of thermal imaging cameras when measuring tube metal temperatures (TMTs). The answer is not quite as simple as some would like.
