The infrared thermometer PCE-779N can be used for quick temperature measurements. This can be done in two different ways: either without contact or by means of a thermocouple. The infrared thermometer is suitable for nearly all surfaces. Since the infrared thermometer allows non-contacting measurement, even high temperatures can be measured from a safe distance. By means of the integrated dual laser of the infrared thermometer PCE-779N, the user can target the measuring spot very precisely.
The infrared thermometer has a variety of functions, including the MAX and MIN functions as well as the average and the difference function, which makes the infrared thermometer useful for many applications, including contacting, but also non-contacting measurements. The infrared thermometer is typically used for e. g. food monitoring, different hygiene-related controls, road construction, switch cabinet and production monitoring as well as for measuring motor temperatures.
