Fluke 63 [FLUKE-63] Infrared Thermometer -25° to 999°F (-32° to 535°C)

The non-contact Fluke 63 infrared thermometer is the ideal professional diagnostic tool for quick and accurate temperature measurements. The handheld Fluke 63 infrared thermometer enables professionals to research heating and ventilation problems, monitor the status of electrical motors and electrical panels, and diagnose car malfunctions with ease.

Infrared Temperature Measurement - Technology Explained:
Infrared thermometers measure temperature from a distance by detecting the amount of thermal electromagnetic radiation emitted from the object being measured. This allows users to accurately measure surface temperatures in hazardous or hard-to-reach places, or other situations in which non-contact temperature measurement is desirable. Infrared thermometer technology is useful in a wide range of applications – including industrial, laboratory, food service, fire fighting, hobby, and home use.

The portable Fluke 63 infrared thermometers make troubleshooting quick and easy. The single dot laser sighting system guides measurements to the right target and in less than a second, indicating the approximate center of the measurement area. The Fluke 63 infrared thermometer has a temperature range of -25 to 999°F (-32 to 535°C) and appears on its large temperature display, which provides current and MAX surface temperatures. In addition, the Fluke 63 infrared thermometer has a locking trigger and tripod mount capability, which allow for continuous temperature monitoring.

With a 12:1 distance to spot (D:S) ratio, use the Fluke 63 infrared thermometer within six feet of the intended target. At greater distances, the measured area will be larger (approximately the distance divided by 12).

While the technology is relatively simple, the myriad of names given to these devices can be confusing. "Laser Thermometers" makes reference to the laser that helps aim the thermometer. "IR Sensors" and "IR Thermometers" make use of a common abbreviation for "infrared". "Non-Contact Thermometers" is descriptive of the device's ability to measure temperature from a distance. "Radiation Pyrometers" is a scientific/technical term for these devices.
