FIG. 5
DISTANCE TO SPOT (FIG. 5)
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
12" (305 mm) away from the object it will measure 1" (25 mm). The
object that is being tested needs to be larger then 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).
