Pyrometer FIRT 550-Pocket

In our workshop, this time we will test an unusual instrument, the pyrometer of the German brand geo-FENNEL. This is a laser measuring device for non-contact temperature detection. It is based on the analysis of thermal radiation emitted by the tested object.

FIRT 550-pocket it is small and light - its dimensions are 146x104x43 mm and its weight is 0,178 kg. Its designers gave it an ergonomic shape and equipped it with a readable backlit screen on which we can read the temperature. Measurement range from -50°С to +550°С, its speed is less than one second, resolution is 0,1°С. The accuracy of the results was defined as ± 1%. Additionally, there is a function of freezing the measurement result. A feature of the described model is a double laser beam indicating the exact diameter of the measured field.

However, the real advantage of a pyrometer is that it makes it easy to take measurements in places and conditions where conventional thermometers would not be able to work. The device for non-contact temperature measurement with a laser sight can be used even in the absence of a controlled object. Measurements can be made on objects that are, for example, rotating or moving rapidly, very hot and difficult to access, or high voltage. The pyrometer is used, among other things, by the fire department to measure temperature when it is impossible to get close to a heat source. With it, we can measure the change in temperature of reacting chemicals. As part of our test, we can, for example, go to the garage to take more complex measurements. There, a laser thermometer will answer questions of concern, such as how hot spark plugs or exhaust manifolds are. Or maybe in our car the disks or bearings are terribly hot? We can easily measure the temperature at the inlet and outlet of the cooler. Do you know at what temperature the thermostat actually opens? As you can see, this thermometer has answers to many questions about automotive heat engines.

FIRT 550-Pocket will also find application in many professional industries, incl. in the food, foundry and electrical industries, as well as in the installation of heating and air conditioning systems. It will be indispensable when carrying out fire fighting and during the installation of insulation (it makes it easy to find heat losses). Indispensable in drying rooms. Even veterinarians use a pyrometer to monitor temperatures when animals are under anesthesia. The FIRT 550-Pocket manufacturer gives a one-year warranty for the correct operation of the pyrometer. The device fits easily in your pocket and can always be at hand. We recommend this interesting and useful device.
