Contact vs. Non-Contact Measurements
In using any infrared temperature device, closer is always better, as the
field of view increases proportionately to the distance from the surface.
Accordingly, for maximum accuracy the probe must contact the sur-
face at the point of interest. It does not need to be tightly pressed to the
surface; a gentle touch is all that is required.
When contact with the surface is not an option, position the probe within
1/2 inch from the surface of interest. If using a non-contact protocol,
the relative temperature indication of the instrument will be accurate.
