Introduction

The Fluke 562/563 Infrared Thermometers (the Product) are for

non-contact temperature measurement. The Product determines

the surface temperature of an object by measuring the amount

of infrared energy radiated by the object surface. The Product

also uses a K-type thermocouple for contact temperature

measurement.
