Measurement parameters
For accurate temperature measurements, it is important to use appropriate measure-
ment parameters:
•
Emissivity
: The emissivity determines how much of the radiation originates from the
object as opposed to being reflected by it.
•
Reflected temperature
: This parameter is used to compensate for the radiation from
the surroundings reflected by the object into the camera.
•
Relative humidity
: The relative humidity of the air between the camera and the object
of interest.
•
Atmospheric temperature
: The temperature of the air between the camera and the ob-
ject of interest.
•
Distance
: The distance between the camera and the object of interest.
Note
During normal operation there is typically no need to change the default meas-
urement parameters, see section 8.6.2
8.6.1
Setting measurement parameters
Emissivity
is the most important measurement parameter to set correctly. If the
Emissivity
is set to a low value, the
Reflected temperature
also becomes important. The parameters
Relative humidity
,
Atmospheric temperature
, and
Distance
are relevant for longer
distances.
To set the measurement parameters, do the following:
1. Select
Settings
>
Measurement parameters
.
2. Select the measurement parameter you want to change.
