Chapter 1 Summary――――――――――――――――――――――――
Chapter 1Summary
1.1 Product Summary1. Theory of Measurement
Every object emits infrared energy in accordancewith its temperature. By measuring the amount ofthis radiant energy, it is possible to determine thetemperature of the emitting object.
2. About infraredInfrared radiation is a form of light (electromagneticradiation), and has the property that it passes easilythrough air, while it is easily absorbed by solidmatter.With 3460-50 2D THERMO HiTESTER, accuratemeasurement is possible, irrespective of the airtemperature or the measurement distance.
3. Emission Thermometer StructureInfrared radiation which has been emitted from theobject is focused upon an infrared radiation sensor,via an optical system which includes a lens which istransparent to infrared radiation, an 8µm cutonfilter, etc..
The output signal from the infrared radiation sensoris input to an electronic circuit along with theoutput signal from a standard temperature sensor.

5.3.2 Data Timing
Temperature measurement data (133 bytes) istransmitted automatically at 200 ms intervals.Transmission of temperature measurement data takesapproximately 40 ms.
Measurement data is sent repeatedly, so the headerdata must first be detected before receiving thefollowing 133 bytes to process the data. The headerdata cannot be detected if it is not distinct from thetemperature measurement data. Processing istherefore required to cope with this situation, suchas clearing the receipt buffer if no data is receivedwithin a preset time interval.

7.4 Questions and Answers aboutMeasurement
Q: Why can't I measure the temperature on the otherside of a glass pane?
A: Normal glass absorbs infrared radiation of thewavelength (8 to 16 µm) which this device uses fortemperature measurement. Therefore this devicecannot measure the temperature of an object on theother side of a glass sheet, but instead measures thetemperature of the glass sheet itself.
Q: Light is shining on an object. Why can't I measureits temperature accurately?
A: Since fluorescent light includes almost no infraredradiation, it has almost no effect upon normaltemperature measurement. However sunlight andincandescent lights emit radiation which includessubstantial amounts of the infrared radiation used bythis device for temperature measurement, andaccordingly may produce significant measurementdiscrepancies.
54―――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Chapter 7 Maintenance and Service――――――――――――――――――――――――
Q: Why can't I measure the temperature of a gas,vapor, or flame?
A: Since gases, vapors, and flames are transparent toinfrared radiation, their temperatures cannot bemeasured in this way.
Q: Why can't I measure temperature through rain orfog?
A: Since rain and fog reflect and absorb infraredradiation, accurate measurement through them isimpossible.
Q: Doesn't the measurement distance affect theresulting measured value for temperature?
A: Air hardly absorbs at all infrared radiation of thewavelengths (8 to 16 µm) used by this device fortemperature measurement. Therefore accuratetemperature measurement is possible, irrespective ofthe measurement distance.
