Introduction to Environmental Conditions for Infrared Thermometers and Humidity Sensors
The environmental conditions in which the thermometer is located have a significant impact on the measurement results and should be considered and appropriately addressed, otherwise it may affect the temperature measurement accuracy and even cause damage. When the ambient temperature is high and there is dust, smoke, and steam present, accessories such as protective covers, water cooling, air cooling systems, and air blowers provided by the manufacturer can be selected. These attachments can effectively address environmental impacts and protect the thermometer, achieving accurate temperature measurement. When determining attachments, standardized services should be requested as much as possible to reduce installation costs. When the measurement energy signal is reduced by smoke, dust or other particles under noise, electromagnetic field, vibration or difficult to access environmental conditions, or other harsh conditions, the fiber optic dual color thermometer is the best choice. A colorimetric thermometer is the best choice. When exposed to noise, electromagnetic fields, vibrations, and difficult to access environmental conditions, or other harsh conditions, it is advisable to choose a light colorimetric thermometer.
In sealed or hazardous material applications (such as containers or vacuum boxes), thermometers observe through windows. The material must have sufficient strength and be able to pass through the working wavelength range of the thermometer used. It is also necessary to determine whether the operator also needs to observe through the window, so it is necessary to choose a suitable installation position and window material to avoid mutual influence. In low-temperature measurement applications, Ge or Si materials are usually used as windows that are opaque to visible light, and the human eye cannot observe the target through the window. If the operator needs to pass through a window target, optical materials that transmit both infrared radiation and visible light should be used. For example, optical materials that transmit both infrared radiation and visible light, such as ZnSe or BaF2, should be used as window materials.

When there are flammable gases in the working environment of the thermometer, an intrinsic infrared thermometer can be used to measure and monitor in a certain concentration of flammable gas environment.
In harsh and complex environmental conditions, a system with separate temperature sensors and displays can be chosen for easy installation and configuration. The signal output form that matches the current control equipment can be selected.
