The temperature measuring instrument has cross laser marking and switchable optics for far-field and close-focus measurement. The infrared thermometer is therefore ideally suited for non-contact measurement of surface temperatures, both at short and long distances.

The advantages of the testo 845 infrared temperature measuring instrument
The testo 845 infrared temperature measuring instrument enables you to measure surface temperatures reliably and quickly – thanks to a reference accuracy of ± 0.75°C and fast measuring technology with 100 ms scanning.
Far-field measurement means that surface temperatures can be measured very precisely at a great distance from the measurement object. At a distance of 1.2 m from the measurement object, the measuring spot diameter is only 16 mm. Bright cross-laser marking is used to indicate the real measuring spot.
For measurements a short distance from the measurement object, the close-focus optics provide a measuring spot diameter of only 1 mm at a distance of 70 mm. In the process, two laser points mark the measuring spot.
In order to switch from far-field to near-field (close-focus) measurements, simply move the slide switch on the infrared temperature measuring instrument to the appropriate position.
As an option, you can carry out additional measurements, such as determining the emission level, via attached temperature probes (the probe socket is located underneath the handle) for an even more accurate measurement result.
