• An infrared radiometer (sensor) provides a remote temperature measurement of an object without touching it. The sensor measures the amount of infrared energy emitted from an object and converts this to a digital temperature readout. With a point radiometer you have no image to analyze what or where the problem is precisely located. Also a thermometer / radiometer averages a spot size depending on the range from the object(s).
