8. Temperature measurement parameters

Emissivity: The ratio of the measured object to the black body with the same temperature, which is an essential indicator to measure the radiant energy of the object. Its value ranges from 0.01 to 1.00.

Ambient Temperature: The ambient temperature at which the thermal camera and the measured object are located.

Measurement Distance: The distance between the thermal camera and the measured object.

Relative Humidity: The percentage of water vapor content in the air during the transmission of radiant energy from the measured object.

Note:

1. The accurate setting of the above parameters has varying degrees of influence on the final temperature measurement results.
2. Recommended Values: In case of uncertainty regarding these parameter values, the following are recommended: Emissivity: 0.95, Ambient Temp.: 25°C, Relative Humidity: 55%RH, Distance: 0.6m
3. Accuracy: ±2°C/±2%(whichever is greater, -10℃~400℃, Room temperature: 25°C) recommended
