Temperature measurement
Modern measuring devices for every application
Hardly any other parameter is measured as frequently in measurement technology as temperature. However, reliable and objective results can only be obtained with a suitable measuring device for the respective application. Temperatures in systems and machines, for example, can only be measured accurately using a thermometer; manual checks would be too time-consuming and, above all, insufficiently precise.
Testo offers a wide range of thermometers that display values in degrees Celsius, Kelvin, or Fahrenheit. These instruments use highly sensitive sensors and provide digital readouts for fast, accurate measurement results.
The thermometers from Testo offer these advantages:
precise measurement and clear display of data
Display possible in different units (Celsius, Kelvin, Fahrenheit)
Highly sensitive sensors
Various temperature sensors
Different thermometer types for every application
Measuring devices for temperature measurement
Where do you want to measure temperature?
Temperature measuring device: measurement possible in all media
While in the private sector only the room temperature is usually monitored permanently or a weather station also displays the outside temperatures, other temperatures are measured and evaluated in the industrial, food technology or scientific sectors. Here it must be possible to measure temperatures in different media. This means that these must be determined in gaseous, solid and semi-solid or viscoplastic media. Immersion sensors are used for temperature measurement in liquid substances. They measure temperatures in neutral solutions such as water as well as in other media. If you want to be particularly economical, you can use temperature measuring strips that indicate the temperature change via a scale.
The infrared camera for temperature measurement is particularly useful in building technology or for the maintenance and repair of machines and systems. This displays different heat ranges and is also known as a thermal imaging camera. With its sensors, it makes use of the findings of thermography and shows even the smallest temperature differences.
The following areas also rely on efficient temperature measurement, the results of which can be displayed digitally and evaluated thanks to a smart app:
Checking food and compliance with the cold chain
Monitoring refrigerated transport
Temperature measurement on surfaces
Measurement of core currents in exhaust pipes and chimneys
Temperature measurement to check the heating function
Temperature measurement: data recording possible
Temperature measurement is only one part of working with the temperature parameter. It is important to store and evaluate the data collected and, if necessary, share it with other team members or maintenance engineers. This is where the temperature data loggers come into play, which have been designed precisely for this purpose. These devices are ideal for the long-term monitoring of temperatures, not only recording these, but also focusing on humidity data, depending on the data logger. Data loggers are used in the catering industry as well as in the food sector, in the pharmaceutical industry and in storage rooms in hospitals and pharmacies.
In short, modern data loggers such as Testo devices are in demand wherever temperature plays an important role and needs to be monitored over the long term.
Thermometers: Differences in the measuring devices
Temperature measurement can be carried out with various thermometers and sensors, the choice of which depends on the desired application. A surface temperature sensor is particularly suitable for measuring surface temperatures on various media. The penetration probe is used, for example, in the preparation of food or other semi-solid media and the associated need to monitor the core temperature. Infrared thermometers measure without contact and also at greater distances, so that machines or locations that are difficult to reach can still be measured accurately. Interchangeable probes allow the use of a thermometer for different media and temperature measurement in these.
Digital thermometer: Precise display of measured values
Digital thermometers prove to be extremely practical for temperature measurement in everyday use thanks to their large display. Such a temperature measuring device offers the following advantages, among others:
Large, easy-to-read display
Illuminated display for working at dusk and in the dark
Data hold function
State-of-the-art measuring devices
With Smart Probes, Testo offers temperature measurement at the most modern level. The temperature data is measured and saved using a smartphone thermometer. The values can be transferred to the app via Bluetooth, which can be used free of charge. The app is used to evaluate the temperature measurement and the data collected can be displayed in the form of tables or diagrams. This means that changes can be seen directly and immediate action can be taken if necessary. In addition to temperature measurement, the Smart App allows the collection of further data such as pressure or humidity. A total of eight measuring devices are available, whose measured data can be forwarded to the app.
Testo thus offers all heating, refrigeration and air conditioning technicians state-of-the-art working conditions and facilitates efficient working methods in every company in these sectors.
