Causes of Global Warming Also Produce Errors in Agricultural Temperature Measurements with Infrared Termometers



/P>

The AGRI-THERM II infrared thermometers are capable of taking surface temperature measurements in a highly dynamic environment such as having the thermometer taken from an air conditioned truck into the heat of the desert without giving them time for equilibration before taking the measurements. Under these environmental conditions, they respond with accuracy of 0.5 degrees C or 1.0 degree F.

Everest also markets an infrared temperature sensor, the Model 4000.4ZL (http://www.everestinterscience.com/products/model4000/4000.4ZL.htm), infrared temperature sensors that can be mounted in the field and run continuously. And, the Model 6000 (http://www.everestinterscience.com/products/model6000/6000.1ZL.htm) miniature infrared temperature sensors can be used for the same purpose but also include unique Vario-Zooom (http://www.everestinterscience.com/capabilities/ttl.htm)and TTL/SLR (http://www.everestinterscience.com/products/app/ttl.htm) features. The Vario-Zooom provides a field-focusable infrared temperature sensor with Intra-Optical Light Sighting provided by the TTL/SLR, Through-The-Lens/Single Lens Reflex system (U. S. Patent Nos. 7,355,178 and 4,477,814).
