Infrared Thermometer for Food

SK-8920

JAN code : 4974425826490

Calibration : Available

JCSS Accredited Calibration : Not available

Illustrations of food on the device make you choose appropriate emissivity easily. Not only that but also with a function to hold a measured value for a while without touching keys, SK-8920 is no doubt an ideal thermometer for food industry. Calibration traceability certificate service is available.

Feature

One of the best advantages of a contactless infrared thermometer is its quick response. With SK-8920 you can easily and instantly measure surface temperature in one hand.

Applicable for a wide range of food-related temperature from –40 in a freezer to 250°C on a frying pan. Using a single-point laser marker helps you identify the object at a glance.

D:S = 10:1 (D is distance to the object, S is a diameter of a spot circle)

Three different emissivity described with illustration on the body, 0.85, 0.92, and 0.95 are available.

Certified for PSC, a standard based on Japan's Consumer Product Safety Act, as a class II portable laser device.

Turns off the power automatically if the trigger is not in use for 6 seconds, to prevent from running out the battery even when you forget to turn it off. Press the trigger again to power on.

Automatic hold function keeps the measured value on the LCD for 6 seconds.

Traceable calibration available

Description

Caution! This device is for industrial use, not for clinical use.

What is the distance-to-spot ratio?

A distance-to-spot ratio, which is the ratio of the Distance between the object and the thermometer to the size of the Spot, is preset at D:S = 10:1 for SK-8920. For example, if the distance is 500 mm, a spot circle of diameter 50 mm can be measured. Make sure that the object is larger than the circle.

The spot circle is defined as an area to receive 90% of the emitted energy from the object.

Warning: Do not look into the laser marker source or point it on eyes as it may damage eyes.

SK-8920 conforms to the Class II in the Standard for Safe Use of Laser Products (JIS C6802) which is defined as follows: A visible light (wavelength between 400 and 700 nm) with an output level less than 1 mW that a human's protective response can resist.

PSC mark is labeled on the device to prove its quality based on Japan's Consumer Product Safety Act.
