Measurement device

Schaeffler (UK) has launched a low cost, easy-to-use non-contact (infrared) temperature measurement device that measures the surface temperature of components in a wide variety of applications.

TempCheck PRO is a handheld IR temperature measurement device that offers engineers a low cost alternative to thermal imaging cameras. The device requires little training as the user simply aims the device at the target object and presses a button. The temperature is then displayed on a coloured LCD.

The TempCheck PRO can be used in, for example, the preventive maintenance of rotating machinery and components and for locating hotspots on bearings, gearboxes, motors, valves, HVAC systems, electrical connectors, fuses, electrical wiring and control cabinets. The device is supplied as standard with a surface sensor for use where contact measurement is preferred, and an immersion sensor for measuring the temperature of fluids. An integrated data logger can store up to 20 recorded values.
