Standards. According to ASTM E2847, “Standard Practice for Calibration and Accuracy Verification of Wideband Infrared Thermometers”, The following equipment is a must for any infrared thermometer calibration: • Thermal radiation source (Standard Radiation). A calibrated temperature source that provides radiation. • Transfer standard (Standard for the Thermal Radiation). It is used to calibrate the thermal radiation source. • Ambient temperature thermometer (Standard Ambient Temperature). It is used to monitor the temperature inside the laboratory. This is especially important because for some infrared thermometers, ambient temperature plays a big role in uncertainty. • Distance measuring device (Standard Distance). It is used to determine the distance from the radiation source to the infrared thermometer. Fixture. It is a tripod what holds the infrared thermometer.
