Powered by a 9V alkaline or NiCd battery, the non-contact Raytek MiniTemp MT2 infrared thermometer
without laser sighting is small enough to fit in your pocket.
Lightweight Raytek MiniTemp MT2 infrared thermometers are perfect for facility maintenance (both
preventative and predictive), machinery inspection, equipment audits, electrical troubleshooting and a
range of additional applications and uses. Just aim the Raytek MiniTemp MT2 infrared thermometer,
pull the trigger, and read the current surface temperatures in less than a second. You can safely and
easily measure surface temperatures of hot, hazardous, or hard-to-reach objects without contact using
your Raytek MiniTemp MT2 infrared thermometer.
The Raytek MiniTemp MT2 infrared thermometer has a temperature range of 0 to 525°F (-18 to
275°C) and a response rate of 500 mSec for each measurement reading. The distance to spot is
8:1. The Raytek MiniTemp MT2 infrared thermometer has a preset emissivity of 0.95.
Optional nylon holster sold separately.

Infrared Temperature Measurement - Technology Explained
Infrared thermometers measure temperature from a distance by detecting the amount of
thermal electromagnetic radiation emitted from the object being measured. This allows users
to accurately measure surface temperatures in hazardous or hard-to-reach places, or other
situations in which non-contact temperature measurement is desirable. Infrared thermometer
technology is useful in a wide range of applications – including industrial, laboratory, food service,
fire fighting, hobby, and home use.
While the technology is relatively simple, the myriad of names given to these devices can be
confusing. "Laser Thermometers" makes reference to the laser that helps aim the thermometer.
"IR Sensors" and "IR Thermometers" make use of a common abbreviation for "infrared". "Non-Contact
Thermometers" is descriptive of the device's ability to measure temperature from a distance.
"Radiation Pyrometers" is a scientific/technical term for these devices.
