Temperature Readings

Being proactive can help you avoid major problems, including those that may occur in your engine compartment.

May 1, 2004

Being proactive can help you avoid major problems, including those that may occur in your engine compartment. Telatemp's pistol-grip IR (Infrared) Thermometer gives an early warning of potential equipment failures by detecting above-normal operating temperatures. Its built-in laser pointer allows you to pinpoint specific locations on machinery. Basic accuracy is +/- 2 percent of reading over a range of zero degrees to 600 degrees Fahrenheit or +/- 4 degrees Fahrenheit, whichever happens to be greater. Prices start at $89.
