EMISSIVITY

Emissivity is a measure of the ability of a surface to emit thermal energy by radiation. Different types of surfaces (metals, masonry, wood, etc.) emit thermal energy through radiation at different efficiencies. Accordingly, these materials have different emissivity coefficients which must be considered in order to make accurate measurements with an infrared thermometer.

Emissivity on the TI223 may be adjusted from 0.01 to 0.99 to enable accurate measurement of the temperature of most types of materials. Generally speaking, shiny bright surfaces such as chrome, white boards, etc. exhibit lower emissivity than flat black materials.

For guidance only, the chart on the next page may be used to estimate emissivity for many different types of materials. However, the emissivity of surfaces is dependent upon many parameters such as surface finish, temperature, shape of the object, etc.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This chart should be used for guidance only.

Material Emissivity
Asphalt 0.93
Red brick 0.93
Gray brick 0.75
Porcelain ceramic 0.92
Fired clay 0.91
Rough concrete 0.94
Cotton cloth 0.77
Smooth glass 0.92 - 0.94
Granite 0.45
Gravel 0.28
Smooth ice 0.97
Smooth white marble 0.56
Black paint	0.96
Hard rubber	0.94
Wood	0.80 - 0.90
Matte copper	0.22
Commercial sheet aluminum	0.09
Cold rolled steel 0.75 - 0.85
