GENERAL DESCRIPTION
HI 99551 and HI 99556 thermometers employ infrared technology to measure the surface temperature.
Infrared measurements are extremely practical with a fast response time, typically around 1 second.
Another main advantage is the non-intrusive nature of the measurement, which is particularly attractive in the food industry since it translates itself into substantial savings by leaving products intact, especially those sealed or pre-wrapped. This type of non-intrusive measurement is also useful when the surface temperature is high, for difficult-to-reach places or due to hygiene requirements.
Simply point to the product or the spot and hold down the measurement key. The measured value will be immediately displayed on the LCD.
If in addition to surface measurement, you must check the core temperature too, then HI 99556 is the ideal solution: simply attach the external probe to the meter and you will have a 2-in- 1 infrared-thermistor thermometer.
Different models are available, with different temperature ranges.
