Summary of Practice4.1 The p

20、ractice consists of comparing the readout tempera-ture of an infrared thermometer to the radiance temperature ofa radiation source. The radiance temperature shall correspondto the spectral range of the infrared thermometer under test.4.2 The radiation source may be of two types. Ideally, thesource w

21、ill be a cavity source having an emissivity close tounity (1.00). However, because the field-of-view of someinfrared thermometers is larger than typical blackbody cavityapertures, a large-area flat-plate source may be used for thesecalibrations. In either case, the traceable measurement of theradian

22、ce temperature of the source shall be known, along withcalculated uncertainties.4.3 The radiance temperature of the source shall be trace-able to a national metrology institute such as the NationalInstitute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg,Maryland or the National Research Council

23、(NRC) in Ottawa,Ontario, Canada.5. Significance and Use5.1 This guide provides guidelines and basic test methodsfor the accuracy verification of infrared thermometers. Itincludes test set-up and calculation of uncertainties. It isintended to provide the user with a consistent method, whileremaining

24、flexible in the choice of calibration equipment. It isunderstood that the uncertainty obtained depends in large partupon the apparatus and instrumentation used. Therefore, sincethis guide is not prescriptive in approach, it provides detailedinstruction in uncertainty evaluation to accommodate thevar

25、iety of apparatus and instrumentation that may be em-ployed.5.2 This guide is intended primarily for calibrating handheldinfrared thermometers. However, the techniques described inthis guide may also be appropriate for calibrating other classesof radiation thermometers. It may also be of help to tho

26、secalibrating thermal imagers.5.3 This guide specifies the necessary elements of the reportof calibration for an infrared thermometer. The requiredelements are intended as a communication tool to help the enduser of these instruments make accurate measurements. Theelements also provide enough inform

27、ation, so that the results ofthe calibration can be reproduced in a separate laboratory.6. Sources of Uncertainty6.1 Uncertainties are present in all calibrations. Uncertain-ties are underestimated when their effects are underestimatedor omitted. The predominant sources of uncertainty are de-scribed

28、 in Section 10 and are listed in Table 1 and Table X1.1of Appendix X1.6.2 Typically, the most prevalent sources of uncertainties inthis method of calibration are: (1) emissivity estimation of thecalibration source, (2) size-of-source of the infrared thermom-eter, (3) temperature gradients on the rad

29、iation source, (4)improper alignment of the infrared thermometer with respect tothe radiation source, (5) calibration temperature of the radia-tion source, (6) ambient temperature and (7) reflected tempera-ture. The order of prevalence of these uncertainties may vary,depending on use of proper proce

30、dure and the type of thermalradiation source used. Depending on the temperature of theradiation source, the calibration method of the radiation source,the optical characteristics of the infrared thermometer and thedetector and filter characteristics of the infrared thermometer,the contribution of th

31、ese uncertainties may change significantlyin the overall uncertainty budget.7. Apparatus7.1 Thermal Radiation Source:7.1.1 There are two different classes of thermal radiationsources which can be used for infrared thermometer calibra-tions: a cavity source and a flat-plate source. Some sourcesmay be

32、 considered a hybrid of both categories. Each of thesesources has advantages and disadvantages. The cavity sourceprovides a source of radiation that has a more predictableemissivity. However, the flat-plate source can usually be madeless expensively, can be made with a diameter large enough toTABLE

35、stance to size ratios(D:S), and may geometrically more resemble the surfacemeasured by the infrared thermometer when in use in the field.7.1.2 Ideally, the size of the thermal radiation source shouldbe specified by the infrared thermometer manufacturer. Inmany cases, this information may not be avai

36、lable. In thesecases a field-of-view test should be completed as discussed inE1256. The portion of signal incident on the infrared thermom-eter that does not come from the source should be accountedfor in the uncertainty budget.7.1.3 Cavity Source:7.1.3.1 A cavity source can be constructed in severa

37、l shapesas shown in Fig. 1. In general, a high length-to-diameter ratio(L:D) or radius-to-diameter ratio (R:D) in the spherical casewill result in a smaller uncertainty. A smaller conical angle Fwill also result in a smaller uncertainty.7.1.3.2 The location of a reference or a control probe, orboth,

38、 and the thermal conductivity of the cavity walls areimportant considerations in cavity source construction. Ingeneral, a reference or control probe should be as close aspractical to the center of the area where the infrared thermom-eter will typically measure, typically the cavity bottom. If therei

39、s a separation between the location of the reference probe andthe cavity surface, cavity walls with a higher thermal conduc-tivity will result in a smaller uncertainty due to temperaturegradients in this region.7.1.3.3 The walls of the cavity source can be treated inseveral different ways. A painted

40、 or ceramic surface willgenerally result in higher emissivity than an oxidized metalsurface. By the same measure an oxidized metal surface willgenerally result in higher emissivity than a non-oxidized metalsurface. In some cases, it may be impossible to paint the cavitysource surface. This is especi

41、ally true at high temperatures.7.1.3.4 The effective emissivity of the cavity source shall becalculated to determine the radiance temperature of the cavity.Calculation of effective emissivity is beyond the scope of thisstandard. Determination of effective emissivity can be math-ematically calculated

42、 or modeled.7.1.4 Flat-Plate Source:7.1.4.1 A flat-plate source is a device that consists of apainted circular or rectangular plate. The emissivity is likely tobe less well defined than with a cavity source. This can bepartially overcome by performing a radiometric transfer (seeScheme II in 7.3.7) t

43、o the flat-plate source. However, theradiometric transfer should be carried out with an instrumentoperating over a similar spectral band as the infrared thermom-eter under test.7.1.4.2 A cavity source is the preferred radiometric sourcefor infrared thermometer calibrations. The cavity source hastwo

44、main advantages over a flat-plate source. First, the cavitysource has better defined emissivity and an emissivity muchcloser to unity due to its geometric shape. Second, along withFIG. 1 Cavity ShapesE2847 113the emissvity being closer to unity, the effects of reflectedtemperature are lessened. Temp

45、erature uniformity on the flat-plate source may be more of a concern as well. However, aflat-plate source has two possible advantages over a cavitysource. First, the temperature controlled flat-plate surface canbe much larger than a typical cavity source opening, allowingfor much smaller D:S ratios

46、(greater field-of-view). Second, thegeometry of the flat-plate source more likely resembles thesurfaces to be measured by the infrared thermometer under testthan a cavity source.7.2 Aperture:7.2.1 An additional aperture may not be needed for allcalibrations. An aperture is typically used to control

47、scatter. Ifused, the aperture should be temperature-controlled or reflec-tive. An aperture should be used if recommended by theinfrared thermometer manufacturer. If an aperture is used forcalibration, this information should be stated in the report ofcalibration. The information that shall be includ

48、ed is theaperture distance, the aperture size, and the measuring dis-tance.Apossible configuration for aperture use is shown in Fig.2.7.2.2 In Fig. 2,dapris the aperture distance. The measuringdistance is shown by dmeas.7.3 Transfer Standard:7.3.1 The thermal radiation source shall be calibrated wit

49、h atransfer standard traceable to a national metrological institutesuch as the National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST) or National Research Council (NRC). If a referencethermometer (radiometric or contact) is used during the cali-bration of the unit-under-test, this serves as the calibration ofthe radiation source. In this case, the reference thermometershall have a calibration traceable to a national metrologicalinstitute.7.3.2 This calibration of the thermal radiation source maytake place in the calibration laboratory, or it may be done by athird
