IEC 62942-1 TS : First international technical specification on the technical data for radiation thermometers

The Technical Specification IEC 62492-1 TS: Industrial process control devices - Radiation thermometers - Part 1: Technical data for radiation thermometers will define the technical data, i.e. metrological data, to be given in data sheets and operating instructions for radiation thermometers with one wavelength range and one measurement field. It has been developed within the working group IEC SC 65B WG5 "Temperature Sensors". The content and structure of the IEC 62492-1 TS is briefly explained and an outlook on further work on radiation thermometry planned within the IEC SC 65B WG5 is given.
