Thermography, or thermal imaging, is a type of infrared imaging. Thermographic cameras detect radiation in the infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum (roughly 900–14,000 nanometers or 0.9–14 µm) and produce images of that radiation. Since infrared radiation is emitted by all objects based on their temperature, according to the black body radiation law, thermography makes it possible to "see" one's environment with or without visible illumination. The amount of radiation emitted by an object increases with temperature, therefore thermography allows one to see variations in temperature (hence the name). Non-contact thermometers have many uses. The most popular include: 1) Predictive and Preventative Industrial Maintenance: Check transformers, electrical panels, connectors, switchgear, rotating equipment and furnaces as examples. 2) Automotive: Diagnose cylinder heads and heating/cooling systems. 3) HVAC/R: Monitor air stratification, supply/return registers and furnace performance. 4) Food Service & Safety: Scan holding, serving and storage temperatures. 5) Process Control & Monitoring: Check process temperature of steel, glass, plastics, cement, paper, food and beverage.
