Digital Hand-Held Pyrometer
Take the guesswork out of heat control with instant digital temperature readings, perfect for precise kiln annealing and consistent lampworking results.
Item Name:
Digital Hand Held Pyrometer
SKU:
DT2-7
Description:
Digital Hand Held Pyrometer is a portable temperature measurement device designed for reading surface temperatures of glass and other materials during heating and glassworking. It features a digital display that shows temperature readings in real time, typically with a range suitable for monitoring glass work from room temperature up to high heat ranges used in lampworking, glass fusing, and kiln firing. The pyrometer uses infrared or contact-based sensing to measure temperature without requiring the probe to touch the glass directly, making it safe and non-invasive. This tool is essential for controlling kiln temperatures during annealing cycles, monitoring torch flame heat during lampworking, and ensuring glass reaches proper working temperatures for fusing and other heat-dependent techniques.
How it is used:
Point the pyrometer at the surface you wish to measure, ensuring a clear line of sight to the target area. Press the trigger or button to activate the reading, and the digital display will show the current temperature. For kiln work, take readings at multiple points inside the kiln to ensure even heating and proper annealing temperatures. For lampworking, use the pyrometer to verify that your glass has reached working heat before applying it to a bead or component. Record temperature readings during your work to establish consistent parameters for repeatable results, and use the data to refine your kiln schedules and torch techniques over time.
