    Pyrometers are non-contact devices that measure temperature by detecting electromagnetic radiation emitted by an object's surface. They work by focusing this thermal radiation through a lens onto a detector. The document discusses two main types of pyrometers: radiation pyrometers, which directly measure the thermal radiation, and optical pyrometers, which use the radiation to form an image of the object. Radiation pyrometers offer faster response times and are less affected by the environment but have non-linear scales, while optical pyrometers can measure high temperatures accurately but are more prone to human error and more expensive.

    INTRODUCTION :
    Pyrometer is derived from the Greek word
    pyro which means fire.
    Its a temperature measuring device but unlike
    RTDs and thermocouples its not in contact with
    surface.
    Pyrometry is the technique for measuring
    temperature without physical contact .
    It depends upon the relationship between the
    temperature on a hot body and then
    electromagnetic radiation emitted by the body.
    WORKING OF PYROMETER :-
    Operation of pyrometer is based on the
    measurement of radiant energy emitted by hot
    body.
    It consists of lens to focus radiant energy at
    some point.
    If distance of object from the lens is more,
    radiant energy will be lost in atmosphere instead
    of concentrating at fixed point and accuracy of
    measurement will be decreased, therefore it is
    desirable to have short distance of object from
    lens.

    Advantages
    Fast speed of
    response,
    less affected by
    corrosive atmosphere,
    it can measure the
    temp. higher than the
    thermocouple.
    It is portable,
    light in weight,
    Measure high temp.
    with accuracy,
    It is contactless
    measuring device.


    Disadvantages

    Non-linear scale,
    Emissivity of material
    affects the
    measurement.

    More chances of
    human error while
    adjusting the image,
    Device is very costly.
