definition | A rugged temperature sensor designed to measure water surface temperature in harsh environments such as oil platforms. It is a non-contact system that measures infra-red radiation with a second senor - the Sky Spy - that provides input for sky radiation correction. It measures temperatures in the range -10-70C with an accuracy of 0.3C below 30C and 0.5C above 30C. The standard field of view is 10 degrees with 5 and 2 degrees available as options. The sensor is encased in a solid block of plastic hermetically sealed into a titanium case to provide waterproofing and resistance to salt spray. | ||||||
