3.Emissions factor: The physical quantity known as the emission factor describes to what extent the infrared heat radiation that is emitted from an object is determined by its own temperature. Accordingly, a value of 1 tells us that the infrared heat radiation from the object is based only on its own temperature. A value of less than 1 means that the radiation emitted from the object is not only determined by its own temperature but also by reflections from neighboring bodies or due to the transmission, i.e. the diathermancy, of the object. The emission factor thus has an effect on the result of the measurement. The Infrared Thermometer works with an emission factor of 0.95, i.e. the measuring unit assumes that the object being monitored has a factor of 0.95. If this is not the case, there will be inaccuracies in the measurement (see Section 2.6 “Measurement Inaccuracies”).
