Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Why does my IR thermometer show different readings on polished pipework?

A:This is due to Emissivity. Shiny surfaces (like polished stainless steel) have low emissivity and high reflectivity. Our NABL calibration includes advice on setting the correct emissivity value on your meter to ensure technically sound readings for your specific material.

Q: How does Mumbai’s saline air affect my IR gun?

A: Salt air is corrosive and can leave a fine residue on the lens, which acts as a barrier, causing the sensor to "under-report" temperatures. Regular NABL calibration at Vega includes lens inspection and recalibration to ensure the optical path remains clear.

Q: How often should I calibrate the IR guns used in my pharmaceutical cold chain?

A: Given the critical nature of medicinal safety, we recommend a 6-month calibration cycle. Environmental factors like lens dust and internal sensor drift can compromise accuracy over time, leading to audit non-conformities.

Q: Can Vega calibrate the high-temperature pyrometers used in our Mumbai-based industrial unit?
