<p>An electronic infrared thermometer comprising a housing (12) forming an interior chamber (13), a pyroelectric sensor (18) mounted within the chamber for sensing temperature change and generating an indicative electrical signal, means (14) for directing infrared radiation (IR) from the object (11) to be measured to the pyroelectric sensor (18), a shutter assembly (16) for controlling the passing of infrared radiation (IR) to the pyroelectric sensor (18), an ambient temperature sensor (20) for sensing ambient temperature within the interior chamber (13) and generating an electrical signal indicative thereof, an electrical circuit (22) for processing the electrical signals to calculate the temperature of the object (11) to be measured, and an indicator (78) for indicating the calculated temperature. The process for measuring the temperature of an object (11) is also disclosed comprising shielding the pyroelectric sensor (18) from infrared radiation from exterior to the thermometer housing (12), selectively exposing the pyroelectric sensor (18) to infrared radiation (IR) substantially solely from the object (11) to be measured to generate a first electrical signal related to the absolute temperature of the object (11) to be measured, sensing the ambient temperature of the pyroelectric sensor (18) and generating a second electrical signal proportional thereto, and electrically processing the first and second electrical signals to calculate the temperature of the object (11) to be measured. <IMAGE></p> |
