Optris developed a new portable infrared thermometer: the optrisŪ MiniSightPlus. This lightweight and easy-to-use thermometer takes temperatures between -32 and 530 °C.

With only 150 g of weight the instrument combines latest industry design with outstanding technical features. The angled shape guarantees a simultaneous view of measuring object and display. A rugged casing, an easy handling and the attractive appearance make this thermometer a suitable instrument for both professional users in industrial applications and amateurs in everyday life.

A combination of high-class precision glass optics with latest infrared technology provides the user with a new performance quality, which is unprecedented in this price segment. The keys allow an easy operation: The optrisŪ MiniSightPlus is activated by simply pressing the trigger - the laser helps to aim at the target and the temperature is shown in the backlit display with high accuracy.

The outstanding optical features support a distance-to-spotsize-ratio of 20:1. Thus the
optrisŪ MiniSightPlus enables the user to measure objects as small as 13 mm in any distance less than 140 mm.
Further features like a precise adjustable emissivity even after the measurement was taken,
hold-function and offset adjustability allow an optimal operation in manifold applications. A time constant of 0.3 seconds supports a fast temperature scanning. The user is able to quickly detect hot or cold spots by reading the minimum and maximum temperature results and setting a high and low alarm value.

Modern design and innovative technology combined with an attractive price make the
optrisŪ MiniSightPlus an ideal instrument and tool for fast temperature measurement.
