1. SI-100 series sensors output an analog voltage that is directly proportional to the infrared radiation balance of the target (surface or object the sensor is pointed at) and detector, where the radiation balance between target and detector is related to the temperature difference between the two.

2. Typical applications of infrared radiometers include plant canopy temperature measurement for use in plant water status estimation, road surface temperature measurement for determination of icing conditions, and terrestrial surface (soil, vegetation, water, snow) temperature measurement in energy balance studies.

3. Infrared radiometers are sensors that measure infrared radiation, which is used to determine surface temperature without touching the surface (when using sensors that must be in contact with the surface, it can be difficult to maintain thermal equilibrium without altering surface temperature).

4. Apogee Instruments SI series infrared radiometers consist of a thermopile detector, germanium filter, precision thermistor (for detector reference temperature measurement), and signal processing circuitry mounted in an anodized aluminum housing, and a cable to connect the sensor to a measurement device.

5. Sensors must be carefully mounted in order to view the desired target and avoid including unwanted surfaces/objects in the field of view, thereby averaging unwanted temperatures with the target temperature.

6. Infrared radiometers are often called infrared thermometers because temperature is the desired quantity, even though the sensors detect radiation.

7. Terrestrial surfaces (e.g., soil, plant canopies, water, snow) emit radiation in the mid infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum (approximately 4-50 µm).

8. The radiation shield insulates the radiometer from rapid temperature changes and keeps the temperature of the radiometer closer to the target temperature.

9. Sensors are potted solid with no internal air space and are designed for continuous temperature measurement of terrestrial surfaces in indoor and outdoor environments.

10. One of the most important steps in using an infrared radiometer from Apogee instruments is determining the exact field of view of the sensor during installation.

11. General Information: All objects with a temperature above absolute zero emit electromagnetic radiation.
