Milwaukee Infrared Temprature Gun (4933451906)

Description

Genuine Milwaukee · Part no. 4933451906

A Milwaukee infrared temperature gun (model 2267-40) reading from -30°C to 400°C without touching the part. Point and read: it is a quick way to compare the temperature of a radiator top and bottom hose, check each brake disc after a drive for a sticking caliper, or compare exhaust manifold runners to spot a cylinder that isn't firing.

Good to know

• How close do I need to be? With a 10:1 ratio the spot measured grows with distance, about 1 unit wide for every 10 away, so get close to a small target such as a hose or sensor housing so the reading isn't averaged with the parts around it.
• Why does bare metal read low? Infrared thermometers read surface temperature only, and shiny bare metal reads low because it reflects rather than emits heat; aim at a painted, dirty or matt part of the surface for a truer figure.
• Can it check my air-con vent temperature? It reads surfaces, not air, so aim it at the vent louvres or a piece of card held in the airflow rather than into the open vent.

Which one?

For lighting while you test under the bonnet, the USB rechargeable stick light 550 lumens (4933478869); for checking electrical circuits, the Auto Voltage Continuity Tester (4933447776).
