BT-63 is a gun-type infrared thermometer with laser and backlight for easier targeting and operating. The good temperature range with real-time maximum reading makes the BT63 the ideal tool for various applications.
An automotive infrared thermometer is one of the most exciting and valuable applications of an infrared thermometer gun, such as the BT-62/63/64. Use the temperature gun to troubleshoot, diagnose and perform routine spot-checking of car system performance for brakes to radiators, HVAC system, and engine timing. Besides, it can also help with industry and domestic usage
Below is a quick summary of how you can use an infrared thermometer for automotive diagnostics:
- Measure coolant temperatures at the close end of the return line
- Test for blockages in a radiator
- Measure belt and pulley temperatures
- Diagnose cylinder misfires by scanning the exhaust manifold
- Test the HVAC system by measuring temperatures of inlets, outlets, supply lines, output vents
and condenser outlets, supply lines, output vents
- Detect excessive heat in brake components
- Evaluate the heat dispersal dynamics of the brake system
- Monitor tire temperature on long trips to avoid blowouts
