ASTM E2758-15a(2021)

Standard Guide for Selection and Use of Wideband, Low Temperature Infrared Thermometers

1.1 This guide covers electronic instruments intended for measurement of temperature by detecting intensity of thermal radiation exchanged between the subject of measurement and the sensor. 1.2 The devices covered by this guide are referred to as IR thermometers. 1.3 The IR thermometers covered in this guide are instruments that are intended to measure temperatures below 1000 °C and measure a wide band of thermal radiation in the infrared region. 1.4 This guide covers best practice in using IR thermometers. It addresses concerns that will help the user make better measurements. It also provides graphical tables to help determine the accuracy of measurements. 1.5 Details on the design and construction of IR thermometers are not covered in this guide. 1.6 This guide does not cover medium- and high-temperature IR thermometry (above 1000°C). It does not address the use of narrowband IR thermometers. 1.7 The values of quantities stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values of quantities in parentheses are not in SI and are optional. 1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.9 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

ISO 7196:1995

Acoustics - Frequency-weighting characteristic for infrasound measurements

Specifies a frequency-weighting characteristic, designated G, for the determination of weighted sound pressure levels of sound or noise whose spectrum lies partly or wholly within the frequency band from 1 Hz to 20 Hz.

ANSI/ASA S1.14-1998 (R2018)

Recommendations for Specifying and Testing the Susceptibility of Acoustical Instruments to Radiated Radio-Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 25 MHz to 1GHz

This Standard provides recommendations for specifying and testing the susceptibility of acoustical instruments to radiated radio-frequency electromagnetic fields. It does not contain recommendations regarding the susceptibility of an instrument to conducted electromagnetic fields, or recommendations to limit the emission of electromagnetic fields from instruments. It covers two ranges of radio frequencies for the carrier signal: 25 MHz to 500 MHz, and an extended range from 25 MHz to 1 GHz.

ISO 4224:2000

Ambient air - Determination of carbon monoxide - Non-dispersive infrared spectrometric method

This International Standard defines the requirements for equipment, anchorage, supports and accessories for cableway systems for use in stream gauging. Systems which are operated either entirely from the river bank or from a suspended personnel carriage (also called a “cable car”) are discussed. This International Standard does not concern methods for making a discharge measurement which are described in ISO 748.
