Contactless temperature sensing is state of the art and essential part of countless applications in the field of process control and automation. This contribution presents the case of a nondestructive thickness measurement method for polymeric coatings on concrete ground. Two pyrometers and a low-cost infrared camera were taken into account. The particular measurement results were compared with those of a more sophisticated infrared camera. It was found that the low-cost infrared camera has a lower noise level than the pyrometers, even for a single pixel. The opportunity to average over a large number of pixels and to establish a bias correction enables a further noise reduction by almost factor of 10.
Furthermore, the temporal resolution of the infrared camera was investigated by means of a well-defined thermal oscillation. It could be demonstrated that the averaged time stamps are correct and the requirement of a Minimum framerate of 50 Hz is met. Finally, the temperature transient on a polymer coated concrete block during and after a 10 s heating period was recorded with a pyrometer and the infrared camera. This experiment confirmed the suitability of the camera for the intended measurement method.
