Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Thermapen® IR used for?

The Thermapen® IR combines a non-contact infrared thermometer and penetration probe in one instrument, allowing you to measure both surface and internal temperatures. It is ideal for commercial kitchens, catering and food production where quick, reliable temperature checks are essential.



What is the difference between infrared and probe temperature measurement?

The infrared sensor measures the surface temperature of an object without making contact, while the penetration probe measures the internal temperature of food. Infrared is useful for quick surface checks, but a penetration probe should be used when an internal food temperature is required for food safety.

Is the Thermapen® IR suitable for HACCP and food safety checks?

Yes. The Thermapen® IR is suitable for professional temperature monitoring as part of HACCP and food safety procedures. The infrared function enables quick surface temperature checks, while the penetration probe can be used to check the internal temperature of cooked, chilled and reheated foods.

How accurate is the Thermapen® IR?

The penetration probe is accurate to ±0.4 °C between -49.9 and 199.9 °C, and ±1 °C outside this range. The infrared sensor is accurate to ±1 °C between 0 and 100 °C, and ±2 °C or ±2% of the reading outside this range, whichever is greater.

How quickly does the Thermapen® IR measure temperature?

The penetration probe provides internal temperature readings in just three seconds, making it suitable for quick, routine temperature checks in busy commercial food environments. The infrared function provides rapid, non-contact surface temperature measurements.

How close should the Thermapen® IR be to the surface being measured?

The Thermapen® IR has a 5:1 distance-to-target ratio, meaning the area being measured becomes larger as you move further away from the target. For the most accurate infrared readings, position the thermometer as close to the surface as practical.

What is emissivity on the Thermapen® IR?

Different surfaces can give different infrared readings depending on their material and finish. The emissivity setting helps the Thermapen® IR account for these differences to improve measurement accuracy. It is set to 0.95 by default and can be adjusted between 0.1 and 1.0 for different surfaces.

Does the Thermapen® IR come with a calibration certificate?

Yes. The Thermapen® IR is supplied with a free traceable calibration certificate, providing documented confirmation of its accuracy. Additional calibration options are available for businesses with specific quality or compliance requirements.

This is a great thermapen, i love the infrared part of it. this is really handy for surface temps. Its a little bigger than i imagined it to be but its not overly bulky. The only thing that lets it down is the display doesn't have a light

Having to trade water resistence

Having to trade water resistence in exchange for an infrared sensor (compared to the Classic model) is a bit of a bummer, but having both a probe thermometer and infrared thermometer built into the same unit is very nice to have. Both thermometers work well too.

I just find the location of the buttons awkward when using the infrared thermometer. Perhaps it should be on the opposite end of the thermometer body?

Like the screen rotates to best viewing angle but could benefit from being back lit early days of use but seems well built and robust IR would be better with a longer range capability

Very well packaged and fast

Very well packaged and fast shipping. Also I liked the company’s giving info of every step. The item is as described. I bought it because it’s infrared and probe in one. Especially when tempering chocolate I use at times infrared it makes it easier and less messy. So it’s comfortable to use. Though I’d prefer a more highlighted screen

Excellent unit and customer service,

Excellent unit and customer service, too. Just got what I expected - added convenience of having instant and IR thermometer. I have DOT, too. It was quick enough also for instant reading, though I did not like the hassle with the wire then. Now I can very comfortably do both grill and meat internal temperatures measurements when doing both slow and sear. Plus having same unit for IR for pizza stone or frying pan is really cool and useful - no hassle and easy to do. Have used it also for other surface measurements around the house :)
