Milwaukee Infrared Temp-Guns Preview

Milwaukee Infrared Temp Gun 2278-20

Milwaukee will be releasing four Infrared Temp-Guns between the end of August and November. These compact temp-guns feature a premium LCD screen for clearest readings possible and fastest scanning in their categories.  Each new unit delivers stunning readability both indoors and outdoors. Also, these new infrared temperature meters offer a selection of distance-to-spot ratios between 10:1 and up to 30:1.


On the upper end of the distance-to-spot ratio, 30:1 is an excellent option for industrial applications where machinery has to be checked accurately. Allowing MRO pros to be farther away from running machines is a safety feature managers will love.

The 2278 model will be the go-to offering among Milwaukee’s current M12 users. The ability to switch out rechargeable lithium-ion batteries quickly without the cost of replacing 9V batteries is a huge bonus. The 2278 will be in the most popular 12:1 distance-to-spot ratio.

 
“Today, the majority of units in this category simply meet performance expectations such as distance-to-spot ratio and temperature range, and are not built to withstand the durability demands of the jobsite. We will take the expectations for this category to the next level, delivering premium features in the form of readability of the display, ease at which users can leverage built-in functionality, and a quality construction/rugged design that is fit for today’s jobsite.”
