If it is like one of the odd dozens I work around at work. It is a proximity sensor.

Lets see if I get all the no's listed
Not smoke, carbon monoxide, proximity, trump
Not for a vehicle.
In a premises, because what it goes in is inside

Now for the getting much warmer, yes fire.

Not conduit. It just has armor cable for the wires.

Can't say for sure because I didn't see it installed. Heat/temperature sensor for exhaust air.
Had one installed for a gas fired dryer at work. The armor cable was all I could see of it.

That is sort of mis-leading. True but mis-leading.

It does not measure temperature, or heat. But it is related.

If you mean light your eyeball would see, no. But you are on the right track.

So it is used in conjunction with a handheld device. Something in the IR spectrum.

Not IR, not X-ray, not hand held. It is mounted in something.
Something between Visible and X-Ray (hint)
Carlos obviously knows and betreger too
Clue review, Grant asked fire, answer yes.

Now you all need to ask what's it is part of or what is its function because you have gotten bogged down in how it works and not what it does. (Hint you could say it is safety related)

I said this one would be hard.
