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. |

temperature sensor conduit for a heater/fire? |

temperature sensor conduit for a heater/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. |

Not a temperature sensor That is sort of mis-leading. True but mis-leading. |

Thermal sensor? |

Not a temperature sensor Thermal sensor? It does not measure temperature, or heat. But it is related. |

Then it should be light ? 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. |

This tool is proving to be ultra hard |

X-Ray ? |
Stargate (SA) Send message Joined: 4 Mar 10 Posts: 1854 Credit: 2,258,721 RAC: 0 |
infrared sensor? |
Gary Charpentier Send message Joined: 25 Dec 00 Posts: 30648 Credit: 53,134,872 RAC: 32 |
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. |
