Textile Far-infrared Emissivity Tester


The Textile Far Infrared Radiation Temperature Rise Tester is a high-precision analytical instrument specifically engineered to evaluate the far-infrared thermal performance of functional textiles. By simulating infrared radiation exposure and monitoring the resulting thermal response, this tester allows you to determine the temperature rise efficiency and heat-retention capabilities of advanced materials. It integrates a standardized 150W radiation source with high-speed thermal sensors to provide you with objective, repeatable data on how a fabric interacts with infrared energy—a critical metric for verifying the therapeutic or "self-heating" claims of modern performance textiles.

Applications

Textile Far Infrared Radiation Temperature Rise Tester is used for various textiles including fibers, yarns, fabrics, nonwovens, and their products. It employs temperature rise testing to determine the far-infrared performance of textiles.
