Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer 50:1 DS Ratio
The Sentry ST689 is a non-contact infrared thermometer built for high-performance temperature measurement. It offers a 50:1 distance-to-spot ratio for accurate long-distance readings across a range of -50 to 1000°C. The rugged, compact design suits electricians and technicians needing reliable data in demanding environments.
Suits long-range industrial checks.
This tool suits professionals measuring equipment, electrical panels, or HVAC systems from a safe distance where a 50:1 spot size is required. It is not for applications exceeding 1000°C such as certain foundry or advanced metalworking tasks needing a wider range. Buyers needing contact probes or data logging features should consider other instruments.
50:1 distance-to-spot ratio decides fit
The 50:1 distance-to-spot ratio is the critical specification determining if this model matches the job. It allows measuring a small target area from fifty times the distance, essential for inaccessible or hazardous locations. If the working distance requires a tighter 30:1 ratio or a broader field of view, a different series model would be appropriate.

Questions about this item
How do I set the 50:1 distance-to-spot ratio on the ST689 before taking a reading?
Aim the sensor at the target so the measured spot matches the 50:1 ratio; the laser pointer marks the centre while the optics define the exact spot size at that distance.
What maintenance does the ST689 need over time?
Keep the lens clean with a soft cloth and replace the battery when the low-power indicator appears; the unit carries a three-year parts and one-year labour guarantee.
At what temperature does the ST689 stop measuring?
The upper limit is 1000 °C (1832 °F); readings above this are outside the specified range.
