ASTM Subcommittee E20.02 on Radiation Thermometry

ASTM Subcommittee E20.02 on Radiation Thermometry is a subcommittee of the , a committee of ASTM International. The subcommittee is responsible for standards relating to radiation or infrared (IR) temperature measurement. E20.02's standards are published along with the rest of the E20's standards in the Annual Book of ASTM Standards, Volume 14.03.

History[]

The E20.02 was started shortly after the E20 Committee was established in 1962.^{[citation needed]}
