1.  Does it  have an effect on test object temperatrue when cold wind or room temprerature wind blow through the sensor ?

2. what temperature range the TMP006 sensor stay in , it measure the temperature value is the most accurate?

3. When measure object temperature, which object  temperature range is most accurate?

    Hello Robert,

    1. Local temperature transients do have an impact on the performance of the TMP006. Please see the attachment below for more information.

    2728.TMP006_Accuracy_Ian_Williams_10312011.pdf

    2. The TMP006 is most accurate when the local (ambient) temperature is near 25°C.

    3. The TMP006 is most accurate when the target object temperature is the same or close to the local temperature.

    Best regards,
