A micro-portable heat radiation detector carried on fire-fighters is described in this paper. Summing up some techniques such as thermopile, precise cold-junction compensation and measuring circuit, it could measure and display heat radiation intensity and temperature in the fire field where man is situating. It will send out a warning signal according to dangerous threshold that man can take emergency measures to protect himself and escape being hurt. It provides a security protect instrument for fire-fighters.
