1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the infrared temperature thermocouple meter from us. Please take a few
minutes to browse through this user manual before you begin to operate the meter to ensure that
you are fully familiarized with how best to operate the meter as accurately and safely as possible.
This meter combines two precision thermometers in one unit: a noncontact infrared thermometers
and a thermocouple thermometer. This meter can match standard type K sensor.
WARNING!
Do ot poi t laser directly At eye or reflective surface.
1.1.Precautio s safety measures
To get the best service from this meter, please read this user’s manual carefully and observe the
detailed safety precautions strictly.
1.1.1. Duri g use
. After abrupt ambient temperature changes, allow instrument temperature to stabilize for
30 minutes before using for measurement.
2. Do not expose thermometer to excessive ambient temperatures.
3. Keep the thermometer clean.
4. The center spacing of the standard small thermocouple jacks is 7.9mm(between the two prongs)
5. When the battery voltage is under proper operation requirement, the symbol will show on
the LCD and the battery need to be replaced with new.
6. Do not use solvents to clean the meter.
1.1.2. Mai tai i g the product
•Do not measure at a high temperature, high humidity places.
•When not using the instrument for a long time, please remove the battery and avoid storing in
high temperature and high humidity.

2. Press the LASER key under the infrared state. The meter will enter the measurement state and
lunched a beam of red laser. Point the laser to the measured object and press the SCAN/H key to
achieved the continuous temperature measurement.
3. Press the SCAN/H key under the thermocouple state and data will be held. Press the SCAN/H key
again to return the measurement state.
*If you still need more operations, plaese see the desription of keys instruction.
5. KEYS INSTRUCTION
. TYPE/ON/OFF key
ON/OFF: Press the key to turn the power ON and press the key once more > 2 sec. To turn the
power OFF.
TYPE: Press the key to select the mode of infrared or thermocouple.
2. key
Control the back Ligot on or off.
3. UNIT key
Press the key to select alternate the two temperature units of °C and °F.
4. MODE key
Press the key to select the mode of AVG, MAX or MIN.
5. LASER key
Control the laser on or off in the infrared state.
6. SCAN/H key
In the infrared state, press the key to measure the temperature. In the thermocouple state.
Press the key a icon will display on the LCD and the readout held in. Press the key once more
to cancel the hold function.
7. Auto power of setti g
When the meter is powered on, it is under auto power off mode. The meter will power itself off
after 25 seconds (infrared) or 20 minutes ( thermocouple) if no key operation.
Cancelled auto power off function: press the LASER key when power on unit the LCD display all
icons and the back light is on.

5. EMISSIVITY AND FIELD OF VIEW
Emissivity: Emissivity is a term used to describe the energy emitting characteristics of a material.
The higher the emissivity value a material has, the more infrared energy it will emit at a particular
temperature. Most organic materials range in emissivity between 0.85 and 0.98. This thermometer
has a fixed (non-adjustable) emissivity of 0.95 . Measuring objects with an emissivity of less then
0.95 will result in a lower than actual temperature reading on the display. Be aware of this
characteristic when measuring low emissivity objects(e.g. shiny, reflective metal objects).
An effective solution is that using the black adhesive tape to cover the object surface, starting the
measurement until the adhesive tape’s temperature is same as the object
Field of View: The distance to spot ratio for this thermometer is 2: . The ideal working range of
the noncontact thermometer is between 25 mm and 250mm ( and 0 inches). The field of view is
a circular measurement area approximately equal to the distance from the target to the unit,
divided by 2. To ensure accurate measurements , measurement target must fill or exceed the field
of view.
7. MAINTENANCE
. Cleaning Instructions
The meter may be wiped down with a wet sponge or cloth using a mild water based detergent or
anti-bacterial soap and rinsed under a gentle stream of cold water.
NOTE:
This unit is not designed for complete submersion or washing in water
2. Battery replacement
Use the following procedure:
When the battery voltage drop below proper operation range the symbol will appear on the
LCD display and the battery need to be replaced.
•Press the battery cover and towards arrowhead direction to open the battery cover.
•Replace the battery with three new .5V batteries (AAA)
•Replace the battery cover.
