Benetech GM700 User manual

MODEL: GM700
Infrared thermometer
Instruction manual
A. Introduction
This infrared thermometer is used for measuring
the temperature of the object's surface, which is
applicable for various hot, hazardous or hard to
reach objects without contact safely and quickly.
This unit consist of Optics, Temperature Sensor
Signal amplifier, Processing circuit and LCD Display.
The Optics collected the infrared energy emitted by
object and focus onto the Sensor. Then the sensor
translates the energy into an electricity signal. This
signal will be turned out to be digital shown on the
LCD after the signal amplifier and processing circuit.
B. Warning & Cautions
1. Warning:
To avoid the potential situation may cause harm or
damage to people, please pay attention to the
following items:
1) Before you use this unit, check on the plastic
housing carefully. If there is any damage, do not
use it
2) Do not point laser directly at eye or indirectly off
reflective surfaces.
3) Do not use this unit in the environment of
explosive gas, steam or dusty.
2. Caution:
To avoid the damage of the unit or the target, please
protect from the following situations:
1) EMF (electro-magnetic fields) from arc welders, or
induction heaters.
2) Thermal shock caused by high temperature changes
allow 30 minutes for unit to stabilize before use.
3) Do not leave the unit on or near objects of high
temperature
2) Field of view: Make sure the target is larger than
the unit's spot size. The smaller the target the
closer measure distance. When accuracy is
critical, make sure the ta get is at least twice as
large as the spot size.
(Page 1) (Page 2) (Page 3)
C. Distance to Spot size
1) When take measurement, pay attention to the
D stance to Spot Size. As the Distance (D)
from the target surface increases, the spot size
(S) of the area measured by the unit becomes
larger. The Distance to Spot size of the unit is
12:1
***This unit is equipped with a laser, which is used for
aiming.
D. Emissivity
Emissivity, Most organic materials and painted or
oxidized surfaces have an emissivity of 0.95 (pre-set
in the unit). Inaccurate readings will result from
measuring shiny or polished metal surfaces. To
compensate, cover the target surface with masking
tape or flat black paint. Measure the tape or painted
surface when the tape or painted reach the same
temperature as the material underneath.
Material Emissivity Material Emissivity
Aluminum 0.3 Iron 0.70
Asbestos 0.95 Lead 0.5
Asphalt 0.95 Limestone 0.98
Basalt 0.70 Oil 0.94
Brass 0.5 Paint 0.93
Brick 0.90 Paper 0.95
Carbon 0.85 Plastic 0.95
Ceramic 0.95 Rubber 0.95
Concrete 0.95 Sand 0.90
Copper 0.95 Skin 0.98
Dirt 0.94 Snow 0.90
Frozen food 0.90 Steel 0.80
Hot food 0.93 Textiles 0.94
Glass(Plate) 0.85 Water 0.93
Ice 0.98 Wood 0..94

E. Operation
Operating the unit：
1) Open the battery door and insert a battery properly.
2) Pull the trigger to turn on the unit.
3) Aim at the target surface and pull the trigger, then
temperature will be shown on the LCD. This unit is
equipped with a laser which is only used for aiming.
Locating a Hot Spot：
To find a hot spot, aim the thermometer outside of
interest, then scan across with an up and down motion
until you locate the hot spot. (Figure 3)

G. Maintenance
1. Lens Cleaning: Blow off loose particles
using clean compressed air. Gently brush
remaining debris away with a moist cotton
swab. The swab may be moistened with
water.
2. Case cleaning: Clean the case with a
damp sponge/ cloth and mild soap.
Note:
1) 1) Do not use solvent to clean plastic lens.
2) 2) Do not submerge the unit in water.
