1. General
Welcome to the manual for the hand held infrared pyrometer. You can
measure surface temperatures between 150°C (302°F) and 1800°C (3272°F)
without contact using this digital, battery powered pyrometer.
A laser pilot light marks the center of the measuring spot.
Caution!
Do not look into the laser beam!
It may damage your eyes.
The instrument has an illuminated LCD display, a serial RS-232-interface and a
socket for a 9 V battery charger.
This portable infrared thermometer is specialy made for the glass industry.
With a fixed spectral range at 5,14 µm the instrument is perfectly suitable to
measure to measure the temperature on glass surfaces.
On pure metal or other strong reflecting surfaces accurate measurements are
not possible.
Caution!
Prevent any contact between the lens and acidic substances
to avoid the generation of toxic gases!

All functions can be managed using the keys on the keyboard. The laser can
be turned on or off with the key marked by a laser symbol. The key marked
“PAR” is the Parameter key for choosing the parameter to be used or
adjusted (i.e. MAX or MIN or EMI Parameter for emissivity). The chosen
function always appears in the small display. Use the “up” or “down” keys for
adjusting or selecting a parameters value.

3.2. Setting up the instrument
The instrument is powered by a 9 V Alcaline-Manganese battery (IEC 6LR61) or
a 9 V rechargeable battery with the same dimensions, fitted into the handle. To
replace the battery, first remove the screw in the batterycover and then pull out
the battery cap. Fit the battery clip to the terminals on the battery, ensuring the
polarities are correctly matched. Replace the battery cap and the screw. The
pyrometer is now ready to use.
To prevent data losses, the battery change should only be done if the
instrument is not working.
Caution!
Do not use the battery chargerif a non-
rechargeable battery is fitted!
When using a rechargeable battery, it can be recharged via the socket for the
battery charger, being available as accessory.
The typical changing current is 10 mA.

3.1 Display and Keyboard
When the battery power is low the symbol will flash on the display.
The instrument can still be operated for a short time. If the battery power is
too low for the instrument to operate correctly, then it will switch off
automatically. For saving battery life it is advisable to use the laser pilot light
only temporarily for aiming at the target and then turning it off.

After an internal check (about 0.5 s), the measured temperature appears on
the display. At the RS-232-interface the values are also supplied at a time base
of 100 ms.
After releasing the trigger the last measured value is displayed, the output via
interface stops.
In the upper right corner of the LCD display the “HOLD” symbol appears. The
instrument remains for another 10s in standby and then turns off automatically.
After switching on the instrument again, the MAX, MIN, DIF and AVG values
are reset.

The close-up lens (accessory) reduces the spot diameter to 2.3 mm at a
distance of 96 mm.

(with e = the real objects emissivity)

When using the close-up lens the spot diameter for distances larger than

M = 0.23* a - 20 (all values in mm)
M - Diameter of the spot
a - Distance between targeted object and instrument

3.5. Laser sighting
The laser pilot light can be switched on or off by pressing the key marked
with the laser symbol. The laser beam marks the center of the target spot. If
the laser is turned on the laser symbol in the center of the upper row on the
display flashes.
Caution!
Do not look into the laser beam! It may damage your eyes.
3.6. Setting a Parameter
The different parameters can be chosen by repeatedly pressing the “PAR”-
key until the requested parameter appears in the parameter display.

3.6.1. Emissivity
The emissivity is the amount of heat radiation from the measured object –
compared with an ideal black object. To measure the temperature of any
surface accurately, it is necessary to know its emissivity and to set this value
correctly.
27
3.6.2. MAXimum and MINimum function
In addition to the actual temperature being shown on the large display, the
maximum (MAX) or minimum (MIN) temperature can be shown on the small
display.The MAXimum function is especially useful for finding hot spots on
larger areas by scanning this area with the pyrometer. Even small hot spots
can be registered because the MAX display reacts faster than the NORMAL
function (response time 150 ms). This method can also be used for fast
moving objects.

In case there should be an internal error, it will be shown on the small
display.
Err1: The internal power supply is faulty.e.g. the
battery is exhausted or defective, or the battery
charger is defective. In each case a
replacement is required.
Err2: Error during program e.g. due to strong
electromagnetic interference, move the
instrument away from the source of the
interference and restart it.
Having change the battery it is necessary to reset the instrument. Release
the trigger let the instrument turn off, and turn it on again by pulling the
trigger.
If it is now working, check the settings and reset the parameters.
If the error message is shown again, please contact your local dealer.

4. Error messages
In case there should be an internal error, it will be shown on the small
display.
Err1: The internal power supply is faulty.e.g. the
battery is exhausted or defective, or the battery
charger is defective. In each case a
replacement is required.
Err2: Error during program e.g. due to strong
electromagnetic interference, move the
instrument away from the source of the
interference and restart it.
Having change the battery it is necessary to reset the instrument. Release
the trigger let the instrument turn off, and turn it on again by pulling the
trigger.
If it is now working, check the settings and reset the parameters.
If the error message is shown again, please contact your local dealer.

5. Maintenance
Beside an occasional cleaning of the lens, no additional maintenance is
necessary.
For cleaning of the lens, a non fluffing cotton rag with pure alcohol is best.
Never use any other chemical cleaning detergent or mechanical aids.
Acidic liquids are strongly forbidden.
If the instrument is not used for a longer time period the battery should be
removed to avoid leaking and damaging the instrument.
Service instruction for INSPACTO portable infrared pyrometers
Maintenance of INSPACTO infrared pyrometers is not necessary.
All necessary repairs have to be performed by the manufacturer.
It is not allowed to intervene the instrument.
The laser emission (class 2) is below to 1 mW, even when the housing is
opened.
The radiant power of the laser was set to a value between 0.6 and 0.8 mW,
measured directly in front of the laser module, without penetrating the prism
and the lens in the pyrometer's main optics.
The regulation potentiometers on the laser power supply board, which is
attached immediately behind the laser, have been fixed with two-component
resin after adjustment and cannot be turned any longer.
(No possibility to change the emission/power of the laser pointer)

5. Maintenance
Le seul entretien nécessaire consiste à nettoyer périodiquement la lentille de
l'objectif à l'aide d'un tissu non pelucheux et d'éthanol.
Il ne faut jamais nettoyer cette lentille avec d'autres détergents chimiques
(en particulier, des détergents acides) ou d'autres moyens mécaniques.
Lorsque le thermomètre n'est pas utilisé durant une longue période, il faut
retirer la pile afin d'éviter toute détérioration liée à d'éventuels écoulements.
SAV our thermomètre portable INSPACTO
Les thermomètres portables infrarouges INSPACTO ne nécessitent aucun
entretien. Toutes les réparations sont réalisées chez le constructeur.
Il est interdit d’ intervenir sur láppareil.
La puissance du laser (classe 2) est inférieure á 1 mW, même loseque
l’appareil est ouvert.
Sur la carte électronique qui se situe près de la source laser avec le
potentiomètre règlé au milieu de sa valeur et dans l’axe optique du
thermomètre avec comprise entre 0,6 et 0,8 mW.
Ensuite le réglage du potentiomètre est figé à l’aide d’une cire époxy. (Aucune
action n’est plus possible sur le réglage de la puissance du laser)
