Introduction
The 572-2 Infrared Thermometer (the Product) is for non-
contact temperature measurement. The Product determines the
surface temperature of an object by measuring the amount of
infrared energy radiated by the object surface. A K-type
thermocouple can be used with the Product for contact-
temperature measurement.
Safety Information
A Warning identifies conditions and procedures that are
dangerous to the user. A Caution identifies conditions and
procedures that can cause damage to the Product or the
equipment under test.
Symbols used on the Product and in this manual are explained
in Table 1.
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, eye
damage, and personal injury:
•Read all safety Information before you use
the Product.
•Use the Product only as specified, or the
protection supplied by the Product can be
compromised.
•Do not use the Product around explosive
gas, vapor, or in damp or wet environments.
•Do not use the Product if it operates
incorrectly.

•See emissivity information for actual
temperatures. Reflective objects result in
lower than actual temperature
measurements. These objects pose a burn
hazard.
•Do not look directly into the laser with optical
tools (for example, binoculars, telescopes,
microscopes). Optical tools can focus the
laser and be dangerous to the eye.
•Do not look into the laser. Do not point laser
directly at persons or animals or indirectly off
reflective surfaces.
•Use the product only as specified, or
hazardous laser radiation exposure can
occur.
•Do not use laser viewing glasses as laser
protection glasses. Laser viewing glasses are
used only for better visibility of the laser in
bright light.
•Do not open the Product. The laser beam is
dangerous to eyes. Have the Product
repaired only through an approved technical
site.
•Have an approved technician repair the
product.

Caution
For safe operation and maintenance of the
Product:
•Remove the batteries if the Product is not
used for an extended period of time, or if
stored in temperatures above 50 °C. If the
batteries are not removed, battery leakage
can damage the Product.
•Replace the batteries when the low battery
indicator shows to prevent incorrect
measurements.
•Repair the Product before use if the batteries
leak.
•Be sure that the battery polarity is correct to
prevent battery leakage.

Caution
To avoid damage to the Product or the equipment
under test, protect them from:
•EMF (electro-magnetic fields) from arc
welders, induction heaters, etc.
•Static electricity
•Thermal shock (caused by large or abrupt
ambient temperature changes. For highest
accuracy, allow 30 minutes for Product to
stabilize before use).
