Introduction
This hand-held thermal imaging camera combines the function of a surface
measuring infrared thermometer with real-time thermal imaging. The device
translates thermal energy (heat) into visible light (on screen) to enable
analysis of a particular object or area. Instead of just getting a number for
the temperature, you get an on-screen image showing the temperature
differences of a surface. This lets you see the heat so you know exactly
where to target the measurement spot. Easily find unseen hot and cold
spots for instant troubleshooting. The sensitive thermal imagery usefully
shows component outlines to aid subsequent identification of problem
areas or components.
Save images and data for documentation, and download your images
quickly via the removable microSD card, or linked direct to a PC via the
Mico USB port.
The Laser 6515 provides fast temperature readings without physically
touching the object. It can safely measure hot, hazardous, or hard-to-reach
surfaces without contaminating or damaging the object.
The Laser 6515 also features a UV leak detector function. For example,
detecting leaks in cooling systems and air-conditioning systems when a
suitable UV indicator dye is used.
Uses and applications are many and varied:
Automotive applications include: inspecting for irregular friction,
overheating from mechanical misalignments, binding bearings or brake
components, heated seat element malfunctions, checking vehicle heating
and air-conditioning systems, engine radiator and thermostat function,
exhaust manifolds, injector/cylinder malfunctions, diesel engine glow-
plug malfunctions, high resistance in high-current wiring and hot electrical
connection issues.
Building, electrical and maintenance applications include: missing,
damaged or inadequate insulation, damp/moisture intrusion, radiators and
under-floor heating, air-conditioning systems, identification of hot and cold
pipework, heat loss from seals, frames or windows, high resistance in high-
current wiring and hot electrical connection issues, etc.

Safety
CAUTION: Read all the safety information
before using the product.
The 6515 uses a Class II laser that emits low levels
of visible radiation which are safe for the skin but
may not be safe for the eyes. Class 2 lasers are
limited to a maximum output power of 1 milliwatt
(abbreviated to mW, one thousandth of a watt) and
the beam must have a wavelength between 400
and 700 nm. A person receiving an eye exposure
from a Class 2 laser beam, either accidentally or
as a result of someone else’s deliberate action
(misuse) will be protected from injury by their
own natural aversion response. This is a natural
involuntary response that causes the individual to
blink and avert their head thereby terminating the
eye exposure. Repeated, deliberate exposure to
the laser beam may not be safe.
• DO NOT look or stare into the laser beam as permanent eye damage
could result.
• DO NOT direct the laser beam at any person’s (or animal’s) eyes as eye
damage could result.
• BE AWARE that the reflections of the laser beam from mirrors or other
shiny surfaces can be as hazardous as direct eye exposure.
• The user should be familiar with the 6515 Thermal Camera’s operation,
application, limitations and potential hazards. These instructions should
be fully read and understood before using the 6515 Thermal Camera.
