User's Manual

1. Summary of Infrared Thermometer
Thank you for choosing our Infrared Thermometer. The KRT01
Infrared Thermometer is used to measure an objects temperature
Simply aim the unit probe toward the surface to obtain a quick and
accurate temperature. To ensure proper use, please be sure to read
this user manual carefully, paying close attention to the safety
precautions.
Please keep these instructions on the side for easy checking.
Basic principles:
All objects above absolute zero temperature emits certain
percentage of infrared radiation energy based on its temperature.
The amount of the radiation energy and the distribution of the
wavelength have avery close relationship. When a human
forehead’s temperature in 36-37℃, it emits wavelength 9-13um of
infrared radiation. Based on this principle, according to the
relationship between surface forehead temperature and human
forehead’s temperature, we can measure the human forehead’s
actual temperature through measuring surface forehead
temperature.
2. Safety precautions
