INTRODUCTION
The Infrared Thermometer is digital and with type-K
thermocouple input being a dual measurement product.
Although the precised design in it, the hand-held Infrared
Thermometer is easy for user to operate, in addition, the
backlight illuminative function is helpful to user who is used
to measure at the dark place. Moreover, the Infrared
Thermometer will show a Laser symbol in LCD as a
reminder and its additional auto hold the reading &
auto-power-off functions are practical to users.
The Infrared Thermometer is a Non-contact thermometer
with laser pointer. It can be used to measure the
temperature of objects’ surface that is improper to be
measured by traditional (contact) thermometer (such as
moving object, the surface with electricity current or the
objects which are uneasy to be touched.)
Ⅰ. SAFETY INFORMATION
1. Read the following safety information carefully before
attempting to operate or service the meter.
2. use the meter only as specified in this manual ; otherwise,
the protection provided by the meter may be impaired.
Warning
If user presses MEAS button while the symbol is showing in
LCD, then the meter will radiate the laser. At this moment, user
has to avoid the laser radiating to your eyes to prevent any hurts.
˙If the measured object with smooth surface and will reflect the
laser, pls. prevent the reflected laser to radiate your eyes.
˙Pls. don’t radiate the laser to inflammable gas to avoid
dangers.

3. Precautions:
a). Do not operate the thermometer near the large
electrical or magnetic fields.
b). Keep the thermometer away from direct sunlight or
strong source of light, hot objects (70℃/158℉), high
temperatures, high humidity, or dust during using and
storaging.
c). If the thermometer was at the environment where’s
temperature changes drastically, it would be fine to start
measuring until the thermometer return to the stable
status.
d). Condensation may from on the focal lens if the
thermometer was moved quickly form a cold to a hot
environment. Before taking measurements, pls. wait
for the condensation to dissipate.
e). Do not touch the focal lens.
4. Environment conditions:
a). Altitude up to 2000 meters.
b). Relatively humidity 80% max.
c). Operating Ambient 0 ~ 40℃
5. Maintenance & Clearing:
a). Repairs or serving aren’t covered in this manual should
only be performed by qualified personnel.
b). Periodically wipe the case with a dry cloth. Don’t use
abrasives or solvents on this instrument.
c). When serving, use only specified replacement parts.

Ⅵ. Emissivity Adjustment
1. Emissivity : Emissivity is a value between 0 and 1 that
indicates an object’s ability to emit infrared energy,
Emissivity is determined primarily by the object’s
composition and surface finish.
The thermometer’s sensitivity to emissivity “
ε ” was set a
0.95 before shipment because the objects of 90% that
emissivity are around 0.95.
2. Emissivity Adjustment
a). Apply black tape, black mat paint, or black magic marker
to the object if it is safe.
b). “
ε ” is set at 0.95 to measure the dark surface.
c). To aim the laser at dark surface, press MEAS button to
get measurement as T1.
d). Remove the black tape or black mat paint and aim laser
at the same area again then press MEAS button to get
the measurement as (T).
e). Change & reset a value for emissivity “
ε ” to get
measurement (T) until T equal to T1.
