Information about the device
Device description
The pyrometer TP10 uses an infrared sensor to measure surface
temperatures without contact. An integrated multi-laser pointer
serves for the determination of the measuring spot.
You can set the emissivity of the material to be measured so as
to achieve a more precise measurement result.
For the temperature measurement the device allows you to set
freely definable thresholds. Exceeding or falling below these
preselected thresholds is indicated by an acoustic alarm
function and visually by a changed display colour.
The display can be illuminated as needed. When not in use, an
automatic switch-off saves the battery.
Measuring principle
The device measures the temperature by means of an infrared
sensor. Important factors playing a role in the temperature
measurement are the measuring spot diameter and the
emissivity.
Measuring spot
Observe the distance to measuring spot diameter ratio. The
larger the distance to the object, the larger the measuring spot
diameter and hence, the less precise the measured result. The
device calculates an average temperature from all the
temperatures in the measuring spot.

Emissivity
Emissivity is a value used to describe the energy radiation
characteristics of a material.
Most organic materials have an emissivity of0.95. Metals or
shiny materials come with a much lower value.
A material's emissivity depends on various factors, e.g. on
• Material composition
• Surface condition
• Temperature
The emissivity can range between 0.1 and 1 (in theory).
The following rule of thumb can be assumed:
• When a material is rather dark and its surface texture matt,
it probably has a high emissivity.
• The brighter and smoother the surface of a material, the
lower will be its emissivity, presumably.
• The higher the emissivity of the surface to be measured,
the better it is suited for non-contact temperature
measurement by use of a pyrometer or thermal imaging
camera, since falsifying temperature reflections become
negligible.
Nevertheless, entering an emissivity as appropriate as possible
is indispensable for a precise measurement.

1. Open the battery compartment by folding open the
cover(28) with your fingers.
2. Use the battery clip(27) to connect the new battery
(1x 9V) with correct polarity.
3. Insert the battery in the battery compartment.

Carrying out a measurement
Info
Please note that moving from a cold area to a warm
area can lead to condensation forming on the device's
circuit board. This physical and unavoidable effect can
falsify the measurement. In this case, the display
shows either no measured values or they are incorrect.
Wait a few minutes until the device has become
adjusted to the changed conditions before carrying out
a measurement.
• Ensure that the surface to be measured is free of dust, dirt
or similar substances.
• To be able to gain exact measurement results on surfaces
which reflect heavily, stick matt masking tape to the
surface or apply matt black paint with a very high and
known emissivity.
• Note the 75:1 ratio of the distance to the measuring spot
diameter. For accurate measurements the measuring
object should be at least twice as large as the measuring
spot.
Please proceed as follows to carry out a measurement:
1. Point the device at the object to be measured.
2. Press the measurement button(8). Hold the measurement
button(8) if you want to perform a prolonged
measurement.

De-/activating the USB function
Info
Activating the USB function is not required, if you only
want to use the USB port for the sake of ensuring the
power supply for the measuring device. The USB
function is only required for the software-supported
recording of measurement series in real time.
1. Repeatedly press the Modebutton(3) until the Hi Set Lo
menu is displayed.
2. Press the F2button(5).
ðThe Set menu will be displayed.
3. Select Send Data and press the F2button(5).
ðYou can now choose between Real Time and Memory.
4. Select Real Time, if you want to activate the USB function.
5. Press the F2button(5) to switch between On (enable) and
Off (disable).
6. Press the Modebutton(3) to confirm your selection.
ðDepending on your selection the USB function is now
de-/activated.
7. If you want to transfer the measured values saved in the
device to the PC, select Memory and confirm with OK.
ðUSB mode will then be active for the transmission
period and will be deactivated again afterwards.
Using the software for recording measurement series
• Make sure the device is connected to a PC via USB cable.
• Make sure that the software for recording measurement
series required for USB operation is installed on the PC.
• Make sure that the USB function is activated.
During the entire measuring procedure, both the temperature
values of the infrared sensor and those of the external type K
sensor (if connected) will be transmitted to the software and
recorded.
Info
The supplied software is a complimentary bonus that
does not belong to the standard scope of delivery and
is offered for use without support or warranty. The
program interface (only available in the English
language) is generally easily comprehensible and can
be used intuitively. Further information regarding the
use is provided in the application.
Using external sensors (contact sensor type K)
In addition to the non-contact temperature measurement, the
measuring device can be used for contact measurements using
an external type K contact sensor.
1. Open the lateral sealing cap of the device.
2. Connect the contact sensor to the miniature contact pin
connection(10) of the device.
ðIt takes a few seconds until the sensor is detected.
ðDuring the measurement the contact sensor's measured
value is indicated in the lower measurement value
display(20).

Disposal
Always dispose of packing materials in an environmentally
friendly manner and in accordance with the applicable local
disposal regulations.
The icon with the crossed-out waste bin on waste
electrical or electronic equipment is taken from Directive
2012/19/EU. It states that this device must not be disposed of
with the household waste at the end of its life. You will find
collection points for free return of waste electrical and electronic
equipment in your vicinity. The addresses can be obtained from
your municipality or local administration. You can also find out
about other return options that apply for many EU countries on
the website https://hub.trotec.com/?id=45090. Otherwise,
please contact an official recycling centre for electronic and
electrical equipment authorised for your country.
The separate collection of waste electrical and electronic
equipment aims to enable the re-use, recycling and other forms
of recovery of waste equipment as well as to prevent negative
effects for the environment and human health caused by the
disposal of hazardous substances potentially contained in the
equipment.
In the European Union, batteries and accumulators must
not be treated as domestic waste, but must be disposed of
professionally in accordance with Directive 2006/66/EC of the
European Parliament and of the Council of 6September2006
on batteries and accumulators. Please dispose of batteries and
accumulators according to the relevant legal requirements.
Only for United Kingdom
According to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Regulations 2013 (SI2013/3113) (as amended) and the Waste
Batteries and Accumulators Regulations 2009 (SI2009/890) (as
amended), devices that are no longer usable must be collected
separately and disposed of in an environmentally friendly
manner.
