INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchase of the IR Thermometer. This is
capable of non-contact (infrared) temperature
measurements at the touch of a button. The built-in laser
pointer increases target accuracy while the backlight LCD
and handy push-buttons combine for convenient, ergonomic
operation.
The Non-contact Infrared Thermometers 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.)
Proper use and care of this meter will provide years of
reliable service.
FEATURES:
Rapid detection function
Precise non-contact measurements
Dual laser sighting
Unique flat surface, modern housing design
Automatic Data Hold
℃/℉switch
Emissivity Digitally adjustable from 0.10 to 1.0
MAX temperature displays
Backlight LCD display
Automatic selection range and Display Resolution 0.1º
C(0.1ºF)
Trigger lock
Set high and low alarms

WIDE RANGE APPLICATION:
Food preparation, Safety and Fire inspectors, Plastic
molding, Asphalt, Marine and Screen printing, measure ink
and Dryer temperature, HVAC/R, Diesel and Fleet
maintenance.
SAFETY
Use extreme caution when the laser beam is turned on.
Do not let the beam enter your eye, another person’s
eye or the eye of an animal.
Be careful no to let the beam on a reflective surface
strike your eye.
Do not allow the laser light beam impinge on any gas
which can explode.

Distance & Spot Size
As the distance (D) from the object increases, the spot size
(S) of the area measured by the unit becomes larger. The
relationship between distance and spot size for each unit is
listed below. The focal point for each unit is 914mm (36”).
The spot sizes indicate 90% encircled energy.

Note:
Field of View: Make sure that the target is larger than
the unit’s spot size. The smaller the target, the closer
you should be to it. When accuracy is critical, make
sure the target is at least twice as large as the spot
size.

particularly useful for continuous monitoring of temperatures.
Press the up button or down button to turn on or off . Press
the Measurement Trigger to confirm the lock measurement
mode. The IR Thermometer will continuously display the
temperaure until press again the Measurement Trigger.

MEASUREMENT OPERATION
①Hold the meter by its Handle Grip and point it
toward the surface to be measured.
②Pull and hold the Trigger to turn the meter on and
begin testing. The display will light if the battery is
good. Replace the battery if the display does not light.

③Release the Trigger and the HOLD display icon
will appear on the LCD indicating that the reading is
being held. In HOLD status, press the UP button to
turn on or off the laser. And press the DOWN button to
turn on or off the backlight.
④The meter will automatically power down after
approximately 7 seconds after the trigger is
released.(Unless the unit is locked on)
Note: Measurement considerations
Holding the meter by its handle, point the IR Sensor
toward the object whose temperature is to be measured.
The meter automatically compensates for temperature
deviations from ambient temperature. Keep in mind that
it will take up to 30 minutes to adjust to wide ambient
temperatures are to be measured followed by high
temperature measurements, some time (several
minutes) is required after the low (and before the high)
temperature measurements are made.
This is a result of the cooling process, which must take
place for the IR sensor.
