InfraRed (Non-Contact) Temperature Measurements
1. The IR sensor is located at the top of the meter.
2. Point the sensor toward the surface to be measured.
3. Press and hold the red IR button to begin measuring the
surface temperature of a desired target. IR TEMP and will
appear on the display. The laser pointer will switch on to help
aim the meter.
4. The measured IR surface temperature will appear at the
center of the LCD (larger digits). The temperature displayed is
the temperature of the area within the spot.
5. When the red IR button is released, the laser pointer will
switch off and the reading will freeze (data hold) on the
display for approximately 3 seconds.
6. Note that the vane (Air Temperature) continues to monitor
temperature during IR tests and its temperature is displayed
on the top of the LCD (smaller digits).
7. After approximately 3 seconds the meter defaults to the Air
Flow and Air Temperature display.
WARNING: Do not directly view or direct the laser pointer at an eye. Low power
visible lasers do not normally present a hazard, but may present some potential for
hazard if viewed directly for extended periods of time.
