  • Page 3: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchase of the 8833 IR Thermometer. This device offers non-contact (infrared) temperature measurements capability. The built-in laser pointer increases target accuracy while the backlight LCD and handy push-buttons combine for convenient, ergonomic operation. Type K thermocouple functionality is also built-in. Proper use and care of this meter will provide years of reliable service.

    Trigger lock High and Low alarm Obtain Emissivity WIDE RANGE APPLICATION: Food preparation, Safety and Fire inspectors, Plastic molding, Asphalt, Marine and Screen printing, measure ink Dryer temperature, HVAC/R, Diesel 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.
  • Page 5: Distance & Spot Size

    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: Accuracy: Given at 18 to 28 o C (64 to 82 ℉), less than 80 % RH. 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.

    ALARM right. To set values for the High Alarm (HAL), Low Alarm (LAL) and Emissivity (EMS), firstly active the display by pulling the trigger or pressing the MODE button, then press the MODE button until the appropriate code appears in the lower left corner of the display, press the UP and down buttons to adjust the desired values.
  • Page 13 How to obtain Emissivity? In the EMS mode, press and hold the Laser/Backlight button until the “EMS” icon on the left side of LCD blinking. At this time, “ε= --” will appear at the upper side of the LCD; IR temperature value will be in the middle of LCD;...
  • Page 14 suitable for obtaining a higher accuracy emissivity. After obtaining the emissivity, if the difference between IR value (in the middle of LCD) and TK value (at the lower side of LCD) is too big, the obtained emissivity will be incorrect. It’s necessary to obtain a new emissivity.
  • Page 15: Battery Replacement

    BATTERY REPLACEMENT ① As battery power is not sufficient, LCD will display “ ” replacement with one new 9V battery is required. ② Open battery cover, then take out the battery from instrument and replace with a new 9-Volt battery and place the battery cover back.
  • Page 16 Distance & Spot Size As the distance (D) from the object increases, the spot size (S) of the area measured by the unit becomes larger. See: Fig: 1. Locating a hot Spot To find a hot spot aim the thermometer outside the area of interest, then scan across with an up and down motion until you locate hot spot.
  • Page 17 ② The unit cannot measure through transparent surfaces such as glass. It will measure the surface temperature of the glass instead. ③ Steam, dust, smoke, etc., Can prevent accurate measurement by obstructing the unit’s optics. Emissivity Emissivity term used describe energy-emitting characteristics of materials.
