Thermometer with “K” Port. Please read this user’s manual carefully and thoroughly before using the instrument. The IRT850K is a specialized instrument that can measure the temperature of a very hot or cold object or surface (the target) by using an IR sensor to measure its thermal radiation from a safe distance. -
Page 3: Safety Instructions
CAUTION - Performing procedures other than those specified in this manual may result in dangerous radiation exposure. The IRT850K is a Class 2 laser product that emits less than 1 mW of radiation at a wavelength between 635 and 660nm. Avoid looking directly at the laser pointers. U.S. law prohibits pointing a laser beam at aircraft;... -

Figure 1 shows all of the controls, indicators, connectors and other physical features of the IRT850K. Figure 2 shows a typical measurement display. Familiarize yourself with the positions and functions of all controls and key components and the meaning of all display indications before moving on to the Setup Instructions and Operating Instructions. -
Page 5: Setup Instructions
SETUP INSTRUCTIONS INSTALL BATTERIES The IRT850K is ready for use after you install two “AAA” batteries (not included) in the instrument’s grip. To open the battery compartment (Fig. 1, Callout 7), pull the top of its hinged cover away from the grip. Then install the two batteries in the compartment, using the + and –... -
Page 6: Accounting For Emissivity
If background objects are hotter than the target, the measured temperature will be higher than the target’s actual temperature. The IRT850K’s very large D:S ratio of 50:1 enables measurement of very high- or –low temperature objects from a safe distance. - Page 7 (LAL). The IRT850K can store up to 24 pairs of temperature measurements/emissivity values. Fig. 4. A typical IRT850K memory screen Two other functions are available whenever the IRT850K is operating in MAX, MIN, dIF or AVG mode. 1. Pressing the Lock button puts the instrument into LOCK mode.

Tavg = (Tmotor + Tbackground) ÷ 2 Solving for Tavg, we get (200 + 75) ÷ 2 or 137.5°F., which is what the IRT850K would display. In other words, trying to measure the temperature of the motor from 100 ft. away introduced an error of (200-137.5) ÷... -
