• Release the power button * Exergen manufactures specific instruments for safe and conve nient inspection of electrical equipment. If electrical inspection is of particular importance, contact Exergen for more informa tion relative to the dedicated electrical inspection instruments. ** If the surface is metallic, be sure to mark it as previously described (see pg. 2).
High Temperature Targets When using the D501 on high tem perature targets, momentarily touch the target’s surface - a fraction of a second is long enough to get an accurate reading. If these instruments are used in contact with a hot surface for an extended time (10 seconds or more) the target’s heat will be conducted into the nose- piece.
Thermal Scanning The high-performance Microscanner D-Series can also be used to ™ measure tempera tures at a distance. When not touching or close to a surface: • The Microscanner is a wide-angle ther mal scanner with a fixed ™ emissivity of .98. •...
Measuring Relative Humidity with the Microscanner D501 ™ A unique benefit of the Microscanner D501 is its ability to measure wet ™ and dry bulb tem peratures faster and more accurately than ever before. A Relative Humidity Kit is available as an accessory. Contact Industrial Sales Customer Support for more information.
Helpful Hints Although transparent materials pass vis ible light, many visible transparent materials are opaque in the infrared and can be directly measured by the Microscanner D-Series. ™ To test for infrared transparency, touch the Microscanner to the surface ™ and pass a heat source, such as your hand, through the sensor’s field of view on the other side of the material.
Maintenance The high performance Microscanner D-Series products are rugged and ™ durable instruments. They are designed to be used as a tool with long temperature measurement reliability. • Calibration Calibration is performed by a computer through an optical link with the unit’s micro processor.
Exergen for further directions. Warranty Exergen warrants the Microscanner™ D-Series to be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year from the date of purchase, and will repair or replace the returned instrument (at Exergen’s discretion) at no charge during the period.
