Features Measures surface temperature instantly: The advantage of the non-contact infrared method is quick-response measurement, and the single-hand-held unit allows easy operation by using trigger type measurement button. Non-contact, clean measurement: Ideal for food processing industries where clean and hygienic measurement is required. ...

4. How to Measure (1) Remove the lens cap. (2) Prior to measurement, set the laser marker and emissivity. (3) Direct the thermometer at an object and pull the trigger. Then, the measured temperature is displayed on the LCD. NB.: Infrared rays in this measurement wavelength range do not penetrate glasses. When measuring the object through the glass, it detects the surface temperature of the glass.

4-2. High-Temperature Measurement Operating the thermometer continuously to measure a high-temperature (200ºC or more) object at a short distance (30 mm or less) for a long time (three minutes or more) may cause a drop in the performance of the infrared lens. When measuring a hot object of 200ºC or more, the distance should be 30 mm or more and operation should be completed within a short time.
6. Setting the Laser Marker While pulling the trigger, press the laser marker レーザ key simultaneously to set the laser marker on or off. While the laser marker レーザ key is ON, the laser marker can be output. While the laser marker key is OFF the laser marker is not output.
