INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing this infrared thermometer. By simply pressing a push button and owing to infrared rays, it is possible to carry out temperature measurements without coming into contact with the object. The built-in laser pointer increases measurement accuracy while the retroilluminated LCD.display.and.practical.push-buttons.combine.for.convenient.and.ergonomic.use.
Continuous measurement mode (Trigger lock) • Setting up of alarms (high/low) • WIDE RANGE APPLICATION: The.non.contact.infrared.thermometer.can.be.used.to.measure.temperature.in.the.foodstuffs.sector,. in safety and anti-fire inspections, in the plastic injection pressing industry, in the asphalt sector, in naval engineering, in silk screen printing and in the offset printing sector for the measurement of ink drying temperature, in heating, ventilation and air conditioning/refrigeration systems and for diesel engines in the maintenance workshops of automobile fleets.
The relationship between distance and dimensions of the laser beam is indicated as follows for the different thermometer models. The focal point is 914mm (36”). The laser beam dimensions.correspond.to.90%.of.energy.emitted. Picture:. MODEL:.1760/IR800.. Distance (D) / to spot size (S) D:S=20:1 12.7mm @254mm 25.4mm @508mm...

Note: Measurement operations considerations To correctly carry out measurement, grip the thermometer and point the infrared sensor towards the object whose temperature is intended to be measured. The instrument is automatically capable of compensating for temperature deviations owed to ambient temperature. Keep in mind that the infrared.sensor.needs.a.certain.time.to.stabilize.in.temperature..Therefore,.if.it.is.necessary.to.

When accuracy is in doubt, make sure the area in question is at least twice as large as the diameter.of.the.laser.beam.

• Emissivity. Emissivity.is.a.term.used.to.describe.the.energy-emitting.characteristics.of.different. materials. The emissivity of the great part of organic materials and painted or oxydised (90% of standard applications) is equal to 0.95 (pre-set on the instrument). To compensate for possible imprecise readings, which can result from measurements carried out on metal or shining surfaces, cover the area to be measured with adhesive tape or opaque black paint and wait until this new material reaches the same temperature of the object that it is protecting,.
