  • Page 6: How It Works

    How it Works Infrared thermometers measure the surface tempera- ture of an object. The unit’s optics sense emitted, reflected, and transmitted energy, which is collected and focused onto a detector. The unit’s electronics translate the information into a temperature reading which is displayed on the unit.
  • Page 7 Emissivity Emissivity is a term used to describe the energy- emitting characteristics of materials. Most (90% of typical applications) organic materials and painted or oxidized surfaces have an emissivity of 0.95 (fixed in the unit). Inaccurate readings will result from measuring shiny or polished metal surfaces. To compensate, cover the surface to be measured with black tape or flat black paint.

  • Page 9: Setup And Operation

    Setup and Operation 1. Hold the meter by its handle grip and point it toward the surface to be measured. 2. Pull and hold the trigger to turn the meter on and begin testing. The display will light if the battery is good.

  • Page 11 Safety • Use extreme caution when the laser beam is turned on. • Do not let the laser beam enter your eye, another person’s eye or the eye of an animal. • Be careful not to let the laser beam on a reflective surface strike your eye.
  • Page 12 Maintenance, Recalibration, and Repair (Cont.) It is recommended that Digi-Sense products are calibrated annually to ensure proper function and accurate measure- ments; however, your quality system or regulatory body may require more frequent calibrations. To schedule your recalibration, please contact InnoCal, an ISO 17025 calibra- tion laboratory accredited by A2LA.
