Non-contact IR Surface Temperature Measurements 

The built-in IR sensor can remotely measure the temperature of just about any surface. The Laser 
pointer allows the user to aim accurately when taking remote measurements. 

1.  Turn ON the meter using the on-off   button. 
2.  The IR sensor is located at the top of the meter. 
3.  Point the sensor toward the surface to be measured. 
4.  Press and hold the IRT button to begin measuring the surface 

temperature of a desired target. 

IR TEMP

 and  

 will appear on 

the display. The laser pointer will switch on to help aim the meter. 

5.  The measured IR surface temperature will appear on the LCD. 

The temperature displayed is the temperature of the area within 
the spot. 

6.  When the IRT button is released, the laser pointer will switch off 

and the reading will freeze (data hold) on the display for 
approximately 7 seconds. 

7.  After the 7 second hold time the meter returns to the Air 

Velocity/Flow and Air Temperature mode. 

 
 
 

WARNING: Do not directly view or direct the laser pointer at an eye. 

Low power visible lasers 

do not normally present a hazard, but may present some potential for hazard if viewed directly for 
extended periods of time. 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 

Data Hold 

1.  The HOLD button in the upper keypad area freezes the displayed vane 

temperature

 reading. 

Press again to unlock the display. 

2.  The HOLD button in the lower keypad area freezes the displayed 

air velocity

 or 

air flow

 

measurements. Press again to unlock the display. 

3. The 

HOLD

 indicator will appear on the LCD when the display is in Data Hold mode.
