Response Time: 0.25 second
Spectral Response: 6 to 14 mm nominal
Fixed emissivity: 0.95

ε

Detection Element: Thermopile
Optical Lens: Fresnel lens
Sighting: Single beam laser marker <1mW (class 2)

Operating Instructions

Trigger
Laser and backlit turn on at the same time as the power
Pull the trigger to turn on the meter when power off
If the trigger is released the value will be held and “Hold” displayed

Selecting the Temperature Scale
Readings are displayed in either degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit
(°F). When the thermometer is turned on, it is set to the temperature scale
that was in use when the thermometer was last turned off. To change the
temperature scale, Pull off the battery cap and then slide the switch to select
°C or °F.

Operation
1. Take the protective cap off and then pull the trigger to turn on the meter
2. Point the lens at the object whose temperature is to be measured
3. Referring to the spot size figure below, aim the laser beam at the object
whose temperature is to be measured.
4. Pull the trigger. Measurement is performed as long as trigger is held.
5. Put the cap on to extend life of the sensor and to avoid danger caused by

misuse of the laser

Note: Although the field of measurement (or field of view) and the spot size

almost coincide, actually the field of measurement corresponds to the
diameter for 90% optical response. The object whose temperature is
to be measured needs to be larger than the measurement diameter
(spot of size) by an adequate margin at least 1.5 to 2 times larger.
