The
Thermal
Imager
measures
a
targeted
surface’s
temperature.
Color
variations
reflect
temperature
differences:
lighter
colors
=
higher
temperatures
and
darker
colors
=
cooler
temperatures.
The
Distance
to
Spot
(target)
ratio
is
30:1
so
at
a
distance
of
30”
the
target
spot
is
1”.
Use
the
Cross
hairs
and
Laser
pointer
to
optimize
surface
targeting.
WARNING:
Do
not
point
the
laser
beam
toward
the
eyes;
prolonged
exposure
may
cause
injury.
