Model 42525A Version 4.0   5/05 

Introduction 

Congratulations on your purchase of Extech’s 42525A IR Thermometer. The Model 
42525A provides non-contact (IR) and contact (type K) temperature measurement 
capability. The built-in laser pointer (activated by pressing the meter’s trigger) increases 
target accuracy. The Model 42525A has an RS-232 PC Interface jack for recording 
readings as they are taken. Professional features include EMISSIVITY ADJUST, 
RELATIVE MODE, DATA HOLD, DISPLAY OFFSET, and MIN MAX DISPLAY. Proper 
use and care of this meter will provide years of reliable service. 
 
 

Safety 

1.  Use extreme caution when the laser beam is ON 

2.  Do not point the beam toward anyone's eye 

3.  Be careful not to let the beam strike the eye from a reflective surface 

4.  Do not use the laser near explosive gases or in other potentially explosive areas
