SAFETY
Use extreme caution when the laser beam is turned on.
Do not let the beam enter your eyes, another person’s eyes or the eyes of an an-
imal. Be careful that reflections of the beam (on a reflective surface) do not strike
your eyes.
Do not aim the laser beam at any gas that may explode.
Please read the complete safety instructions in the booklet delivered with this
device.
HOW IT WORKS
Infrared thermometers measure the surface temperature 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 display. The laser in this device is
used for aiming purposes only.
FIELD OF VIEW
Make sure the target is larger than the unit’s spot size. The smaller the target, the
closer you should go to make your measurement. When accuracy is critical, make
sure the target is at least twice as large as the spot size.
DISTANCE & SPOT SIZE
As the distance (D) from the object increases, the spot size (S) of the area meas-
ured by the Temppointer 9 becomes larger.
The relationship between distance and spot size for this unit is 16:1. This means
that when measuring at a distance of 16cm of the object, the measuring surface
has approximately a diameter of 1cm.
MEASUREMENT OPERATION
· Hold the meter by its handle grip and point it towards the surface to be meas-
ured.
· Pull and hold the trigger (10) to turn the meter on and begin testing. The SCAN
symbol (A) will appear on the LCD display. As long as the trigger isn’t released,
temperatures will be scanned.
To locate a hot-spot: Aim the thermometer outside the area of interest. Scan
across with an up and down motion until you locate a hot spot.
· If there appears nothing on the screen, please check the batteries.
· Release the trigger and the HOLD symbol (B) will appear on the LCD display.
This indicates the last temperature measurements stays available in the device.
· The meter will automatically power down approximately 10 seconds after the
trigger is released.
NOTE
·
An infrAred thermometer must AdApt to Ambient temperAture. this mAy tAke
up to 30 minutes to Adjust to high temperAture fluctuAtions. so, wAit A few
minutes between meAsuring A hot And cold object.
·
An infrAred thermometer cAnnot be meAsured through trAnspArent surfAces
(eg. glAss). he will then meAsure the temperAture of the glAss.

EXTRA FUNCTIONS
· As long as the HOLD symbol (B) is visible on the screen, pushing the Laser but-
ton / Up button (4) will switch on or off the laser indication.
