K-TYPE TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
CAUTION
Do not compare the infrared temperature measurement with the
measurements made with K-type probe, since (because of the totally
different nature of the two methods) the obtained values may differ
remarkably
Measurement with the K-type probe can be used in situations where IR
measurement cannot be used (e.g.: measurement of shiny/bright surfaces
such as glass and plexiglas)
1. Open the protection cap of K-type input terminal (see Fig. 1 – part 8) and connect the
K-type probe respecting the indicated polarities (see Fig. 5)
