1. SAFETY
•
Use extreme caution when the laser beam is turned on.
•
Do not let the beam enter your eye, another person's
eye or the eye of an animal.
•
Be careful no to let the beam on a reflective surface strike
your eye.
•
Do not allow the laser light beam impinge on any gas which
can explode.

Distance & Spot Size
As the distance (D) from the object increases, the spot size (S)
of the area measured by the unit becomes larger. See:
Fig: 1.
•
Locating a hot Spot
To find a hot spot aim the thermometer outside the area of
interest, then scan across with an up and down motion until you
locate hot spot.
• Reminders
Not recommended for use in measuring shiny or polished
metal surfaces ( stainless steel, aluminum, etc.).See
Emissivity
The unit cannot measure through transparent surfaces such
as glass. It will measure the surface temperature of the glass
instead.
Steam, dust, smoke, etc., Can prevent accurate
measurement by obstructing the unit's optics.
• Emissivity
Emissivity is a term used to describe the energy-emitting
characteristics of materials.
2. DISTANCE & SPOT SIZE
As the distance (D) from the object increases, the spot size (S) of
the area measured by the unit becomes larger. The relationship
between distance and spot size for each unit is listed below. The
focal point for each unit is 914mm (36”). The spot sizes indicate
90% encircled energy.
