InfraRed Thermometer

with Laser Pointer

MODEL IR400

IR400-EU-EN-V1.1-6/3

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Model IR400 IR Thermometer. The IR400 is capable of

non-contact (infrared) temperature measurements at the touch of a button. The built-in laser pointer

increases target accuracy while the backlit LCD and handy push-buttons combine for convenient,

ergonomic operation. This meter is shipped fully tested and calibrated and, with proper use, will

provide years of reliable service.

Safety

•Use extreme caution when the laser pointer beam is on

•Do not point the beam toward anyone's eye or allow the beam

to strike the eye from a reflective surface

•Do not use the laser near explosive gases or in other

potentially explosive areas

Operating Instructions

Basic IR Measurements

1. Hold the meter by its handle and point it toward the surface to be measured.

2. Pull and hold the trigger to turn the meter on and begin testing. The temperature reading, the

flashing ‘SCAN’ icon, the unit of measure, and € = 0.95 will appear.

3. Release the Trigger and the reading will hold for approximately 10 seconds (HOLD will appear

on the LCD) after which the meter will automatically shut off..

Laser Pointer

1. When the trigger is pressed, the laser pointer will turn on and identify the spot being measured.

The icon on the display indicates that the pointer is on.

2. To turn the laser pointer off, press the button while scanning. Press the button again to

turn the pointer back on.

MAX - MIN

The Max / Min feature provides a means to display the highest (MAX) or lowest (MIN) temperature

measured during a scan.

1. While the trigger is pressed, press the MAX/MIN button. The “MAX” icon will appear and the

maximum measured temperature will appear in the display. The displayed temperature will not

change until a higher temperature is measured.

2. Press the MAX/MIN button again and the “MIN” icon will appear. The minimum temperature

only will be displayed

3. Press the MAX/MIN button again to return to a real time display.

Backlight

When the meter is on, press the backlight button to turn the backlight on. Press the button again

to turn the backlight off.

Note: Constant use of the backlight feature will reduce battery life.

Over-Range Indication

If the temperature measurement exceeds the specified temperature range, the thermometer will

display “HI” or “LO” in place of a temperature reading.

Field of View

The meter’s field of view is 8:1. For example, if the meter is 8 inches from the target (spot), the

diameter of the target must be at least 1 inch. Other distances are shown in the field of view

diagram. Note that measurements should normally be made as close as possible to the device

under test. The meter can measure from moderate distances but the measurement may be affected

by external sources of light. In addition, the spot size may be so large that it encompasses surface

areas not intended to be measured.

Battery Replacement

When the battery symbol appears in the display, replace the meter’s 9V

battery. The battery compartment is located behind the panel that surrounds the

meter’s trigger. The panel can be pried open near the trigger and folded down as

shown in the diagram. Replace the 9V battery and close the battery compartment

cover.

You, as the end user, are legally bound (EU Battery ordinance) to

return all used batteries, disposal in the household garbage is

prohibited! You can hand over your used batteries / accumulators at

collection points in your community or wherever batteries / accumulators

are sold!

Disposal: Follow the valid legal stipulations in respect of the disposal of

the device at the end of its lifecycle

IR Measurement Notes

1. The object under test should be larger than the spot (target) size calculated by the field of view

diagram (printed on the side of the meter and in this guide).

2. Before measuring, be sure to clean surfaces that are covered with frost, oil, grime, etc.

3. If an object's surface is highly reflective, apply masking tape or flat black paint to the surface

before measuring. Allow time for the paint or tape to adjust to the temperature of the surface it is

covering.

4. Measurements can not be made through transparent surfaces such as glass. The surface

temperature of the glass will be measured.

5. Steam, dust, smoke, etc. can obscure measurements.

6. The meter automatically compensates for deviations in ambient temperature. However, it can

take up to 30 minutes for the meter to adjust to extremely wide changes.

7. To find a hot spot, aim the meter outside the area of interest then scan across (in an up and

down motion) until the hot spot is located.

Emissivity and IR Measurement Theory

IR Thermometers measure the surface temperature of an object. The thermometer’s optics sense

emitted, reflected, and transmitted energy. The thermometer’s electronics translate the information

into a temperature reading which is then displayed on the LCD.

The amount of IR energy emitted by an object is proportional to an object's temperature and its

ability to emit energy. This ability is known as emissivity and is based upon the material of the object

and its surface finish. Emissivity values range from 0.1 for a very reflective object to 1.00 for a flat

black finish. For the Model IR400, the emissivity is set to 0.95 which is correct for 90% of typical IR

measurement applications.
