Don’t use abrasives or sol-vents on this instrumentNotesHow it WorksThis REED Infrared Thermometer measures the surface temperature of anobject. The unit’s optics sense emitted, reflected, and transmitted energywhich is collected and focused onto a detector. The unit’s electronicstranslate the information into a temperature reading which is displayed onthe unit. In units with a laser, the laser is used for aiming purposes only.Field of ViewMake sure that the target is larger than the unit’s spot size. The smallerthe target, the closer you should be to it. When accuracy is critical, makesure the target is at least twice as large as the spot size.Distance & Spot SizeAs the distance (D) from the object increases, the spot size (S) of the areameasured by the unit becomes larger. See Graphic on Page 4.Locating a Hot SpotTo find a hot spot aim the thermometer outside the area of interest, thenscan across with an up and down motion until you locate hot spot.EmissivityEmissivity is a term used to describe the energy-emitting characteristics ofmaterials. Most (90% of typical applications) organic materials and paintedor oxidized surfaces have an emissivity of 0.95 (pre-set in the unit).Inaccurate readings will result from measuring shiny or polished metalsurfaces. To compensate, cover the surface to be measured with maskingtape or flat black paint. Allow time for the tape to reach the sametemperature as the material underneath it. Measure the temperature of thetape or painted surface.1.888.610.7664info@REED-Direct.com REED-Direct.com
