Black & Decker TLD100 manual Maintenance, Protecting the environment, Examples of Use, Batteries

Examples of Use:

uScan around a light fixture to determine if ceiling insulation was removed during installation.

uScan along window and door sills to see where to add weather-stripping.

uScan where a wall and the floor meet to find drafts that should be caulked.

uScan an attic door to see if you need to add insulation.

Note: Shiny or polished surfaces can give inaccurate readings. To compensate for this, cover the surface with masking tape or flat colored paint. When the tape or paint reaches the same temperature as the target underneath, measure the temperature of the item.

Note: The thermometer cannot measure through transparent surfaces such as glass or plastic. It will measure the surface temperature instead.

Note: Steam, dust, smoke, and other optical obstructions can prevent accurate measurement. Hold the thermometer back and at an angle for an accurate measurement.

Field of View (fig. E)

The Thermal Leak Detector measures temperature over an area that may be larger than the LED spot, especially if you are far away from the surface you are measuring. The diameter of the measured area is 1/6 the distance from the Detector. In other words, if you are 6 inches (152 mm) from the target, the Detector will measure the average temperature over a circle 1 inch (25mm) in diameter. As shown in the table below, the farther the distance from the target, the larger the measured area.

Position (fig. E)	13	14	15	16
Distance to target (mm)	152	305	457	610
Diameter of measurement	25	51	76	102
area (mm)

If you are just looking for hot and cold areas, it's OK if the scanned area is larger than your target. However, if you want to accurately measure the temperature of an object, move the Detector close so that the scanned area is about half the size of the object you want to measure.
