Using the Handheld Infrared Thermometer 2

Static Surface Scan – Measures the temperature across a static surface:

1.Aim the thermometer at a starting point and pull the trigger. Press the LOCK key to lock the trigger.

2.If necessary, adjust the emissivity.

3.Slowly move the thermometer so that the line of sight sweeps across the surface. The thermometer measures the temperature at each point on the surface.

4.To record the temperature profile across the surface, connect the IR thermometer to a strip chart recorder. Refer to Figure

2-11 for details. The IR thermometer provides an analog output of 1mV/degree. (0.5 mV/Deg on OS524E)

5.After all the data has been taken, press the LOCK key to unlock the trigger.

2.Pull the trigger and press the LOCK key to lock the trigger.

3.If necessary, adjust the emissivity. The thermometer is now set up for measuring the temperature of a moving surface.

4.To record the temperature profile of the moving surface, connect the IR thermometer to a strip chart recorder. Refer to Figure 2-11 for details.

5.After all data is taken, press the LOCK key to unlock the trigger.

Fixed Point Monitoring Over Time - Monitors the temperature at a fixed point over time:

NOTE

It is recommended that you use the ac adapter for long term measurement of temperature.
