LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Each Fluke product is warranted to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service. The warranty period is two years and begins on the date of shipment. Parts, product repairs, and services are warranted for 90 days. This warranty extends only to the original buyer or end-user customer of a Fluke authorized reseller, and does not apply to fuses, disposable batteries, or to any product which, in Fluke's opinion, has been misused, altered, neglected, contaminated, or damaged by accident or abnormal conditions of operation or handling. Fluke warrants that software will operate substantially in accordance with its functional specifications for 90 days and that it has been properly recorded on non-defective media. Fluke does not warrant that software will be error free or operate without interruption.
Fluke authorized resellers shall extend this warranty on new and unused products to end-user customers only but have no authority to extend a greater or different warranty on behalf of Fluke. Warranty support is available only if product is purchased through a Fluke authorized sales outlet or Buyer has paid the applicable international price. Fluke reserves the right to invoice Buyer for importation costs of repair/replacement parts when product purchased in one country is submitted for repair in another country.
Fluke's warranty obligation is limited, at Fluke's option, to refund of the purchase price, free of charge repair, or replacement of a defective product which is returned to a Fluke authorized service center within the warranty period.
To obtain warranty service, contact your nearest Fluke authorized service center to obtain return authorization information, then send the product to that service center, with a description of the difficulty, postage and insurance prepaid (FOB Destination). Fluke assumes no risk for damage in transit. Following warranty repair, the product will be returned to Buyer, transportation prepaid (FOB Destination). If Fluke determines that failure was caused by neglect, misuse, contamination, alteration, accident, or abnormal condition of operation or handling, including overvoltage failures caused by use outside the product’s specified rating, or normal wear and tear of mechanical components, Fluke will provide an estimate of repair costs and obtain authorization before commencing the work. Following repair, the product will be returned to the Buyer transportation prepaid and the Buyer will be billed for the repair and return transportation charges (FOB Shipping Point).

Basic Operation

Turn On and Off the Product

Before you use the Product for the first time, charge the battery for a minimum of 1.5 hours. See
Charge Batteries.
To turn on or turn off the Product, push and hold
the display off, push
There is no visible way to tell if only the display is off or if the Product is off. To maximize the life of the battery, use the LCD Time Out and Power Off features. See Table 9 for more information about how to set these features.
All thermal imagers need sufficient warm-up time for accurate temperature measurements and best image quality. Warm-up time can vary by model and environmental conditions. Although most imagers are fully warmed up in 3 minutes to 5 minutes, wait a minimum of 10 minutes if the most accurate temperature measurement is important to your application. When you move an imager between environments with large differences in ambient temperature, allow for additional adjustment time.

Emissivity Adjustment

All objects radiate infrared energy. The actual surface temperature and emissivity of the target affects the quantity of energy radiated. The Imager senses the infrared energy from the surface of the target and uses the data to calculate an estimated temperature value. Many common materials such as wood, water, skin, cloth, and painted surfaces, including metal, radiate energy well and have a high emissivity factor of with a high emissivity.
Shiny surfaces or unpainted metals do not radiate energy well and have a low emissivity factor of <0.60. For the Imager to calculate a more accurate estimate of the actual temperature of targets with a low emissivity, adjust the emissivity setting.
To prevent personal injury, see emissivity information for actual temperatures. Reflective objects result in lower than actual temperature measurements. These objects pose a burn hazard.
Set emissivity as a direct value or from a list of emissivity values for some common materials. If the emissivity value is <0.60, a caution shows on the display.
≥90 % (or 0.90). The Imager measures temperatures accurately on targets
W Warning
Note
<
Surfaces with an emissivity of temperatures. The lower the emissivity is the greater the potential of error is when the Imager calculates the temperature measurement because more of the energy reaching the camera is specified as background temperature. This is also true even when adjustments to the emissivity and reflected background adjustments are performed properly.
0.60 make it difficult to determine reliable and consistent actual

Transmissivity

When you do infrared inspections through IR windows, not all of the infrared energy emitted from the target is transmitted through the optical material in the window. If you know the transmission percentage of the window, adjust the transmission percentage in the Imager or in Fluke Connect desktop software to improve the accuracy of the measurement.
When you do not do infrared inspections through an IR window, set Transmissivity to 100 % to disable the correction percentage.
