9. Measurement Mode

9.1 Mildew Alarm Mode
After powering on the meter, press the MODE key to switch to the
Mildew alarm mode, the LCD will display as below fig. 1. Press and
hold the trigger button, the LCD will display the current measuring
ambient humidity, ambient temperature, dew point temperature
and surface temperature. The scanned surface temperature will
be compared with the dew point temperature automatically to
determine whether the target object is mildewed. The LED color
will turn Green if it’s not mildewed. The LED color will turn Red if
it’s already been mildewed. The LED color will turn Yellow if it’s on
the verge of mildew.
(Fig. 1)

9.2 Temperature Difference Alarm Mode
After powering on the meter, press MODE key to switch to the
Temperature difference alarm mode, the LCD will display as below
fig. 2. Press and hold the trigger button, the LCD will display the
current measuring ambient temperature and surface temperature.
The scanned surface temperature will be compared with the
ambient temperature automatically to determine whether the
target object is working properly. The LED color will turn Green if
the scanned surface temperature is close to the ambient
temperature. The LED color will turn Red if the scanned surface
temperature is above around 5higher or lower than the
ambient temperature. The LED color will turn Yellow if the
scanned surface temperature is above around 3℃higher or lower
than the ambient temperature.

9.3 Environment Detection Mode
After powering on the meter, press MODE key to switch to the
Environment detection mode, the LCD will display as below fig. 3.
Press and hold the trigger button, the LCD will display the current
measuring ambient humidity, ambient temperature, dew point
temperature and wet-bulb temperature simultaneously.
(Fig. 3)
9.4 K-type Temperature Mode
After powering on the meter, press MODE key to switch to the
K-type temperature mode, the LCD will display as below fig. 4.
Insert a K-type thermocouple probe into the probe socket. Press
and hold the trigger button, the LCD will display the current

measuring ambient temperature, K-type temperature and surface
temperature simultaneously.

9.5 Emissivity Set
After power on the meter, press MODE key to switch to the
Emissivity set mode, the LCD will display as below fig. 5. In the
emissivity adjustment mode, press key to increase the value
and press key to decrease the value.

9.6 UV light

10. Emissivity

The UV light could be used for fluorescent leak detection to find
all system leaks quickly and easily.
Fluorescent leak detection:Add or inject the fluorescent agent
into the system and let it circulate with host fluid. Once circulation
is completed, use UV light to inspect for leak sites. The agent will
be fluorescent by the UV light, so that we can locate the leak sites.
The emissivity of the surface of a material is its effectiveness in
emitting energy as thermal radiation. It is the ratio of the thermal
radiation from a surface to the radiation from an ideal black
surface at the same temperature. The ratio varies from 0 to 1. The
bigger the ratio, the stronger the thermal radiation is from the
surface. The emissivity of surface of most materials is between
0.85~0.98. The default emissivity of this unit is set at 0.95;
however, it can be adjustable. Before measuring, please adjust it
to the suitable emissivity according to below table.

11. Notes

(1) Working principle
The infrared thermometer is designed for measuring
The optical sensor can emit, reflect and transmit energy,
The laser is used for aiming the target object only.
The object under test should be larger than the spot size
The smaller the target object is, the closer the meter
When accuracy is critical, make sure the target is at least
surface temperature of an object.

(3) Distance& Spot Size
As distance (D) from the object increases, the spot size (S) of
the area measured by the unit becomes larger.
