3.19 Non-Contact AC Voltage Detector (100 to 1000V AC)
: Risk of Electrocution. Before use, always test the voltage detector on a known live circuit to verify proper operation.
: Insulation type and thickness, distance from the source, and other factors may affect operation. Always verify live voltage using other methods before working on electrical circuits.
• The non-contact voltage detector operates when the meter is set to any measuring function. The detector does not operate when Auto Power Off turns the meter off or when the rotary function switch is set to the off position.
• Slowly move the detector probe closer to the conductor being tested.
• If AC voltage within the specified range is present, the indicator light will illuminate.
NOTES: The detector is designed with high sensitivity. Static electricity and other sources of electrical energy may randomly activate the detector. This is normal operation. The detector only activates the indicator light when AC voltage is present. It does not indicate the voltage level on the LCD.

4.2 Using the thermal imager
For basic operation, follow these steps:
1. Set the function switch to any position.
2. Press the “IR” button to switch ON the thermal imager. Target the object with the thermal imager lens.
3. The display will show the temperature measurement in the upper left hand corner for the targeted area along with the currently selected emissivity value.
4. In thermal imaging mode, the laser pointer and display cross hairs can be used to assist in targeting. These tools can be switched ON or OFF in the Setting menu.
5. In Thermal imaging mode, the highest temperature will be auto marked by a red cross and the lowest temperature will be auto marked by a blue cross. This can be switched ON or OFF in the Setting menu.
6. In Thermal imaging mode, the meter continues to operate normally as a multimeter, allowing any of the electrical functions to be used.
7. Press the HOLD button to hold the thermal image frame, then press and hold the HOLD button. You will capture the screen and save a bitmap with measurement data to the SD card. The saved bitmap can be analysed later by the PC software or smartphone APPs.
8. The thermal imager’s FOV (Field of view) is 21 x 21 degrees.
9. FOV is the largest area that your imager can see at a set distance.
10. The following chart lists the horizontal lFOV, vertical FOV and IFOV for lens:
Focal length
Horizontal FOV
Vertical FOV
IFOV
7.5 mm
21 °
21 °
4.53 mrad
IFOV (Instantaneous Field of View) is the smallest detail within the FOV that can be detected or seen at a set distance. The unit is rad. The formula is:
IFOV = ( Pixel Size )/ ( Lens focal length )
D:S
theoretical
( = 1/ IFOV
theoretical
) is the calculated spot size based on the pixel size of the thermal
imager detector array and lens focal length. Example: If the thermal imager uses a 9 mm lens because the pixel size of the detector is 34µm,
horizontal FOV is 21°, vertical FOV is 21°, the IFOV is 34µm/7.5mm = 4.53mrad; D:S
theoretical
( = 1/ IFOV
theoretical
) = 220:1
D:S ( = 1/ IFOV ) is the spot size needed to provide an accurate temperature measure. Typically, D:S
measure
is 2 to 3 times smaller than D:S
theoretical
, which means the temperature measurement area of the target need to be 2 to 3 times larger than that determined by the calculated theoretical D:S.

9 Warranty
You can read our warranty terms in our General Business Terms which you can find here:
https://www.pce-instruments.com/english/terms.
10 Disposal
For the disposal of batteries in the EU, the 2006/66/EC directive of the European Parliament applies. Due to the contained pollutants, batteries must not be disposed of as household waste. They must be given to collection points designed for that purpose.
In order to comply with the EU directive 2012/19/EU we take our devices back. We either re-use them or give them to a recycling company which disposes of the devices in line with law.
For countries outside the EU, batteries and devices should be disposed of in accordance with your local waste regulations.
If you have any questions, please contact PCE Instruments.
