■.Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the SUPCO infrared (IR)
thermometer and thermocouple meter. Please take a
few minutes to browse through this user manual before
you begin to operate the meter to ensure that you are
fully familiarized with how best to operate the meter as
accurately and safely as possible.
This meter combines two precision thermometers in
one unit: a noncontact infra-red thermometer and a
thermocouple thermometer.
This meter can match standard type K-type
thermocouple sensor.
WARNING！
Do not point laser directly at eye or
reflective surfaces.
1.1 Precautions safety measures
To get the best performance from this meter, please
read this user's manual carefully and observe the
detailed safety precautions.

1.1.1 During use
1. After abrupt ambient temperature changes, allow
instrument temperature to stabilize for 30 minutes
before taking measurements.
2. Do not expose thermometer to excessive ambient
temperatures.
3. Keep the thermometer clean.
1.1.2 Maintaining the product
l Do not measure in a high temperature, high
humidity locations.
l When not using the instrument for a long time,
please remove the battery and avoid storing in
high temperature and high humidity.

■ Emissivity and Field of View
Emissivity: Emissivity is a term used to describe the
energy emitting characteristics of a material. The
higher the emissivity value a material has, the more
infrared energy it will emit at a particular temperature.
Most organic materials range in emissivity between
0.85 and 0.98. This thermometer has a fixed
(non-adjustable) emissivity of 0.95. Measuring objects
with an emissivity of less than 0.95 will result in a lower
than actual temperature reading on the display. Be
aware of this characteristic when measuring low
emissivity objects (e.g. shiny, reflective metal objects).
An effective solution is that using the black adhesive
tape to cover the object surface, taking the
measurement when the adhesive tape’s temperature is
the same as the object.
Field of View: The distance to spot ratio for this
thermometer is 2:1. The ideal working range of the
noncontact thermometer is between 25mm and
- 11 -
250mm(1 and 10 inches). The field of view is a circular
measurement area approximately equal to the
distance from the target to the unit, divided by 2. To
ensure accurate measurements, the measurement
target must fill or exceed the field of view.
■Maintenance
1. CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
The meter may be wiped down with a wet sponge or
cloth using a mild, water based detergent.
NOTE:
This unit is not designed for complete submersion or
washing in water.
