10.2 Cleaning the instrument
Only use weak, commercially available neutral/ household cleaning agents (e.g. washing­up liquid) to clean the instrument. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or solvent!
Wipe down the housing with a damp cloth (with detergent). Clean the IR lens carefully with a cotton bud dipped in water or medical alcohol.

12. Information on IR measurement
12.1 Measuring method
IR measurement is a visual measurement
Keep lenses clean. Do not carry out measurement with foggy lenses. Keep the measuring range (the range between the instrument and the measurement
object) free of obstacles. There must be no particles of dust or dirt, no humidity (rain, steam) and no gases.
IR measurement is a surface measurement
If there is dirt, dust, frost, etc. on the surface, only the outermost layer is measured, i.e. the dirt.
For vacuum-packed food, do not measure at air pockets. Where the values are critical, always measure separately with a contact thermometer.
Particularly in the food sector: measure core temperature with a penetration/immersion thermometer.
Adjustment time
If the ambient temperature changes (change of location, e.g. measurement indoors/outdoors), the instrument must be allowed to equalise for 15 minutes for infrared measurement.
12.2 Emissivity
Materials have various emission levels, i.e. they emit various amounts of electromagnetic radiation. The emissivity of the instrument has a default setting of 0.95. This is ideal for the measurement of non-metals (paper, ceramic, gypsum, wood, paints and varnishes), plastics and foodstuffs.
21
11. Questions and answers
13. Information on contact measurement22
Because of their low or non-uniform emission level, blank metals and metal oxides are only of limited use for IR measurement.
Coatings that increase the emission level, e.g. paint or emission adhesive (art. no. 0554 0051) must be applied to the measurement object. If this is not possible: measure using a contact thermometer.
Emissivity table for important materials (typical values)
12.3 Measuring range, distance
Depending on the distance of the measuring instrument from the measurement object, a specific measuring range is recorded.
Measuring lens (ratio of distance : measuring range)
In italics = laser Not in italics = measuring range
13. Information on contact measurement
Observe the minimum penetration depth for immersion/penetration probes: 10x probe diameter
Avoid using in aggressive acids or alkalis.
