device. Keep all safety signs, stickers and labels in legible
condition.
• Do not open the device with a tool.
• Observe the storage and operating conditions (see chapter
Technical data).
Intended use
This device is exclusively intended for measuring temperature
by means of an infrared sensor in the measuring range
specified in the technical data. People who use this device must
have read and understood the operating manual, especially the
Safety chapter.
Improper use
The device must not be used in potentially explosive
atmospheres. It must not be directed at people. Trotec accepts

Personnel qualifications
People who use this device must:
• be aware of the dangers that occur when working with
laser measuring devices.
• have read and understood the operating manual, especially
the Safety chapter.
Residual risks
Danger!
Class 2 laser radiation.
Lasers of class 2 only radiate in the visible range and
during continuous wave operation (lasting beam) no
more than 1 milliwatt (mW) of output will be emitted.
Looking directly into the laser beam for a longer period
of time (more than 0.25seconds) can cause damage to
the retina.
Avoid looking directly into the laser beam. Never look
into the laser beam using optical aides. Do not
suppress the winking reflex when looking into the laser
beam unintentionally. Never point the laser beam at
people or animals.
Danger!
Keep a sufficient distance from heat sources.
Danger!
Do not leave the packaging lying around. Children may
use it as a dangerous toy.
Danger!
The device is not a toy and does not belong in the
hands of children.
Danger!
Dangers can occur at the device when it is used by
untrained people in an unprofessional or improper way!
Observe the personnel qualifications!
Caution!
To prevent damages to the device, do not expose it to
extreme temperatures, extreme humidity or moisture.
Caution!
Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents to clean the
device.

Device description
The pyrometer BP17 uses an infrared sensor to measure
surface temperatures without contact. An integrated laser
pointer serves for the determination of the measuring spot.
For temperature measurements sensitivity levels of 1 °C, 3
and 5 °C can be preselected – depending on a reference
temperature. Exceeding or falling below this preselected
threshold is indicated by an acoustic and visual alarm function.
The display can be illuminated as needed.
An automatic switch-off saves the battery.
