Residual risks

Warning of laser radiation Laser class2, Pmax.: <1mW, λ: 650nm,
EN60825-1:2014
Do not look directly into the laser beam or the opening from which it emerges. Never point the laser beam at people, animals or reflective surfaces. Even brief eye contact can lead to eye damage. Examining the laser output aperture by use of optical instruments (e.g. magnifying glass, magnifiers and the like) entails the risk of eye damage. When working with a laser of class2, observe the national regulations on wearing eye protection.
Warning
Risk of suffocation! Do not leave the packaging lying around. Children may use it as a dangerous toy.
Warning
The device is not a toy and does not belong in the hands of children.

Information about the device

Device description

The dew point scanner BP25 uses an infrared and humidity sensor to measure surface temperatures as well as air temperature and humidity without contact. An integrated dual laser serves for the determination of the measuring spot diameter.
The dew point is detected from these values. If the temperature in one part of the room is at or below the dew point, then the humidity in the air condenses. This can cause mould to form. Using the dew point scanner BP25 to measure the dew point, you can accurately pinpoint areas at risk of mould formation or poor insulation.
The risk of condensation forming at the measuring spot is indicated both by an acoustic alarm function and a changed display colour.
When not in use, an automatic switch-off saves the battery.
Measuring principle
The device measures the temperature by means of an infrared sensor. Important factors playing a role in the temperature measurement are the measuring spot diameter and the emissivity of the surface to be measured, which is set to the fixed value of 0.95 here.
Measuring spot
Observe the ratio of the distance to the measuring spot diameter. The larger the distance to the object, the larger the measuring spot diameter and hence, the less precise the measured result. The on-demand dual laser indicates the approximate diameter of the measuring spot, which is used by the device to calculate an average temperature. Consequently, it is a mere aiming aid and not intended for the actual temperature measurement. The smaller the measuring spot, the more precise is the measured result.
Warning
Dangers can occur at the device when it is used by untrained people in an unprofessional or improper way! Observe the personnel qualifications!
Caution
Keep a sufficient distance from heat sources.
Note
To prevent damages to the device, do not expose it to extreme temperatures, extreme humidity or moisture.
Note
Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents to clean the device.
