The Klein IR10 is a top - notch professional dual - targeting laser infrared thermometer. It comes with a custom pouch, a K - Type probe, and a battery. This thermometer can measure surface temperatures via IR emission and also bulk temperatures of air, gas, or liquids using the standard K - Type probe. The dual targeting lasers ensure more precise determination of the test area. With an optical resolution (Distance - to - Spot) of 20:1, it offers a wide measurement range from - 40 to 1200 - Degree Fahrenheit (- 40 to 650 - Degree Celsius) for both IR and K - Type probe. Its adjustable emissivity from 0.1 - 1.0 provides flexibility for various applications. The bright backlit display is great for low - light work. It has statistical parameters like max/min/avg/diff for measurement events. You can set user - definable high/low limits, and it will give audible and visual alarms when those limits are exceeded. It runs on one 9 - volt alkaline battery, with a battery life of about 8 hours of continuous use with the laser and backlight on. The soft - touch, over - mold housing can withstand a 9.9 - Foot (3 m) drop, and it has IP54 ingress protection for dust and water resistance. The 'Auto Power - Off' feature helps save and extend battery life. It also holds a U.S. patent D791,624.
Using the Klein IR10 is easy. First, insert the 9 - volt alkaline battery that comes with it. You can then choose to use the IR emission to measure surface temperatures or attach the K - Type probe for measuring bulk temperatures of air, gas, or liquids. When aiming at the target area, the dual targeting lasers will help you accurately determine the area you're testing. To change the settings like emissivity or temperature format, use the buttons on the device. Make sure to set your high and low limits according to your needs, and you'll get an audible and visual alarm if the measured temperature goes beyond those limits. For best results, use it in conditions where the ambient light isn't too bright or too dark, as the backlit display is designed for low - ambient lighting. When you're done using it, put it in the custom pouch provided to protect it. As for maintenance, keep it clean by wiping it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures, moisture, or dust. If you drop it, check for any visible damage before using it again. Also, when the battery is running low, replace it promptly to ensure proper functioning.
