Introduction
The 561, 566 and 568 Infrared Thermometers (“the thermometers” or “the
Product”) are for non-contact temperature measurement. These thermometers determine an object’s surface temperature by measuring the amount of infrared energy radiated by the object’s surface. The thermometers also support contacttemperature measurement via K-type thermocouple.
Note that the Japanese models indicate Celsius only.

How the Thermometers Work
Infrared thermometers measure the surface temperature of an object. The thermometer’s optics sense emitted, reflected, and transmitted energy, which is collected and focused onto a detector. The unit’s electronics translate the signal into a temperature reading which the unit displays (see Figure 5).

Operating the Thermometer
Temperature Measurement
To measure temperature, point the thermometer at an object and pull the trigger.
You can use the laser pointer to help aim the thermometer. You may also insert the K-type thermocouple probe for contact measurement. Be sure to consider distance-to-spot size ratio and field of view (see “Distance and Spot Size” and
“Field of View”). The temperature appears on the display.
Note
The laser is used for aiming purposes only and is not related to temperature measurement.
The thermometer features an auto off function that automatically powers down the thermometer after 20 seconds of inactivity. To turn the thermometer on, pull the trigger.

Figure 8. Field of View
Emissivity
Emissivity describes the energy-emitting characteristics of materials. Most organic materials and painted or oxidized surfaces have an emissivity of approximately 0.95, the default setting for the thermometer.
To compensate for inaccurate readings that may result from measuring shiny metal surfaces, you can cover the surface to be measured with electrical tape or flat black paint (<148
°
C/300
°
F) with emissivity set to 0.95. Allow time for the tape or paint to reach the same temperature as the surface beneath it. Measure the temperature of the tape or painted surface.
If you cannot paint or use tape, then you can improve the accuracy of your measurements by either numerically adjusting emissivity or by using the
Emissivity Menu to access a table of some common materials. The thermometers have numerically adjustable emissivity from 0.10 to 1.00 that can be used in conjunction with the emissivities in Tables 3 and 4. Also, the thermometers have a built-in table of the most common materials that can be set from the Emissivity Menu. The built-in values are indicated in Tables 3 and 4.
HOLD
The display retains its last infrared measurement for twenty seconds when the trigger is released, with HOLD appearing on the display. With the probe inserted, the contact thermometer remains on. To freeze the infrared temperature when a probe is not inserted, release the trigger until HOLD appears on the display.

Usage
The general purpose bead probe is an alternative, for quick, accurate surface temperatures and air temperatures within ducts, vent temperatures.
Pipe clamp probes (2) are essential for tracking continuously changing temperature differentials on hydronic tubing and pipe loops, and good for quick, accurate refrigerant temperatures.
The insulation piercing probe provides a sharp tip to pierce pipe insulation and flat probe tip for good surface thermal contact, air temperatures within ducts, and vent temperatures.
Flexible Cuff Thermocouple Temperature Probe is a convenient way to attach a thermocouple to a pipe while keeping hands free.
The piercing probe is the most versatile option. Good for checking air temperature in ducts, surface temperature under carpets/pads, liquids, thermometer wells, vent temperatures, and for penetrating pipe insulation.
The tapered probe is a good general-purpose gas and surface probe, with a good length and low mass tip casing for faster reaction to surface and air temperatures.
