Infrared Thermometers
Introduction
The 566 and 568 Infrared Thermometers (“the thermometers”) 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 contact-temperature measurement via K-
type thermocouple. See the Users Manual CD for complete operating instructions.
Safety Information
WWarning
A Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazards
to the user. To avoid personal injury, follow these guidelines:
• * Do not point laser directly at eye or indirectly off
reflective surfaces.
• Replace the batteries as soon as the low-battery indicator
appears.
• Do not use the thermometer if it operates abnormally.
Protection may be impaired. When in doubt, have the
thermometer serviced.
• Do not operate the thermometer around explosive gas,
vapor, or dust.
• Do not connect the optional external probe to live
electrical circuits.
