Operation

Measuring air velocity and air flow (single point)

  1. Press the POWER button and turn meter on. Meter will full display when first power on.
  2. Unit is ready for use when LCD display shows “VEL” or “FLOW” on the middle and temperature in upper left corner.

Continuous Moving Average
The meter displays continuous moving average for up to 10 hours.

  1. Power unit on.
  2. Place sensor in front of air flow source.
  3. Press MAX/MIN key and unit begin to display moving average. The meter will record the reading every second.

MAX/MIN/AVG reading on a single point
To obtain MAX/MIN/AVG readings on a single point.

  1. Power unit on.
  2. Place sensor in front of air flow source.
  3. Press MAX/MIN/AVG key. The unit will begin to record readings.
  4. Press HOLD prior to moving
  5. To clear the current MAX, MIN and AVG readings, press and hold MAX/MIN key until beeps twice, then release.

Air velocity average for multi points (up to 20 points)

  1. Power unit on.
  2. Hold AVG key until unit beeps twice, then release. The “0” will display at upper right corner and “AVG” will display al lower right corner.
  3. Place sensor in front of air flow source.
  4. To record a measurement, press the AVG button (you will hear a beep). In the upper right corner, the number changes depending on the measurement values already saved. The measured value is now saved in the internal memory and the device displays the average value. The average value is determined from all recorded measurement values and displayed for approx. 3 seconds after each additional recorded value. Repeat step 4 until all the desired points have been measured. This device can record up to 20 points at a time. In AVG mode, press and hold the AVG button for about three seconds to return, and press the AREA button to clear the multi-point memory. After all measurement values have been recorded, the data can be processed and evaluated using the enclosed software.
  5. The Meter is now ready to measure air flow average for multipoints.

Area set

  1. Power unit on.
  2. Press UNITS key and select CFM or CMM.
  3. Hold AREA key until beeps twice, the “AREA” will display and enter area set mode.
  4. Press the MAX/MIN key to shift the radix point.
  5. Press the HOLD key to shift the flash position.
  6. Press the UNITS key to adjust digit which is flash.

NOTES
The CFM/CMM measurement is for measuring the air flow volume of a certain area. For example: Measuring air flow volume of an air-condition Set the area with value of the air output area of the air condition. During measurement, the PeakTech® 5060 will calculate and show automatically the air-flow volume in reference to the set area value in the display.

To obtain remote surface temperature using infrared
thermometer Press and hold IR + Laser Pointer button to measure remote surface temperature. In this way, LCD display will show temperature reading of surface where laser being point. Once you release the button, the displayed reading will return to current airflow in 6 seconds but the “MAX”, “MIN” and “HOLD” ON.

Disable Auto Power Off
The meter will turn off automatically after 15 minutes of not pressing any buttons. Keep the IRT button pressed before turning on the meter; the Automatic Power Off feature will be disabled. Note that when in the “CFM/CMM” or “Average” mode, the Automatic Power Off feature is disabled.

Battery replacement
When appears on the LCD, the 9 V battery must be replaced. Remove the meter’s rubber protective jacket, use a flat blade screwdriver to open the rear battery compartment and replace the 9 V battery. Finally, close the battery compartment and replace the jacket.

Safety

Laser Classification
This device produces a visible laser beam, which emerges from the front of the instrument.

Laser Class 2 products
Use extreme caution when the laser beam is turned on, do not let the beam enter your eye, another person’s eye, or the eye of an animal. Be careful no to let the beam on a reflective surface strike your eye. Do not allow the laser light beam to impinge on any gas which can explode.
