OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

DOWNLOADING THE APP

The Klein Tools Thermal Imager app is required for functionality. The app is available for free from the App Store, or by scanning the QR code below.

CONNECTING YOUR DEVICE

Turn on your iOS device.
Insert the Lightning connector **2** directly into your device (FIG. G). NOTE: Fits phone cases up to 1/16″ (1.5 mm) thick. Phone cases thicker than 1/16″ (1.5 mm) may require removal of case for secure connection.
Connecting your device will automatically open the app, and a popup will ask for confirmation: Klein TI222 would like to communicate with the Klein Tools Thermal Imager for iOS Devices.” Tap “Allow” (FIG. H).

EMISSIVITY

Emissivity is a measure of the ability of a surface to emit thermal energy by radiation. Different types of surfaces (metals, masonry, wood, etc.) emit thermal energy through radiation at different efficiencies. Accordingly, these materials have different emissivity coefficients which must be considered in order to make accurate measurements with an infrared thermometer.

Emissivity on the TI222 may be adjusted from 0.01 to 0.99 to enable accurate measurement of the temperature of most types of materials. Generally speaking, shiny bright surfaces such as chrome, white boards, etc. exhibit lower emissivity than flat black materials.

For guidance only, the chart on the next page may be used to estimate emissivity for many different types of materials. However, the emissivity of surfaces is dependent upon many parameters such as surface finish, temperature, shape of the object, etc.

This chart should be used for guidance only.

Material	Emissivity
Asphalt	0.93
Red brick	0.93
Gray brick	0.75
Porcelain ceramic	0.92
Fired clay	0.91
Rough concrete	0.94
Cotton cloth	0.77
Smooth glass	0.92 – 0.94
Granite	0.45
Gravel	0.28
Smooth ice	0.97
Smooth white marble	0.56
Black paint	0.96
Hard rubber	0.94
Wood	0.80 – 0.90
Matte copper	0.22
Commercial sheet aluminum	0.09
Cold rolled steel	0.75 – 0.85

Find a comprehensive list of emissivity values in the app’s FAQ section or visit www.kleintools.com/emissivity.

CLEANING

Be sure unit is not connected to a device and wipe with a clean, dry lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

STORAGE

Do not expose to high temperatures or humidity. After a period of storage in extreme conditions exceeding the limits mentioned in the General Specifications section, allow unit to return to normal operating conditions before using.
