ADA INSTRUMENTS TemPro 700 Infrared Thermometer

Review

TemPro 700 is IR Thermometer for non-contact temperature measurements at the touch of button. The built-in laser pointer increases target accuracy while the backlight LCD and handy push-buttons combine for convenient, ergonomic operation.
TemPro 700 can be used to measure the temperature of objects’ surface that is improper to be measured by traditional (contact) thermometer (such as moving object, the surface with electricity current or the objects which are uneasy to be touched).

Measurement considerations

Holding the meter by its handle, point the IR Sensor toward the object whose temperature is to be measured. The meter automatically compensates for temperature deviations from ambient temperature.
Infrared thermometers measure the surface temperature of an object. The unit’s optics sense emitted, reflected, and transmitted energy, which is collected and focused onto detector. The unit’s electronics translate the information into a temperature reading, which is displayed on the unit. The laser is used for aiming purposes only.

Safety requirements

Inaccurate readings will result from measuring shiny or polished metal surfaces (stainless steel, aluminium, etc.). To compensate, cover the measuring surface with masking tape or flat black paint. Allow time for the tape to reach the same temperature as the material under it. Measure the temperature of the tape or painted surface. The unit cannot measure through transparent surfaces such as glass. It will measure the surface temperature of the glass instead.
Steam, dust, smoke, etc., can prevent accurate measurement by obstructing the unit’s optics. Make sure that the target is larger than the unit’s spot size. The smaller the target, the closer you should be to it. When accuracy is critical, make sure the target is at least twice as large as the spot size.

Operation

Preparation before operation
Read the operating manual before use the instrument. Take the instrument out of case. Open battery cover and put 9V battery.

Thermometer On/Off
Pull and hold the trigger (9) to turn the meter on and begin testing. The display will light if the battery is good. Replace the battery if the display does not light. The meter will automatically power down after approximately 20 seconds after the trigger is released.

°C/°F
Open battery compartment (10) and push the slide switch for conversion.

EMS adjustment
To select the emissivity (EMS) press “Up/Down” button (4). To store this value press button (3).

Laser pointer
Laser pointer is on when you turn on the unit. To turn off the laser pointer, press button (1) LASER/BACKLIT.

Backlight
Backlight is on when you turn on the unit. To turn off the backlight, press button (1) LASER/BACKLIT.

MODE button function
Press the “MODE” (2) button. It allows you to access the set state: MAX, MIN, DIF, AVG, HAL, LAL, STO. Choose the required mode and press button SET

Measuring modes

MAX= maximum. Maximum value of measurement.
MIN=minimum. Minimum value of measurement.
DIF= difference. Difference value of measurement.
AVG= average, Average value of measurement.

HAL= High alarm. Please adjust high alarm value by pressing “Up/Down” button (4). To confirm the value press button SET (3).
If the measured temperature is higher the value you’ve adjusted, symbol K will be shown on the display and you will hear a sound.

LAL= Low alarm. Please adjust low alarm value by pressing “Up/Down” button (4). To confirm the value press button SET (3).
If the measured temperature is higher the value you’ve adjusted, symbol J will be shown on the display and you will hear a sound.

STO- Data storage. To store data choose the mode STO, press the button SET (3). then “1—” memory unit will be shown. Enter measured data by pressing button 5 (STO/CAL). 12 groups memory unit are available.

Measurement operation
Hold the meter by its handle grip and point it towards the surface to be measured. Pull and hold the trigger (9) to turn the meter on and begin testing. Release the trigger (9) and HOLD display icon will appear on display indicating that the reading is being held.

Distance to spot size

When take measurement, pay attention to the Distance to Spot Size. As the Distance (D) from the target surface increases, the spot size (S) of the area measured by the unit becomes larger. The Distance to Spot size of the unit is 12:1. This unit is equipped with a laser, which is used for aiming.

Field of view
Make sure the target is larger than the unit’s spot size. The smaller the target the closer measure distance. When accuracy is critical, make sure the target is at least twice as large as the spot size.

Maintenance

The maintenance of the thermometer includes the replacement of power supply, cleaning the unit with dry cloth and also debugging. Periodically, one time per year it is necessary to check settings in authorized service center.
