Customer Service

Thank you for purchasing our Infrared Thermometer.
Please read this instruction manual carefully before using
to ensure the correct usage of this device.
Please keep this instruction manual for future reference.

ATTENTION
Warning- This unit emits a laser light when used. Please do not point the laser light directly tohuman or animal eye.
- Do not look directly at the laser light.
- When measuring objects with mirrorized or reflective surfaces, avoid looking directlyat the reflection of the laser light.
- Do not aim or point the laser light at inflammable gases or objects.
Caution- Do not use this device near machines that emit strong electromagnetic fields orobjects that store static electricity.
- Do not use this device in places where corrosive or explosive gases are present.
This may cause damage or explosion of the device.
- Do not use or store this device where it can be exposed to direct sunlight, dust, hightemperature and high humidity.
- Do not exp ose the lens directly to sunlight or strong light, this may cause damage tothe sensor.
- Dirt, stain, scratch, or foreign objects on the lens may cause error or wrong
measurement. Make sure that objects being measures does not come into contact
with the lense.
- Do not drop or subject this device to strong impact.
- Do not use or store this device where it will be exposed to water or in places with wetconditions.
- See the battery case markings to ensure that the battery is properly installed.
- Remove the battery when the device will not be used for a long period of time.
- Do not attempt to disassemble or modify this device.
- The temperature of the user's hands may affect or influence the measurement of thedevice, avoid touching or holding the head (sensor part) of the device.
- In cases where there is a sudden change of temperature of the environment wherethe device is being used (from a hot place to a cold place or from a cold place to a hotplace), do not operate the unit and leave the device as is for approx. 20 mins. until thetemperature of the devices fully adjusts to the new environment before using thedevice.
- When the device is brought from a cold place to a hot place, dew may form on thelens, in this case, leave as is the device for approx. 10 min. or until the dew iscompletely disappeared on the lens.
- In case the surface of the object to be measured is frosted, wipe out the frost fromthe surface before measuring.
- In case the surface of the object to be measured reflects a strong light, stick a matteblack colored masking tape on the surface to be measured.

1. Functions

a. Measuring Procedure1.) Press the trigger button.
2.) Aim the device at the object being measured.
3.) Then, the temperature reading will be displayed.
b. Auto Power Off
This unit will automatically switch off if none of the buttons are pressed for approx. 8seconds. To measure again, simply pull the trigger button.
c. Power
The device will be switched on when the trigger button is pulled.
d. Laser Sight
The laser sight will be activated when the trigger button is pulled when making
measurement. It will be indicated by a " " symbol on the upper left corner of thedisplay.
e. Backlight
The backlight is activated automatically when the trigger button is pulled when
making measurement.
f. Battery Replacement
The " - + " symbol on the display indicates a low battery condition. Replace thebattery when this occurs. Remove the cover of the battery compartment. Replace
the old battery with a new one. After installing new battery, replace the cover.
* The instrument cannot measure accurately after low battery indicator isdisplayed. Please replace the battery immediately.
g. Storage
For proper storage, avoid places where the device can be exposed to direct sunlight,
high humidity, high temperature, vibration and shock, dust, rust, corrosion, etc.
Remove battery when the device will not be used for a long period of time.

2. Measurement Theory- Energy is emitted by all objects in proportion to its temperature. The hotter theobject, the greater energy it emits. This permits the measurement of the object's
temperature by measuring the emitted energy, particulary the infrared portion of thespectrum of the emitted radiation.
- Infrared radiation is part of the electromagnetic waves spectrum, which is easilytransmitted through the atmosphere and be easily absorbed by any solid object. An
infrared thermometer can absorb this emitted infrared energy from any object anduse it to accurately measure an object's temperature.
- The ratio of the infrared energy radiated by an object at a given temperature to theenergy emitted by a perfect radiator, or Blackbody, at the same temperature is called
the Emissivity. The emissivity of a blackbody is 1.00. All values of emissivity fall
between 0.00 and 1.00. Thus, depending on the object's material and/or surface, theemissivity value varies. The TC-6000 has a fixed emissivity setting of 0.95, which
covers 90% of typical objects.
