5. he LCD The amount of IR energy emitted by an object is proportional to an object s temperature and its ability to emit energy This ability is known as emissivity and is based upon the material of the object and its surface finish Emissivity values range from 0 1 for a very reflective object to 1 00 for a flat black finish For the Model IR400 the emissivity is set to 0 95 which is correct for 90 of typical IR measurement applications 5 IR400 EU EN V1 1 6 3 Specifications Display Response time Over range indication Polarity Emissivity Field of view Diode Laser Spectral response Auto power off Operating temperature Storage temperature Relative humidity Power supply Weight Dimensions 3 1 2 digit 1999count LCD with backlighting Less than 1 second LCD will show HI LO Automatic no indication for positive polarity Minus sign for negative polarity 0 95 fixed value D S Approx 8 1 ratio D distance S spot Has 90 encircled energy at the focal point Output lt 1mW Wavelength 630 670nm Class 2 II Laser product 6 14um Automatic shut off after 10 seconds approx 0 C to 50 C 32 F to 122 F 20 C to 60 C 4 F to 140 F 10 90 RH operating lt 80 RH storage 9V battery NEDA 1604A or IEC 6LR61 or equivalent 180g 6 302 82 x 41 5 x 160mm 3 2 x 1 6 x 6 3 Range Resolution Accuracy 20C to 7 C sE o o AF to 20 F 0 1 F C 4
