Înființat

1. Instalarea bateriei

The Benetech GM321 requires two AAA batteries (included). To install the batteries:

1. Localizați capacul compartimentului bateriilor de pe mânerul termometrului.
2. Trageți ușor în jos capacul bateriei pentru a deschide compartimentul.
3. Introduceți două baterii AAA, asigurându-vă că polaritatea este corectă (+/-), așa cum este indicată în interiorul compartimentului.
4. Închideți bine capacul bateriei până când se fixează în poziție cu un clic.

2. Pornirea inițială

Once batteries are installed, the device is ready for use. Simply press the trigger to power on the thermometer and begin measuring.

Instrucțiuni de operare

1. Măsurarea temperaturii de bază

To measure the surface temperature of an object:

1. Point the infrared thermometer at the target object.
2. Apăsați și mențineți apăsat trăgaciul. Indicatorul laser se va activa, indicând zona de măsurare.
3. The temperature reading will be displayed instantly on the LCD screen. Release the trigger to hold the reading.

2. Conversia unităților de măsură (°C/°F)

Pentru a comuta între Celsius (°C) și Fahrenheit (°F):

• With the device powered on, press the ° C / ° F button located below the display.
• The unit on the display will change accordingly.

3. Mode Selection (MAX/MIN/Ambient/Emissivity)

The thermometer offers multiple measurement modes. Press the MOD pentru a le parcurge:

• ȚINEȚI: Data Hold (default after releasing trigger).
• MAX: Displays the maximum temperature recorded during continuous measurement.
• MIN: Displays the minimum temperature recorded during continuous measurement.
• LA: Measures the current ambient temperature.
• EMS: Emissivity adjustment mode.
• CAL: Self-calibration mode.

4. Reglarea emisivității

Emissivity (EMS) is crucial for accurate temperature measurement of different surfaces. The GM321 allows adjustment from 0.1 to 1.0, with a default of 0.95. To adjust emissivity:

1. Apăsați tasta MOD apăsați butonul până când pe afișaj apare „EMS”.
2. Folosiți Up (▲) si jos (▼) buttons to adjust the emissivity value.
3. Refer to the table below for common material emissivity values.

Figure 6: Emissivity adjustment and common material values.

5. Distance to Spot Ratio (D:S)

The GM321 has a Distance to Spot (D:S) ratio of 12:1. This means that at a distance of 12 inches, the measurement spot size will be 1 inch. To ensure accurate readings, measure from a distance where the target object completely fills the spot size.

Întreţinere

1. Curatenie

To clean the thermometer, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp pânză. Nu folosiți produse de curățare abrazive și nu scufundați dispozitivul în apă.

2. Înlocuirea bateriei

When the low battery indicator appears on the display, replace the two AAA batteries following the installation steps in the Setup section.

Depanare

1. Citiri inexacte

• emisivitate: Ensure the emissivity setting is correctly adjusted for the material being measured. Refer to the Emissivity Adjustment section.
• Distanţă: Maintain the correct distance to spot ratio. Ensure the target completely fills the measurement spot.
• Interferență: Avoid measuring through steam, dust, or highly reflective surfaces. These can significantly affect accuracy.

2. Self-Calibration

The device supports self-calibration between -1.5°C and +1.5°C to fine-tune accuracy. Access the CAL mode via the MODE button and use the Up/Down arrows to adjust.

Specificații

Informații importante privind siguranța

• NU ESTE PENTRU UZ UMAN: This infrared thermometer is designed for industrial and scientific applications, as well as for measuring surface temperatures of food, oil, and water. It is nu intended for measuring human body temperature.
• SIGURANȚA LASER: Do not stare directly into the laser beam. Avoid pointing the laser at people or animals.
• AVOID INTERFERENCE: Steam and dust can interfere with the accuracy of infrared thermometers. Ensure a clear line of sight to the target surface.
