Series IR6/IR7 Dual Laser Infrared Thermometer
Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
Bulletin T-10-IR6-IR7
The Series IR6/IR7 Dual Laser Extended Range Infrared Ther-
mometer is ideal for accurately measuring surface temperatures from long
distances. This feature packed handheld device allows the user to read the
maximum, minimum, average, and differential readings. The high and low
alarms give audible and visual indication of the process temperature. When
taking measurements in dark areas, a built-in white light can be used to il-
luminate the measurement area. For long term measurements, the unit in-
cludes a dual magnetic base attachment that allows hands-free
measurements.
Operating Instructions
Aim the thermometer at the target and pull the trigger to initiate the laser
sighting. Align the two laser points on the target to be measured. The sur-
face temperature between the two laser point will appear on the screen.
Upon releasing the trigger, the “Hold” icon will appear in the top left of the
screen and the last measurement will appear for 60 seconds (followed by
an automatic shut off to conserve battery life).
Minimum, Maximum, Average, or Difference Readings
The thermometer will display the minimum, maximum, average, or differen-
tial (difference between the min and max) readings for the period in which
the measurements were taken. Press the “Mode” key, during or after scan-
ning, to display these values.
High or Low Alarm
The thermometer allows the user to set a high and low alarm. When the
temperature reading is above the high or below the low alarm, and audible
alarm will sound.
To adjust the high and low alarm functions, pull the trigger once to turn on
the unit. Press the “Mode” key until “HAL” or “LAL” appear on the lower
section of the screen. Press the up or down key to adjust the alarms in 1.00
increments.
Continuous Monitoring
The lock mode is used for continuously measuring temperatures for up to
60 minutes or until the “Lock” key is pressed.
To enter lock mode, pull the trigger once to turn on the unit. Press the
“Lock” key once so that lock appears on the screen (not in High alarm or
Low alarm mode).

Engineering Units
The thermometer can measure °F or °C. To change the units, pull the trig-
ger once to turn on the unit. Press the °F/°C key to switch the units.
Emissivity
The emissivity is preset at the factory at 0.95. It can be adjusted from 0.10
to 1.00. Changes should only be carried out by experienced personnel.
To change the emissivity, pull the trigger once to turn on the unit. Press
“EMIS” key once. Press the up key or down key to adjust emissivity in 0.01
increments. Press the “EMIS” key to accept the new emissivity reading.
Laser and Light Functions
The built-in white light and back-lit LCD screen are present for low-light
conditions and the DUAL lasers are utilized to accurately define the mea-
surement area.
To turn on or off the backlight function, hold the trigger down and press the
“Lock” key.
The Dual laser (and flashlight) can be turned on or off simultaneously by
holding down the trigger and pushing the °F/°C key.
