ENERGY SAVING SET 100
IR-THERMOMETER IR 260-8S
ITEM NO.: 51 00 53
INTENDED USE
The IR-260-8S is a device for non-contact temperature measurement, which uses the infrared
energy emitted by an object to determine the temperature. The IR-260-8S thermometer is
ideal for measuring the temperature of hot, hard-to-reach, or moving objects. It measures the
surface temperature of an object. However, it cannot make measurements through transparent
surfaces such as glass or plastic. The thermometer has a temperature range of -30ºC to 260ºC.
Power is supplied by a 9 V battery.
Measurements must not be carried out under unfavourable ambient conditions. Adverse
ambient conditions include:
• Moisture or excessive humidity
• Dust or combustible gases, vapours or solvents
• Thunderstorms or conditions as during a storm (e.g. strong electrostatic fi elds should be
avoided)
For safety and approval purposes (CE), you must not rebuild and/or modify this product. If you
use the product for purposes other than those described above, the product may be damaged.
In addition, improper use can cause hazards such as short circuiting, fire, electric shock etc.
Read the instructions carefully and keep them. Make this product available to third parties only
together with its operating instructions.

• The product must not be exposed to electromagnetic fields, static electrical fields,
extreme temperatures, direct sunlight or dampness.
• If there is reason to believe that safe operation is no longer possible, put the device
out of operation and secure it against unintended operation. Safe operation is no
longer possible if:
- the product shows visible damages,
- the product no longer works and
- the product was stored under unfavourable conditions for a long period of time,
- the product was subject to considerable transport stress.
• The product should not be connected immediately after it has been brought from an
area of cold temperature to an area of warm temperature. Condensed water might
destroy the product. Wait until the product stabilises to adapt to the new ambient
temperature before use.
• The device must not be exposed to humidity or liquids.
• Steam, dust, smoke and/or vapours can prevent accurate measurement by
obstructing the thermometer's optics.
• The manufacturer or supplier accepts no responsibility whatsoever for incorrect
displays or the consequences which can arise from such incorrect displays.
b) Laser

• This product is equipped with a class 2 laser according to EN 60 825-1. Never open
the device.
• Any adjustment or service work is only to be carried out by qualified personnel who
are familiar with the risks involved. Improperly made adjustments may result in
hazardous laser radiation.
• During operation of the device, the laser has to be directed in such a way that no
person is located within the range of projection and that unwanted reflected rays
(e.g. due to reflecting objects) do not get into the range of any person.
• If possible, restrict the range of radiation by using screens or partitions. Never open
the device. Any adjustment or service work is only to be carried out by qualified
personnel who are familiar with the risks involved. Improperly made adjustments
may result in hazardous laser radiation.
• Included in the delivery are reference signs for the laser in different languages. In
case the sign on the laser is not written in the language of your country, please fix
the respective sign onto the laser.
c) (Rechargeable) batteries
• Observe correct polarity while inserting the battery.
• Remove the battery if the device is not used for a long period of time to avoid
damage through leaking. Leaking or damaged batteries might cause acid burns
when contact with skin, therefore use suitable protective gloves to handle corrupted
batteries.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children. Do not leave the battery lying around, as
there is risk, which children or pets could swallow it.
• Make sure that batteries are not dismantled, short-circuited or thrown into fire.
