Maintenance And Cleaning - VOLTCRAFT IR-360 Bedienungsanleitung

Degree of emission
The degree of emission is a value used to describe the energy radia-
tion characteristics of a material. The higher the value, the more
capable the material is of emitting radiation. A large number of orga-
nic materials and surfaces have a degree of emission of approx.
0.95. Metallic surfaces or shiny materials have a low degree of emis-
sion, and therefore provide imprecise measured values. Please note
this information when using the IR-360.
As a compensation, the surface of shiny parts can be covered with
adhesive tape or a matt black colour.
The device is not able to take measurements through transparent sur-
faces such as glass. Instead, it measures the surface temperature of
the glass.

Maintenance and cleaning

Blow loose dirt particles off the IR lens (1). Brush off any remaining
dirt using a fine lens brush. Wipe the surface of the device with a
slightly damp cloth. Only use water to moisten the cloth. Do not use
chemicals or cleaning agents when cleaning.
