FUNCTIONS/APPLICATIONS

Infrared thermometer Maxwell 4 CONDTROL is designed
to measure object ’s surface temperature by non-contact
method. It is equipped with temperature and humidity sensors
as well as an infrared sensor for object surface temperature
measurement, which can detect the «cold bridges» and places
where mildew can form. One touch on the trigger allows to
identif y poorly insulated areas in windows or to detect leaking
areas in external walls.

PACKAGE

Infrared thermometer Maxwell 4 – 1pc.
Power supply (1.5V A A A) - 2 pcs.
User manual - 1 pc.

4) Emissivity

All objects emit thermal energy. The volume of radiated
energy depends on the surface temperature
and emissivity of the object. The IR-thermometer measures
the intensity of radiation and
uses it to calculate the temperature of the object. Objects with
dif ferent surfaces but
equal temperature emit dif ferent amount of thermal energy.
Most of the objects and materials, for example, painted
metals, wood, water, leather, fabric have a high emissivity
(0.9 and more) and emit more energy than shiny surfaces and
unpainted metals with emissivity less than 0.6. Adjustment
of emissivity allows the device to take it into account and to
minimize the measurement error.

Measurements

Switch on the device. Aim the device at the object of
measurement and press the trigger. Keep the trigger
pressed to enter continuous measurement. Symbol of active

measurement will appear on the display. Measurement
results will appear on the display in real time mode.
If measurement result is beyond the set limit, LED indicator

turns red, the symbol

Hi

or

Low

appears on the display. When

the trigger is released, the device keeps the last measured

values on the display. The symbol appears on the display.

OPTICAL RESOLUTION

As the distance from the device to the object increases, the
size of the measured spot on object surface increases as well.
To determine the size of the spot (S) you need to divide the
distance from the device to the target (D) by 12.
Laser points ser ve as the reference to determine the size and
position of measured spot.
125 84 42 - spot (S)
1500 1000 500 - distance (D)
