Ir Measure; Contact Measurement; Sensor Connection - VOLTCRAFT IR-1600 CAM Mode D'emploi

d) IR Measure
The menu item "IR MEASURE" is used for measurement without the camera. This makes it easier to read the meas-
urements because of the homogeneous image background.
Point the measuring opening (13) at the measured object vertically. Observe that the measured object is not smaller
than the IR measuring area of the device.
Push and hold the measuring button (9). In the display, the main measured value and all other enabled parameters
are displayed. The displayed main measured value corresponds to the average surface temperature of the IR measur-
ing area. During the measurement, the symbol "Start" in the display is concealed and the symbol "Pause" is shown.
The bar display at the lower edge of the screen shows the trend of the current measured value for a quick overview
(rising/falling).
After releasing the measuring button (9), the last measured value is displayed until automatic deactivation (can be
pre-set) for better reading. The symbol "Pause" goes out and the display "Start" appears to indicate readiness for
measurement.
e) Contact measurement
Observe that contact temperature measurement is only permitted with objects that do not turn and are not
live. Also observe that contact temperatures are only possible up to the approved sensor temperature. The
approved sensor temperature of the enclosed wire sensor is -20 to +250 °C. To use the entire measuring
range of the meter, you can purchase optional thermocouple sensors of type K.
The contact measurement is possible in the measuring functions "IR CAM", "IR MEASURE", "DEW POINT" and
"DATA LOGGER".
In addition to contact-free IR measurement, a thermocouple contact sensor type K can be connected as well. The
contract measurement permits measurement of the temperature independently of the material and degree of emission
of the object. In addition to the enclosed wire temperature sensor, all conventional type K thermocouple sensors with
miniature plug can also be connected to the devices

Sensor connection

1
• Open the lower cover at the meter.
• Push the thermocouple plug of the sensor into the type K connection socket in the proper polarity
(15). Observe the mark "+" at the plug and the socket. The plug only fits the socket in the correct
polarity.
• Once a thermo sensor is connected to the meter with the type K function active, the display "TK"
with the temperature of the sensor appears below the IR measured value in measuring operation.
• Remove the sensor after the end of the measurement and close the cover to prevent ingression
of dirt.
The additional functions "MIN", "MAX", "AVG" and "DIF" are not possible for contact measurement. The
information always refers to the IR measurement.
