Infrared temperature: Setting the emissivity
An integrated sensor head detects the material/surface-specific infrared radiation emitted by all objects.
The level of these emissions is determined by the specific emissivity of the material (0,01 to 1,00).
After switching on for the first time, the device is preset to an emissivity factor of 0.95, which is suitable
for most organic materials and non-metals (plastics, ceramics, wood, rubber, paints, varnishes and stone).
For materials with different emissivity factors, refer to the table under Point 7.
Wherever possible, paint or matt black stickers can be applied on non-coated metals and metal oxides,
which due to their low, temperature-unstable emissivity are suitable for IR measurement only for a limited
extent, as well as on surfaces with unknown emissivity in order to set the emissivity factor to 0.95. If this
is not possible, use a contact thermometer.
!
The emissivity last selected is set after the device is switched on.
Check the emissivity setting before each measurement.
The device features a quick selection function for the stored emissivity factors (0.95, 0.85, 0.75,
0.65, 0.55) and accurate setting between 0.01 – 1.00.

The storage locations E1 - E5 can be changed arbitrarily. By long-pressing on the storage location
it can be adapted and the value remains stored. The factory reset resets the values to 0.95 / 0.85 / 0.75 /
0.65 and 0.55.
