Designed for use with Steinel hot air tools,
HG Scan PRO is a temperature scanner that
uses infrared for measuring temperature on a
contactless basis. During use, HG Scan PRO
gives you an acoustic and visual warning if the
temperature measured exceeds or falls below
the temperature selected. It is powered from

Safety warnings
n T his device may be used by
children aged 8 or above
and by persons with re-
duced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge if
they are supervised or have
been given instructions on
how to use the tool safely

How it works
HG Scan PRO measures an object's surface
temperature. The heat radiated from the ob-
ject is measured by the scanner's sensor and
transmitted to the hot air tool. Emissivity is a
value used to describe the relative ability of a
material to emit thermal energy by radiation
(characteristic "radiance").

The greater the emissivity, the more capable
the material is of emitting thermal energy. Most
organic materials and surfaces have a emissiv-
ity coefficient of approx. 0.90. Metallic surfaces
or shiny materials have a lower emissivity
coefficient. HG Scan PRO's emissivity can be
selected so as to rule out imprecise measured
values.
