USER MANUAL ThermoVisualizer Pro Laserliner

Safety instructions Dealing with electromagnetic radiation – The measuring device complies with electromagnetic compatibility regulations and limit values in accordance with EMC-Directive 2014/30/EU. – Local operating restrictions – for example, in hospitals, aircraft, petrol stations or in the vicinity of people with pacemakers – may apply. Electronic devices can potentially cause hazards or interference or be subject to hazards or interference. – The measuring accuracy may be affected when working close to high voltages or high electromagnetic alternating elds. General safety instructions – The device must only be used in accordance with its intendedpurpose and within the scope of the specications. – The measuring tools and accessories are not toys. Keep out of reach of children. – Modications or changes to the device are not permitted, this will otherwise invalidate the approval and safety specications. – Do not expose the device to mechanical stress, extreme temperatures, moisture or signicant vibration. – The device must no longer be used if one or more of its functions fail, the battery charge is weak, or the housing has been damaged. – When using the device outdoors, make sure that the weather conditions are appropriate and/or that suitable protection measures are taken. Intended use This product is intended for visualising temperature curves, thermal bridges and condensation. It determines the infrared temperature, relative humidity, ambient temperature and dew point temperature. Completely read through the operating instructions, the „Warranty and Additional Information“ booklet as well as the latest information under the internet link at the end of these instructions. Follow the instructions they contain.These documents must be kept in a safe place and passed on together with the product.

Inserting micro-SD card The device must be switched off before removing the micro-SD.

To insert a micro-SD card, rst open the rubber cover and then insert the memory card as illustrated. You cannot record anything without a storage medium. The device has a replaceable battery. Contact your distributor or the UMAREX-LASERLINER service department.

Use of lithium-ion rechargeable battery – The battery may be charged only with the enclosed USB charging cable on a standard commercial USB power supply unit (5V/>= 1000mA). Using any other power pack/charger will invalidate the warranty. – Use the power supply/charger unit only in closed rooms; do not expose to moisture or rain otherwise risk of electric shock. – Charge the device‘s battery completely prior to use. – Connect the power pack/charger to the mains power supply and the socket in the battery pack. – The LED lights up red while the device is charging. The LED changes to green when charging is complete.

Main Menu General and measurement-specic settings can be made in the main menu. The menu is controlled with the four hot keys.

Image recording Using the „Trigger“ (10) button, users can take images of any measurement situation for the subsequent documentation. The images are stored in the media gallery in a folder named after the date in question.

Dew point mode (DP mode) The dew point mode is ideal for critical interior space inspections because it makes the areas where the dew point has been reached, or where the temperature has fallen below it, visible. The dew point mode is especially useful in buildings with high humidity or poor ventilation to enable preventive measures and better control of the room climate. Image modes There are 5 image modes to choose from. A. IR image (Thermal image) B. - D. Digital image with IR image overlay (MIX), 3 stages E Digital image (black/white) A E B C D

Infrared image (IR mode) Depending on the colour palette used, the infrared image (thermal image) represents the surface temperature in colour. Temperature curves become visible and help with analysis of various applications, such as building inspection including detecting thermal bridges, working on electrical plants, machines heating and ventilation systems as well as locating heat sources or cold spots. 2 sec 3 ON / OFF The product needs 20 minutes before use to acclimatise to the conditions at the place of use.

Emissivity coefficient The level of infrared emissions given off by everything depends on the specic material and surface. This factor is determined by the emissivity coefcient (0.10 ... 1.0). For accurate measure- ments, it is absolutely essential that the emissivity coefcient is set rst. The emissivity coefcient can either be custom set or selected from the predened emissivity coefcients from the list. Conrmation Increase value Decrease value Conrmation Cancel / back

Infrared settings Before each use, check the relevant parameters for infrared measurement or adjust them to the specic measuring situation to ensure accurate measurements. Emissivity coefcient Measuring distance Colour palettes Temperature range Unit °C/K

Color palettes You can choose from several standard colour ranges to represent the measured infrared temperatures. Depending on the colour palette, the measured temperatures are adjusted within the current image section and displayed in the respective colour space.

Temperature range This setting is used to adjust the temperature range of the IR image and the resulting distribution of the colour spectrum of the infrared image. Conrmation Navigation Navigation Conrmation Cancel / back In automatic mode, the temperature range is automatically adjusted to the highest measured temperature. The switching process can take several seconds;”Image Calibrating ...” appears.

Dew point offset The dew point offset of -5 K to +5 K enables ne adjustment of the threshold at which the critical areas are displayed. Areas whose surface temperature is below the dew point temperature ± offset are marked in blue in the image.

Date / time The time and the date can be set with the cursor keys and the time format changed from 24 h to 12 h.

Time stamp Select from here whether to include date/time information in the photo.

Thermal bridge warning Temperature at centre of image + offset higher than ambient temperature Temperature at centre of image + offset lower than ambient temperature

Thermal bridge offset The thermal bridge offset is an adjustable tolerance of 3 K to 8 K that species the temperature difference between the surface mid-temperature and ambient temperature, above which the camera recognises and highlights a thermal bridge warning.

Data saved on the micro-SD card can be transferred to PC either with a suitable card reader or via the USB-C port.

Reset to factory settings All parameters are reset to factory setting.
