What color palettes are available?

Three palettes are available: Iron, Rainbow, and Grayscale. You can select them in the camera settings menu.

How to adjust emissivity?

Emissivity can be adjusted from 0.01 to 0.99 in the camera settings. The default is 0.95. Use the emissivity table provided in the manual or app to choose the correct value for the material.

Can I use the TI220 without the app?

No, the Klein Tools thermal imager app, available for free on Google Play, is necessary to display images and use all features.

How to take a thermal photo?

In real-time display mode, point the camera at the subject and press the on-screen photo button. Photos are stored in the app's gallery.

What to do if the image does not display?

EMISSIVITY

Emissivity is a measure of the ability of a surface to emit thermal energy by radiation. Different types of surfaces (metals, masonry, wood, etc.) emit thermal energy through radiation at different efficiencies. Accordingly, these materials have different emissivity coefficients which must be considered in order to make accurate measurements with an infrared thermometer.

Emissivity on the TI220 may be adjusted from 0.01 to 0.99 to enable accurate measurement of the temperature of most types of materials. Generally speaking, shiny bright surfaces such as chrome, white boards, etc. exhibit lower emissivity than flat black materials.

For guidance only, the chart below may be used to estimate emissivity for many different types of materials. However, the emissivity of surfaces is dependent upon many parameters such as surface finish, temperature, shape of the object, etc.

This chart should be used for guidance only.

Material Emissivity
Asphalt 0.93
Red brick 0.93
Gray brick 0.75
Porcelain ceramic 0.92
Fired clay 0.91
Rough concrete 0.94
Cotton cloth 0.77
Smooth glass 0.92 - 0.94
Granite 0.45
Gravel 0.28
Smooth ice 0.97
Smooth white marble 0.56
Black paint 0.96
Hard rubber	0.94
Wood	0.80 - 0.90
Matte copper	0.22
Commercial sheet aluminum	0.09
Cold rolled steel	0.75 - 0.85

Find a comprehensive list of emissivity values in the app's FAQ section or visit www.kleintools.com/emissivity.

CLEANING

Be sure unit is not connected to a device and wipe with a clean, dry lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

STORAGE

Do not expose to high temperatures or humidity. After a period of storage in extreme conditions exceeding the limits mentioned in the General Specifications section, allow unit to return to normal operating conditions before using.
