2. Maklumat Keselamatan

WARNING: Laser Radiation. Do not stare into beam. Class 2 Laser Product.

• Jangan halakan laser terus ke mata atau secara tidak langsung dari permukaan pantulan.
• This device is for industrial and household surface temperature measurement only. It is bukan intended for measuring human body temperature.
• Avoid taking measurements through steam or dust, as this can interfere with accuracy.
• Jauhkan peranti daripada medan elektromagnet yang kuat.

Figure 2: The thermometer is suitable for surface temperature measurement (e.g., food on a grill) but not for human body temperature.

Figure 3: Steam and dust can interfere with accurate readings. Ensure a clear path for the laser.

5. Arahan Operasi

Pengukuran Asas:

1. Halakan termometer ke permukaan sasaran.
2. Pull and hold the trigger. The laser pointer will activate (if enabled) and the display will show the real-time temperature reading.
3. Release the trigger to hold the last measured temperature on the display. The device will automatically power off after 7 seconds of inactivity to conserve battery life.

Unit Switching (°C/°F):

Press the "°C/°F" button located below the display to toggle between Celsius and Fahrenheit units.

Pemilihan Mod:

Press the "MODE" button to cycle through different measurement modes:

• MAKS: Displays the maximum temperature detected during a continuous scan.
• MIN: Displays the minimum temperature detected during a continuous scan.
• AT (Ambient Temperature): Shows the surrounding air temperature.
• EMS (Emissivity): Allows adjustment of the emissivity value.
• CAL (Calibration): For fine-tuning temperature accuracy (refer to advanced usage for details).

Distance-to-Spot Ratio (D:S):

The GM321 has a D:S ratio of 12:1. This means that at a distance of 12 inches, the measurement spot size will be 1 inch. To ensure accurate readings, make sure the target area is larger than the spot size at your measurement distance.

Figure 7: Understanding the Distance-to-Spot Ratio for accurate measurement.

Pelarasan emisitiviti:

Emissivity (EMS) is a measure of a material's ability to emit infrared energy. Different materials have different emissivity values. The GM321 has a fixed emissivity of 0.95, which is suitable for a wide variety of common materials like plastic, painted surfaces, and many food items. For highly reflective surfaces (e.g., polished metals), readings may be less accurate. For such surfaces, you can place a piece of masking tape or flat black paint on the surface and measure the temperature of the tape/paint.

Figure 8: Common emissivity values for various materials.

Figure 9: For glass, place opaque material on the surface for more accurate readings.

Figure 10: For polished steel, adjust emissivity or use an opaque material for accurate measurements.

6. Aplikasi

The Benetech GM321 is versatile and can be used for various non-contact temperature measurement tasks:

• Memasak: Ideal for checking the surface temperature of griddles, pizza ovens, grills, and food items.
• HVAC: Measure temperatures of vents, ducts, and refrigeration units.
• Automotif: Check engine components, tires, and brake temperatures.
• Kegunaan Rumah: Monitor appliance temperatures, insulation, and general surface heat.

7. Penyelenggaraan

Pembersihan:

• Bersihkan kanta dengan lembut, damp cloth or cotton swab. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Wipe the device body with a damp kain. Jangan rendam peranti di dalam air.

Storan:

• Simpan termometer di tempat yang sejuk dan kering jauh dari cahaya matahari langsung dan suhu yang melampau.
• Tanggalkan bateri jika peranti tidak akan digunakan untuk tempoh yang lama untuk mengelakkan kebocoran.

8. Penyelesaian masalah

• Tiada Paparan/Peranti Tidak Dihidupkan: Check battery installation and ensure batteries are not depleted. Replace with fresh AAA batteries if necessary.
• Bacaan Tidak Tepat:
  • Ensure the target area is larger than the measurement spot size.
  • Check for obstructions like steam or dust between the device and the target.
  • Consider the emissivity of the target material. For highly reflective surfaces, use the tape/paint method.
  • Ensure the device has acclimatized to the ambient temperature if moved from a significantly different environment.
• Laser Tidak Kelihatan: Check if the laser function is enabled via the button below the display.
