1. Introducció

The Elitech DIT-220 is a high-precision, non-contact infrared thermometer designed for safe and accurate temperature measurement across various applications. This device utilizes laser targeting for precise aim and features adjustable emissivity to ensure accurate readings on different surface types. It is suitable for use by professionals, DIY enthusiasts, and in household settings for monitoring temperatures in industrial, commercial, and domestic environments.

2. Informació de seguretat

Please read all safety warnings and instructions carefully before using this product. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury or damage to the device.

• Seguretat làser: Do not look directly into the laser beam or point it at people or animals. The laser is used for targeting only and should be used with caution.
• Mesura sense contacte: This thermometer measures surface temperature. It is not intended for measuring body temperature.
• Seguretat elèctrica: Do not use the device near strong electromagnetic fields. Keep the device dry and avoid exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures.
• Seguretat de la bateria: Use only the specified battery type (2x AAA). Ensure correct polarity when installing batteries. Remove batteries if the device will not be used for an extended period. Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of batteries.
• Manteniment: No intenteu desmuntar ni modificar el dispositiu. Encarregueu tot el manteniment a personal qualificat.

5.2 Engegada/apagada

To power on the device, simply press the measurement trigger. The device will automatically power off after a period of inactivity to conserve battery life.

6. Instruccions de funcionament

6.1 Prendre una mesura

1. Point the thermometer at the target surface. Ensure the laser pointer (if activated) is aimed at the center of the area you wish to measure.
2. Press and hold the measurement trigger. The laser will activate, and the current temperature will be displayed on the LCD screen.
3. Release the trigger to hold the measurement on the display. The 'HOLD' icon will appear.

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

The DIT-220 has a Distance-to-Spot ratio of 12:1. This means that as you move further from the target, the area being measured (spot size) increases. For accurate readings, ensure the target area is larger than the spot size. For example, at a distance of 12 inches, the measurement spot will be 1 inch in diameter.

Figura 4: Illustration of the 12:1 Distance-to-Spot ratio.

6.3 Ajust de l'emissivitat

Different materials emit infrared energy differently. The DIT-220 allows you to adjust the emissivity (ε) from 0.10 to 1.00 to compensate for this and achieve more accurate readings. Refer to a standard emissivity table for common materials or adjust empirically.

1. Premeu el botó MODE button to cycle through settings until 'EMS' (Emissivity) is displayed.
2. Use the Up/Down arrow buttons to adjust the emissivity value.
3. Premeu el botó MODE botó de nou per confirmar i sortir.

6.4 Using MAX/MIN/AVG Modes

These modes are useful for monitoring temperature fluctuations over time.

1. While holding the measurement trigger, press the MODE button repeatedly to cycle through MAX (Maximum), MIN (Minimum), and AVG (Average) display modes.
2. The corresponding icon will appear on the screen, showing the respective temperature value recorded during the current measurement session.

6.5 Canvi d'unitats de temperatura (°C/°F)

To switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit, press the °C/°F button located on the device.

7. Manteniment

7.1 Neteja

• Netegeu la lent amb un suau, damp cloth or cotton swab. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Netegeu el dispositiu casinamb un drap suau i sec.

7.2 Substitució de la bateria
