Achieve precise accuracy with the Laser Temperature Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer from General Tools. This design is a compact, non-contact (infrared) thermometer with a 12:1 distance-to-spot (D:S) ratio and a wide measurement range of -40° to 1076°F. Using this IR thermometer and its unique Star Burst laser targeting system (which helps to define the size of the target area), the temperature of a target can easily and accurately be measured from a distance. This makes it possible to safely measure the temperature of very hot or cold surfaces, hard-to-reach objects and toxic substances.
Comes in a blister pack along with a soft carrying case and user's manual for convenience
Measurement range of -40° to 1076°F for versatile use

Q:How do you put the battery in it?
by|Jun 18, 2020
1 Answer
Answer This Question
A:Â Open the battery compartment by pulling its cover away from the grip. Then plug the 9V battery that comes with the IRT657 into the wired socket inside the compartment. The terminals of the battery and the socket mate in only one way, with the smaller male terminal plugging into the larger female terminal. Close the battery compartment by snapping it shut.

Q:How do you celebrate the IRT206 temperature gun? Or tell if it is the correct temp?
by|Mar 10, 2019
1 Answer
Answer This Question
A:Â The IRT206 requires special lab equipment to calibrate it. If you want to check whether or not it is reading accurately within the specified accuracy, you would need a target with an already know temperature. An easy example would be a cup of boiling water since the temperature of boiling water is known.

Q:can it be used to measure AC air out of AC vents?
by|Jun 29, 2018
1 Answer
Answer This Question
A:Â Hi Mimi, this IRT is meant to measure surface temperature only. If you think the AC vents surface would have the same temperature as the AC air coming out, then you can point the IRT at the AC vents to get the AC air temperature. Hope this helps.

Very good tool. Easy to use. Accuracy (+/- 3F above 32F and +/-5F below 32F) might not be good enough for critical applications.

the metering portion of this device does a good job, and it has an excellent range of temperatures. But the visibility aspects of it are less admirable. The laser dot is not very bright compared to another thermometer I have, and the temperature display has a very shallow angle of view. If you're not directly behind the meter it can't be read.

Excellent tool!
Best temperature range I could find, and it proved to be very sensitive. I even found an air leak around a chimney, that I wasn't aware of. I would have given it 5 stars, but the targeting laser was very out of alignment. If it had a way to adjust laser alignment, it would have been much easier to use.
RYOBI introduces the Infrared Thermometer. To start saving on energy costs, use this RYOBI Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer to detect hot and cold spots near doors and windows and check air vents for efficiency. The thermometer's laser guide makes it easy to take temperature readings by clearly identifying the current target. The small hand-held size of the thermometer allows for great portability between jobs, so you can check the energy efficiency of your household and then easily transition to checking the temperatures of engine components. Backed by the RYOBI 3-Year Manufacturer's Warranty, the Infrared Thermometer includes a 9-volt battery and an operator's manual. Not Intended for Testing Human Temperature.
Klein Tools IR5 is a professional dual-laser targeting infrared thermometer, offering a wide measurement range, a tight 12:1 distance-to-spot ratio, dual targeting lasers, and several calculation modes to facilitate different temperature measurement applications. The dual lasers assist in targeting the measurement area. The distance between the two laser spots on the surface of the object being measured approximates the diameter of the circular measurement area from which the infrared sensor is collecting data.
This infrared thermometer features a 12:1 distance to spot ratio and is capable of measuring temperatures up to 752°F (400°C). The R2300 is an affordable non-contact measurement solution able to quickly and efficiently measure the temperature of hot, hazardous or hard-to reach objects from a safe distance. Fast responding entry-level infrared thermometer with minimum/maximum temperature readings and adjustable high/low temperature alarms.
The IDEAL 61-847 dual laser targeting infrared thermometer (IRT) is a non-contact temperature sensing meter. Its dual lasers define the outside edges of the area whose temperature will be measured. The IRT displays the actual measurement as well as 4 selectable additional measurements. Hi and lo alarms and emissivity are all user programmable. The IRT measures temperatures from minus 26° to 932°F (minus 32° to 500°C). The LCD backlit display can be illuminated when working in poor or zero lighting conditions and the laser targeting system can be turned on and off at the user's discretion. The unit uses 2 red lasers located above and below the IR sensor to accurately outline the area being measured. An industrial grade over molding and lanyard tie off point enhance grip and drop protection. This meter features hold, minimum, maximum, avg, difference, high/low visual and audible alarms, lock measurement for temperature measurement over time (unit can be mounted on a standard camera tripod), adjustable emissivity, and selectable auto power off functions. The meter comes with 2 1.5-Volt AAA batteries.
