Infrared Thermometers  
Introduction  
The 561, 566 and 568 Infrared Thermometers (“the  
Thermometers” or “the Product”) are for non-contact  
temperature measurement. These Thermometers determine an  
object’s surface temperature by measuring the amount of  
infrared energy radiated by the object’s surface. The  
Thermometers also support contact-temperature measurement  
via K-type thermocouple.  
Note that the Japanese models indicate Celsius only.  
Safety Information  
A Warning identifies conditions and actions that pose hazard(s)  
to the user; A Caution identifies conditions and procedures that  
could cause Product damage, equipment under test damage, or  
permanent loss of data.  
Symbols used on the Product and in this manual are explained  
in Table 1 and Figures 1 and 2.

*WWarning  
To prevent eye damage and personal injury:  
Read all safety Information before you use  
the Product.  
Do not look directly into the laser with optical  
tools (for example, binoculars, telescopes,  
microscopes). Optical tools can focus the  
laser and be dangerous to the eye.  
Do not look into the laser. Do not point laser  
directly at persons or animals or indirectly off  
reflective surfaces.  
Do not use laser viewing glasses as laser  
protection glasses. Laser viewing glasses are  
used only for better visibility of the laser in  
bright light.  
Do not open the Product. The laser beam is  
dangerous to eyes. Have the Product  
repaired only through an approved technical  
site.  
Replace the batteries when the low battery  
indicator shows to prevent incorrect  
measurements.  
The battery door must be closed and locked  
before you operate the Product.  
Do not use the Product if it operates  
incorrectly.  
Do not use the Product around explosive gas,  
vapor, or in damp or wet environments.

Infrared Thermometers  
Safety Information  
Do not connect the optional external probe to  
live electrical circuits.  
See emissivity information for actual  
temperatures. Reflective objects result in  
lower than actual temperature  
measurements. These objects pose a burn  
hazard.  
Do not leave the Product on or near objects  
of high temperature.  
Use of controls or adjustments or  
performance of procedures other than those  
specified herein may result in hazardous  
laser radiation exposure.  
Use the Product only as specified, or the  
protection supplied by the Product can be  
compromised.  
WCaution  
To avoid damaging the Product or the equipment  
under test, protect them from the following:  
EMF (electro-magnetic fields) from arc  
welders, induction heaters, etc.  
Static electricity  
Thermal shock (caused by large or abrupt  
ambient temperature changes- for highest  
accuracy, allow 30 minutes for Product to  
stabilize before use).

Using the Thermometer  
Using the Thermometer  
To take a temperature reading, point the Thermometer at the  
desired object and pull the trigger. You can use the laser pointer  
to help aim the Thermometer. You may also insert the K-type  
thermocouple probe for contact measurement.  
Changing Batteries  
To change the batteries, see Figure 3.

(568 Only)  
Note  
To prevent incorrect readings, do not perform a  
temperature measurement of an earthed conductor while  
the 568 is connected to a PC that is earthed by a three-  
phase grounding plug.  
561 Display  
The primary temperature display reports the current or last IR  
temperature read until the 7-second hold time elapses.  
The secondary temperature display reports current  
thermocouple temperature when a type-K thermocouple is  
attached. See Figure 5.
