The Model UT300A and UT300B Infrared Thermometer (hereafter, the “Thermometer”) can determine the UT300 SERIES surface temperature by measuring the amount of HOLD SCAN or HOLD SCAN infrared energy radiated by the target’s surface. They Temperature values for the Non-contact Infrared Thermometer have different distance to spot (D:S) figure and different MAX/MIN MAX and MIN temperature range, details see the contents.
