Heavy Duty Psychrometer + IR Thermometer

Model HD500

HD500 V3.1 12/07

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Extech HD500 Psychrometer. This handheld

meter measures and displays Air Temperature, Relative Humidity, Dew Point, Wet Bulb

and also Surface Temperature using the built-in IR thermometer. This meter is shipped

fully tested and calibrated and, with proper use, will provide years of reliable service.

Features

•Triple digital LCD display.

•Fast response, all data is calculated four times per second.

•Standard type k(NiCr-NiAl) Thermocouple input jack suitable for any style of type k

probe.

•Infrared thermometer to measure surface temperature.

•Red laser pointer included.

•LCD with Backlight

•Automatic range selection

•USB interface.

•Low battery indication.

•Auto Power off.

Safety

•Use extreme caution when the laser pointer beam is on

•Do not point the beam toward anyone's eye or allow the beam

to strike the eye from a reflective surface

•Do not use the laser near explosive gases or in other

potentially explosive areas

Operation

Basic Measurements

1. Press the button to turn power on.

2. The upper display will indicate Air Temperature, Wet Bulb Temperature or Dew Point

Temperature and % Relative Humidity.

Press the WB/DP button to toggle between Air, WB or DP.

3. The lower display will indicate Type K temperature or IR Temperature.

Press and hold the IRT button to select the IR Thermometer.

The TYPE-K function will display “-------“ if a type k probe is not inserted into the meter.

4. Press the °C/°F button to change the temperature units from °C or °F.

Non-contact IR Surface Temperature Measurements

The built-in IR sensor can remotely measure the temperature of most

surfaces. The Laser pointer allows the user to aim accurately when taking

non-contact measurements.

1. Turn ON the meter using the button.

2. The IR sensor and laser pointer are located at the top of the meter.

3. Point the sensor toward the surface to be measured.

4. Press and hold the IRT button to begin measuring the surface

temperature of a desired target. IR TEMP and will appear on the

display. The laser pointer will switch on to help aim the meter.

5. The measured IR surface temperature will appear on the lower display.

6. When the IRT button is released, the laser pointer will switch off and the

reading will freeze (data hold) on the display for approximately 7

seconds.

7. After the 7 second hold time the meter returns to the type k mode.

WARNING: Do not directly view or direct the laser pointer at an eye. Low power

visible lasers do not normally present a hazard, but may present some potential for

hazard if viewed directly for extended periods of time.

Data Hold

1. Press the HOLD buttons (one for upper display and one for lower display) to freeze the

displayed value for the respective display. Press again to unlock the display.

2. The HOLD icon will appear on the display when the Data Hold mode is active.

MIN-MAX Recording Mode

1. Press the MAX/MIN button (one for upper display and one for lower display) to begin

recording the Maximum and Minimum reading. The REC MAX icon will appear and only

the maximum value measured will appear in the display. The display will update only if a

value higher than the currently displayed value is measured.

2. Press the MAX/MIN button again to display the minimum values. The REC MIN icon will

appear and only the minimum recorded value will appear in the display.

3. Press the MAX/MIN button again to display the currently measured values. The REC

icon will appear in the display and the Max and Min values will be stored in memory.

4. Press and Hold the MAX/MIN button for >2 seconds to exit the mode.

Auto-Power Off

The meter will automatically turn off after 15 minutes of operation if no buttons are pressed

during this period. Auto-power off can be disabled by:

1. Hold the IRT button and then press the button to turn the power on. When “disAPO”

appears in the display, release the IRT button and the APO is disabled.

Low Battery

When the battery reaches the minimum operating voltage the battery icon will appear in

the display. Replace the 9V battery when this happens.

Battery Replacement

When the battery icon appears on the LCD, the 9V battery must be replaced.

1. The battery compartment is located on the rear of the meter.

2. Press in and down on the arrow located above the tilt stand hinge.

3. Replace the 9V battery

4. Replace the battery cover.

Backlight

Press the backlight button to turn the backlight ON or OFF.

Note: continuous use of the backlight function will reduce battery life.

USB Interface and Software

The HD500 is equipped with a communication jack on its upper left side. The supplied

communications cable connects to this jack and to a USB port on a PC. The supplied

software allows the user to view and save readings to the PC. Instructions for use and

features are detailed in the supplied software HELP utility.

InfraRed Measurement Considerations

•When taking IR measurements the meter automatically compensates for ambient

temperature changes. Note that it may take up to 30 minutes to adjust to extremely

wide ambient changes.

•Low temperature measurements quickly followed by high temperature measurements

may require several minutes to stabilize as a result of the IR sensor cooling process.

•If the surface of the object under test is covered with frost, oil, grime, etc., clean before

taking measurements.

•If an object's surface is highly reflective apply masking tape or flat black paint before

measuring.

•Steam, dust, smoke, etc. can obstruct measurements.

•To find a hot spot, aim the meter outside the area of interest then scan across (in an up

and down motion) until the hot spot is located.

•IR measurements cannot be made through glass.

IR Theory

IR thermometers measure the surface temperature of an object. The meter’s optics sense

emitted, reflected, & transmitted energy that is collected and focused onto the meter’s

detector. The meter’s circuitry translates this information into an LCD reading.

IR Field of View

Ensure that the desired target is larger than the spot size. As the distance from an object

increases, the spot size of the area measured by the meter becomes larger. The meter’s

field of view ratio is 30:1, meaning that if the meter is 30 inches (cm) from the target, the

diameter (spot) of the object under test must be at least 1 inch (cm). Refer below to the

field of view diagram.

Emissivity

Most organic materials and painted or oxidized surfaces have an emissivity of 0.95.

Inaccurate readings will result when measuring shiny or polished surfaces. To

compensate, cover the surface under test with masking tape or flat black paint. Allow time

for the tape to reach the same temperature as the material underneath then measure the

temperature of the tape or the painted surface.
