CA876 Infrared Thermometers

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and features of the Infrared Thermometer Models CA870, CA872, and CA876. These are non-contact infrared temperature measuring instruments with various functionalities tailored for different applications.
Features:
  • All models include a 3.5-digit backlit LCD, auto-hold function, and auto power off after 15 seconds to conserve battery life.
  • Models CA872 and CA876 feature a laser guide for precise measurements.
  • Model CA876 includes a K thermocouple input, MIN/MAX recording features, an alarm for specified temperature thresholds, and adjustable emissivity from 0.1 to 1.00.
  • Temperature measurement ranges from -4°F to 1022°F (-20°C to 550°C) depending on the model.
  • All models are lightweight, compact, and include a rugged, shockproof, protective holster.
Applications: These thermometers are suitable for electrical troubleshooting, food safety, automotive repair, marine maintenance, testing motor winding insulation, high voltage transformers, circuit breaker panels, and HVAC energy audits.
Specifications:
  • Infrared temperature range varies by model, with Model CA876 offering the widest range.
  • Display resolution is 1°F or 1°C across all models.
  • Response time is 1 second for all models.
  • Emissivity is preset at 0.95 for Models CA870 and CA872, while Model CA876 offers adjustable emissivity.
  • All models use a thermopile sensor and Fresnel lens, with laser power < 0.5mW (670nm) for Models CA872 and CA876.
Model-Specific Features:
  • Model CA876 includes an alarm function for high and low temperature thresholds, simultaneous infrared and K thermocouple measurements, and MIN/MAX temperature tracking.
Field of View (FOV): The FOV ratio is 10:1, meaning the measurement size is one-tenth the distance to the target, ensuring accurate readings by excluding surrounding areas.
Ordering Information: Each model has a specific catalog number for ordering, with Model CA876 including additional accessories like a K thermocouple and protective holster.
Contact Information: The document provides contact details for technical assistance, customer support, sales, repair, and calibration services across different regions.
