The Porter-Cable PCC582B Infrared Thermometer is compatible with standard 9-Volt alkaline batteries. The thermometers incorporate an innovative temperature indicator beam specifically designed to provide a quick and easy indication of a temperature change. This product is designed for use by remodelers, HVAC professionals and energy specialists. The thermometers' temperature indicator beams allow professionals to identify temperature differences in a room. With the click of a trigger, the unit is turned on and takes a reference temperature reading while displaying a green circle beam onto the surface at which it is aimed. The color of the beam changes when a difference in temperature is detected as it is scanned across an area; a blue beam identifies a cool spot, and a red beam shows a hot spot. The temperature indicator beam can be used to find air leaks around doors, windows or ductwork, or where insulation is missing, helping to detect areas where energy efficiency can be improved. The unit can be used by HVAC professionals and in facilities maintenance to check running temperatures of bearings or motors. Electricians can also use this product to find hot spots on electrical panels. The thermometer has a working temperature range of -22 to 590-Degree Fahrenheit, a temperature accuracy of plus/minus 1.8-Degree, and a 12:1 distance to spot ratio for accuracy. Additionally, the thermometer offers ten memory settings that allow users to record measurements in different locations or remember readings in hard-to-reach areas. A backlit LCD screen provides visibility in dim lighting, and a lens cap ensures the unit is protected during transportation.
