561 HVAC PRO Infrared Thermometer Introduction The Fluke Model 561 HVACPro Infrared Thermometer (hereafter, “the Thermometer”) can determine the surface temperature by measuring the amount of infrared energy radiated by the target’s surface or by contact using a thermocouple probe. The Thermometer was designed specifically for use in heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) applications. Contacting Fluke To contact Fluke, call one of the following telephone numbers: USA: 1-8

561 HVACPro Users Manual How the Thermometer Works Infrared thermometers measure the surface temperature of an opaque object. The Thermometer’s optics sense infrared energy, which is collected and focused onto a detector. The Thermometer’s electronics then translate the information into a displayed temperature reading which appears on the display. The laser is used for aiming purposes only. Operating the Thermometer The Thermometer turns on when you press the trigger. The Thermometer tu

561 HVACPro Users Manual Table 3 lists recommended Fluke temperature probes for use with the Thermometer: Table 3. Recommended Temperature Probes Probe Usage The piercing probe is the most versatile option. Good for checking air temperature in ducts, surface temperature under carpets/pads, liquids, thermometer wells, vent 80PK-25 temperatures, and for penetrating pipe insulation. The general purpose bead probe is an alternative, for quick, accurate surface 80PK-1 temperatures and air

Infrared Thermometer Typical Measurements • The most likely conditions for condensation formation are low dry bulb temperature and high wet bulb temperature (low temperature, high relative humidity). • Use the Fluke 971 to measure the attic/crawlspace relative humidity and determine the dew point temperature. This is the temperature at which condensation will form on the duct wrap. • Use the thermocouple to measure the duct wrap surface temperature. The temperature must remain above th

561 HVACPro Users Manual • All condenser return bend/hairpins should be at or slightly less than condenser saturation temperature. • If a group of return bends/hairpins do not conform to expected temperatures, that indicates a blocked or restricted distributor or distributor tube. Checking Superheat on Fixed Restrictor or Capillary Tube Equipped Evaporators Note Superheat is a critical temperature. 1. Ensure that filter and blower are clean and all registers are open and unobstructed.
