KPS-TM15 • Non-contact infrared thermometer
sent. Check again at a later time to verify.
- Red: High temperature difference. Thermal bridge detected. The display
will flash the surface temperature icon after approx. 25s from releasing
the trigger, the instrument will automatically turn itself off.
Note: Check the insulation if a thermal bridge is detected.
6.7. Mold warning mode
Mold warning mode compares the surface temperature with de dew point tem-
perature. Dew point temperature is calculated using the ambient temperature
and the relative humidity. If the temperature difference is small enough, the
LED above the display will change from green to either yellow or red to indicate
the possible presence of mold.
1. To activate mold warning mode, press the button
2. Point the instrument at the object and hold down the trigger. The laser point-
ers will activate showing the area which the infrared sensor can see.
3. The display will show the current surface temperature of the object within the
measurement spot, ambient temperature, relative humidity and dew point tem-
perature. After releasing the trigger the display will hold the current measurement.
4. The LED above the display will indicate the possible presence of mold.
- Green: High temperature difference. No risk of mold detected.
- Yellow: Medium temperature difference. Possible mold risk present.
Check again at a later time to verify.
- Red: Low temperature difference. High risk of mold detected. The dis-
play will flash the appropriate measurement that may be the cause.
- After approx. 25s from releasing the trigger, the instrument will automati-
cally turn itself off.
Note: Reduce the humidity or increase the ambient temperature if high risk of
mold is detected. The instrument cannot detect mold spores. The instrument
only gives an indication that mold formation is possible at the given location.
