Product overview: 561 HVAC Infrared & Contact Thermometer
Fluke 561 IR and contact thermometer meets the needs of most industrial and residential temperature applications
The Fluke 561 IR contact thermometer combines the temperature measurement functions that industrial, electrical, and HVAC/R professionals need in one tool. It is an IR thermometer for non-contact measurements, with K-type thermocouple capability for contact temperature measurement. It's fast, efficient, and easy to use, saving you valuable time and effort.
Use the 561 IR capabilities to scan large areas or small objects quickly and efficiently, without having to shut down equipment. Measure hot, moving, electrically energized, and hard-to-reach objects instantly. Check motors, insulation, breakers, radiant heating, pipes, corroded connections, and wires. Plus, scan ducts, and other hard-to-reach objects from the floor and leave your ladder in the truck.
You can also use the Fluke 561's handy flexible pipe probe (included) to take super-heat or internal temperatures. Or plug in any industry standard type K mini connector thermocouple probe to take those measurements and preserve your investment in thermocouples you already own.
Other useful features:
- Features fabric hook-and-loop fastener pipe probe for superheat, sub-cooling, and other contact and ambient measurements
- Provides MIN, MAX, and DIF functions to help you quickly identify problems
- Weighs only 12 ounces/340 grams) and is extremely easy to use

Please explain the accuracy ±1.0% of reading ±1% of reading or ±1°C (±2°F), whichever is greater below 0°C / 32°F, ±1°C (±2°F) ±0.1°/1°. Our requirement is ±1°C accuracy for the range of -40 to +20 °C, will it comply our required accuracy?
<0 1 °c: ±(1.0 °c + 0.1 °/1°c means less then 0 degrees C it is + or - 1 degree C then add 0.1 degree C per 1 degree C. Then greater than 0 degrees C it is + or - 1% of the reading or 1 degree C, which ever is greater ( the % or the 1 degree C). The Fluke-561 does not have the accuracy required.

Rated 5 out of 5 by EEWdad from Rugged, Reliable Was looking for an IR thermometer capable of a wide temperature range - one that would also be able to stand the test of time. I should note, I'm also going back and replacing a number of meters/testers that I've used for a number of years and have landed on Fluke as my replacement brand.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jamie from We needed accurate and you came through We having issues with our welding rod oven's thermometers not being accurate. We have to throw welding rod away if it gets overheated. The factory thermostats we inconsistent and varied from oven to oven. We bought (2) 561 infrared thermometers to monitor our ovens. We were able to get our ovens all adjusted accurately and test them daily. We have not wasted a single weld rod in over a year since we purchased 561's. This has saved us $3000+ a year we were losing because of inaccurate rod ovens. Thank-You Fluke!

Rated 5 out of 5 by ThermalTran from Don't settle for less I have been using my 561 Thermometer for years now. After comparing it to many other models on the market I have to say that is the most accurate IR thermometer I have used. It is a must-have tool in my kit as a refrigeration technician. I've been able to increase the speed of my diagnostics and confirmation of work performed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by serrano930 from Absolutley accurate I have use this particular product for a year,and it has been dead on target each,and every time. It is the of the finest quality,we cover a combined 13 buildings and we have purchased three after the initial purchase. We have an establishe bac-net protocol and we use matasys from Johnson Controls,Ice from York,and Trane chillers you can check anything with it ,and you'll have a correct reading warranty,great product
