FEATURES
2
The TLD100 Thermal Leak Detectoruses an infrared sensor to find leaks along walls,
molding, ductwork and more. The auto color change feature provides quick, intuitive
feedback, showing you where to caulk, insulate, etc.
Once you have determined the location of these leaks, you can use the bonus booklet
“5 Basic Steps to Seal Your Home”. This booklet covers basic weather stripping and
insulating tips.
Safety Instructions
• Do not operate the Thermal Leak Detectorin explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
• Use only with the specifically designated batteries (9V alkaline). Use of any other
batteries may create a risk of fire.
• The Thermal Leak Detector measures surface temperature, not interior temperature. Do
not use for medical purposes.
• Do not use to determine if meat is cooked enough to eat.
Liquid Crystal Display (First Aid Measures)
• If liquid crystal comes in contact with your skin:
Wash area off completely with plenty of water. Remove contaminated clothing.
• If liquid crystal gets into your eye:
Flush the affected eye with clean water and then seek medical attention.
• If liquid crystal is swallowed:
Flush your mouth thoroughly with water. Drink large quantities of water and induce
vomiting. Then seek medical attention.
Battery Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: Batteries can explode, or leak and can cause injury or fire. To reduce
this risk:
• Carefully follow all instructions and warnings on the battery label and package.
• Always insert battery correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -), marked on
the battery and the equipment.
• Do not short battery terminals.
• Do not charge batteries.
• Remove dead battery immediately and dispose of per local codes.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children.
• Remove battery if the device will not be used for several months.
Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come
in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US
Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) prohibits
transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon
luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting
individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated
from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

INTRODUCTION
The Thermal Leak Detector compares
these two temperatures. When the
difference exceeds the threshold
you've set, the projected LED spot
will change to red or blue.
Reference Temperature
Shows the temperature of the
area where the instrument was
initially pointed when you turned
on the power. To reset the ref-
erence, turn the power off, aim
at a new reference spot, and
turn the power back on.
Scan Temperature
Shows the average temperature across
the area you're aiming at.
