Dismantling

  • open the battery compartment and removed the 3 button cells
  • remove the "NCV" rubber button from the base of the unit by pulling it out
  • the PCB will then slide out the IR end with a little prising of the "sides" of the tube near the IR end
  • the LCD module can be unscrewed from the PCB will a fine Phillips head screw-driver
  • the shroud around the Thermal IR detector can be removed

Internals

The Thermal IR detector is in a 4-pin TO-18 style case (around 5mm dia.) The part number "3214" and "OJ" appear to be stamped on the side. It has 4 leads, with pin 4 connected to the case, which is not electrically connected to GND.
