Comtest is making available the Fluke 566 and Fluke 568 thermometers, which feature advanced infrared temperature measurement functionality, a menu-based user interface and a graphical display to enable users to take complex measurements quickly and easily and from great distances.
For added convenience, both of the rugged handheld thermometers combine contact and non-contact temperature measurement capability in a single tool, providing a total temperature measurement solution for industrial, electrical and maintenance professionals. The thermometers provide a broad temperature measurement range from -40°C up to 800°C at 1% measurement accuracy, making them appropriate for a wide variety of inspection applications.
With the intuitive user interface, users can access advanced features such as adjustable emissivity, alarms and data logging with a few pushes of the soft-key buttons via a menu displayed on the dot-matrix screen. The display has two levels of backlight to facilitate viewing in a variety of lighting conditions.
Both models include a K-type thermocouple bead probe, enabling users to take contact measurements immediately. The thermometers are also compatible with all standard mini-connector type-K thermocouples. MIN, MAX, AVG, and DIF temperature values are captured to help users save inspection time and reduce calculation errors. Audible and visual alarms can be set to instantly alert users of measurements outside of set limits.
The Fluke 568 features a distance-to-spot ratio of 50:1 and the Fluke 566 has a distance-to-spot ratio of 30:1, enabling users to accurately measure small objects or from considerable distances. The adjustable emissivity feature with built-in materials table and numerical settings for common materials allows users to measure a wide variety of surfaces more accurately and to easily compensate for shiny surfaces.
The Fluke 568 can capture and store up to 99 points of data, which can be viewed in the display, or downloaded quickly to a computer via USB connection for later analysis and trending using the included FlukeView Forms software. In this way, it can also be used for realtime, hands-free monitoring of temperatures to troubleshoot processes and equipment.
