Thermal imagers

18 April 2012 Test & Measurement

Fluke has introduced five new thermal imagers for a range of users, applications and prices. Ruggedly designed, but with a lightweight, slim profile, the instruments can be operated with one hand and offer extended battery life through a lithium ion smart battery.

The Ti110 and Ti125 are designed for plant technicians, HVAC/R professionals and electricians who need to maintain and inspect electrical and mechanical equipment and components. The TiR110 and TiR125 are for building inspection and energy audit professionals evaluating and reporting insulation problems, air leakage, moisture issues or construction defects. The Ti100 is for general applications

All feature new capabilities including IR-OptiFlex focus system, IR-PhotoNotes annotation system, focus-free video, IR-Fusion technology, and SmartView professional IR analysis and reporting software.

Fluke’s patented IR-Fusion technology blends digital and infrared images into a single image to precisely document problem areas. The IR Optiflex Focus system offers automatic focusing with a manual focus option for close-ups, resulting in sharply-focused, accurate images.

Weighing in at just under 0,7 kg, the thermal imager is light, balanced to sit perfectly in the hand, and all buttons are within gloved-thumb reach. It can be aimed either vertically or horizontally and, because it is lightweight, it can be used for long stretches without tiring. Fluke thermal imagers are also designed to withstand drops of up to 2 metres.

Multi-mode video recording allows the user to record focus-free video in visible light and infrared with full IR-Fusion capabilities. The user can monitor processes over time, troubleshoot frame-by-frame, and create infrared video reports.

IR PhotoNotes allows for the capture of up to three digital photos per thermal image file, enabling the exact recording of equipment models, nameplates and other case information. The imagers are equipped with an electronic compass which saves the reading along with the thermal image, pinpointing the location of the problem.

SmartView professional IR analysis and reporting software is a professional suite of analysis and reporting tools for viewing, annotating and editing infrared images. It comes with unlimited licences and free lifetime upgrades.

The new Fluke thermal imagers come complete with AC power adapter, lithium ion smart battery (Ti125 and TiR125 include two each – others one each), USB cable for PC image download, SD memory card, hard carrying case, soft transport bag, adjustable hand strap (left- or right-handed use) and manuals. The Ti125 and TiR125 models also include a two-bay charging base, a multi-function USB memory card reader and a separate, longer USB cable for streaming video use.
