Fluke has introduced upgraded versions of two of its best-selling infrared cameras. The new Fluke Ti400 PRO and Ti300 PRO Infrared Cameras feature a more intuitive touchscreen interface with a higher contrast display and compatibility with optional smart telephoto, wide-angle and macro lenses which can be interchanged without calibration. The cameras provide fast, one-handed operation to perform multiple inspections quickly and accurately – ideal for predictive/preventive maintenance, for industrial, commercial and HVAC electricians, facilities managers and energy auditors. More information about the new thermal cameras and the rest of the Professional Series of IR cameras can be found at www.fluke.co.uk/ti
Both the Fluke Ti400 PRO, with 320 x 240 resolution, and the Ti300 PRO, with 240 x 180 resolution, feature LaserSharp™ Auto Focus, which, with the touch of a button, uses a built-in laser distance meter to calculate and display the distance to target and snaps the image into focus. An alternative advanced manual focus mode can be used.
They also feature Fluke IR-Fusion® technology, which captures a visible light image in addition to the infrared image and combines them with three different operating modes (Picture-in-Picture, full visible light, and AutoBlend™), and are provided with Fluke Connect SmartView® Desktop Software, for optimising and analysing thermal images, generating customisable reports and exporting images in multiple formats to the Fluke Connect Cloud.
Fluke Connect Compatible
The new infrared cameras integrate into Fluke Connect® - the company’s full-feature platform that permits Fluke tool users to receive, store, visualise, and report electronic measurement data from more than 40 Fluke Connect wireless test tools. This allows technicians to record and share thermal images, along with electrical and other measurements, in real time via their smartphones or tablets and automatically upload them to the cloud.
The Fluke Connect system provides access to maintenance records simultaneously at the inspection site and from the office or an off-site location, enabling faster decision making. It also enables real-time collaboration between team members with ShareLive™ video calls, increasing productivity in the field.
Images sync wirelessly direct from the camera to the Fluke Connect system, so images can be attached to an asset record or work order using optional software. Reports can be created and shared directly from the job site via email.
These two new models follow the earlier introduction of the Ti480 PRO and Ti450 PRO InfraRed Cameras both of which offer some additional features not available on the Ti300PRO and Ti400PRO such as MultiSharp™ Focus and SuperResolution.
