Fluke has launched the Fluke 64 MAX IR thermometer with internal memory, unattended monitoring, improved accuracy, increased battery life, as well as the precision needed to do a job accurately. Designed and tested to survive a three-metre drop, this lightweight, compact infrared thermometer works in the harshest of environments, even when unattended. Applications include industrial maintenance, electrical and HVAC industries.
The Fluke 64 MAX IR features:
• Precise laser technology for more accurate and repeatable measurements.
• Temperature accuracy of up to 0°C: ±1°C or ±1% of reading, whichever is greater, with 20:1 distance to spot ratio (64 max).
• Flashlight (64 max) and large, easy to read backlit LCD display for easy viewing, even in dark environments.
• IP54 rating for extra protection against airborne contaminants.
• Set time and desired interval between measurements and auto capture to capture spot temperatures unattended (64 max).
• 99 data point logging (64 max).
• Display of the minimum, maximum or average temperature, or the difference between two measurements.
• Hi and Lo alarms for rapid display of measurements outside set limits.
