Raytek, a Fluke company and a market leader in non-contact infrared thermometry, designed the ThermoView Ti30 as an affordable, fully radiometric thermal imager that expands the use of thermographic inspections to support preventive and predictive maintenance. Specifically intended for infrared preventive and predictive maintenance at industrial and large commercial property sites, the Ti30 thermal imager is the only infrared imaging camera currently available on the market that fully supports thermography inspection routing-key to effective predictive maintenance.
The maintenance technician plans an equipment inspection route, performs a first inspection, and loads the results into the software with identifying names, locations and parameters. The technician, or one of his team members, follows easy, on-camera instructions during subsequent inspections. New images are compared to previous scans of the same equipment using the Fluke InsideIR PC software, alerting users of maintenance issues.
The Fluke Ti30 Thermal Imager is uniquely designed to allow adjustment of critical parameters, such as emissivity, level, gain and palette, either in the field or at the office PC, in the supplied software. In the field, operation can be as simple as pointing the camera at the identified equipment, focusing, and taking the image. Back in the office, the user can then make adjustments as needed in the software to analyse the results and create maintenance reports and work orders.
The Fluke Ti30 Thermal Imager is easy to learn and use, and has enough battery life (five hours minimum) and storage capacity (up to 100 images) for a full day of uninterrupted inspections. The imager comes with the thermal imaging camera, all necessary accessories, unlimited-use InsideIR storage, analysis and reporting software.
Fluke Corporation, a leading international supplier of test and measurement equipment, has added the Raytek ThermoView Ti30 thermal imager to its product line as the Fluke Ti30 thermal imager, and the instrument is only sold through authorised Fluke/Raytek thermography distributors worldwide.
