It enables maintenance teams to carry out enhanced infrared inspections and make quick temperature scans of electrical equipment, machinery, or specific pumps and motors, thereby helping in the effort to minimise equipment downtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A key feature of the fully radiometric unit is its 3.5-inch LCD touchscreen, together with its IR fusion ability, which enables the automatic and simultaneous capture of a digital visible-light image along with an infrared image.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Users can blend the resulting image from full infrared to full visible light by simply sliding their finger across the screen, enabling the fast location of problem areas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Delivering measurement data right down to the pixel level, the unit offers a 120 x 90-pixel infrared resolution for a total of 10,800 pixels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/uk.rs-online.com\/web\/c\/test-measurement\/temperature-measurement\/thermal-imaging-cameras\/?applied-dimensions=4291338445\">PTi120 imager<\/a><\/strong> is a highly rugged device that comes in an IP54-rated enclosure, enabling it to resist dirt and water ingress, and withstand being dropped from a height of up to 1m. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other key specifications include: field of view of 50\u00b0(H) x 38\u00b0(V); a temperature measurement range from \u201320 to +150\u00b0C, with an accuracy of \u00b12\u00b0C; and battery life of more than two hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When used in conjunction with Fluke\u2019s Connect Desktop software and its \u2018Asset Tagging\u2019 capability, users can also scan an asset\u2019s barcode or QR code, which enables the storing of a captured IR image along with date\/time information to predefined folders. This data can be sent via WiFi or USB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shipping now from RS in the EMEA and Asia Pacific regions, the Fluke PTi120 comes with a two-year warranty as standard, as well as a USB cable for charging and data transfer, and a soft transport bag and an adjustable lanyard.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Fluke Connect Desktop software and user manual are available free via download.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RS Components (RS) has announced availability of the latest thermal imaging device from Fluke, makers of electronic test tools and software for professionals.&nbsp; The new and highly innovative PTi120 is the manufacturer\u2019s first pocket-sized unit and targets troubleshooting and predictive maintenance applications for a wide range of industrial market sectors.
