Any object with a temperature above absolute zero (approximately -273ºC) emits infrared radiation, and this, in turn, can not be seen by the human eye. The Testo 880 is an affordable thermal imaging camera, which converts infrared radiation into electronic signals, and subsequently displays a thermal image on a large, 3.5" screen.
Thanks to a 160 x 120 infrared image resolution - coupled together with intelligent interpolation technology to automatically upscale the image to 320 x 240 - this camera is capable of highlighting even the smallest of temperature differences, and offers excellent image quality in the process.
Since Testo also manufacture a range of products for a variety of other applications and industries, they have taken this opportunity to integrate some new and unique features. For example, the Testo 880 can easily measure surface humidity (to identify mould-risk areas) by way of an optional wireless probe.
Some of the features of the four models available include...
- Wide-angle lens as standard, which is ideal for inspections in tight areas
- A telescopic lens is optionally available (selected models only)
- Integrated digital camera and lamp, with a 640 x 480 image resolution (selected models only)
- Eight colour palettes and two measurement spots
- A calibrated temperature range of -20ºC to 350ºC
- Optional lens protection glass, to help protect against dust and scratches
- Two customisable buttons for quick access to important functions
- Includes an SD card, which can store approximately 1,000 digital or infrared images
- Motorised focusing enables one-handed operation (selected models only)
- And the emissivity can be adjusted (includes 9 pre-sets)
This camera also includes PC software, which allows the operator to quickly download images (digital and infrared images are seamlessly paired together), organise them and report the findings to colleagues or clients. This software also includes analysis features (e.g. graphs for trending), multiple report templates and extensive export options.
