Applications Temperature changes can indicate problems in many areas you see everyday, some include:

• Inside electrical distribution and service (switch gear, panels, controls, fuses, transformers, receptacles, lighting, conductors, overhead buses, motor control centers)
• Motors, pumps and mechanical (electric motors and generators, pumps, compressors, evaporators, bearings, couplings, gearboxes, gaskets/seals, belts, rollers, disconnects)
• Process (tanks and vessels, pipes, valves and traps, reactors, process insulation)
• HVAC/R (air conditioning, heating, air handlers, refrigeration)
• Outside electrical distribution for utilities (transformers, bushings, insulators, transmission lines, other exterior conductors, service connections, disconnects, capacitor banks)

Thermal imaging is a non-contact technology that measures infrared wavelengths to determine temperatures from a safe distance.
A thermal imager displays an image that uses different colors to represent different temperatures. This image makes it quick and easy to visually check surface temperatures
and identify hot spots. Hot spots or a rise in temperature often indicate that a problem exists or a failure could be imminent.
Until recently, thermal imaging was complex and expensive, keeping it in the domain of thermography specialists. Fortunately, recent advances in technology and Fluke engineering have not only lowered the costs but also made imagers easier to use and practical as an everyday troubleshooting tool in harsh work environments.
Diagnostic power- the data behind the picture
All Fluke thermal imagers are fully radiometric. These units not only graphically display temperature differences, they also measure and store temperatures at every point in the image. All these data points can be recalled and used for detailed analysis of a potential problem or just monitoring trends over time of the same location.
Whether you work in an industrial, electrical or commercial facility you can discover if and where a problem exists quickly and easily before contact measurements even need to
be made.
Fluke Thermal Imagers help you find energy saving opportunities. Unexpected temperature differentials can indicate where opportunities exist to increase efficiency and save money.

See things both ways-Infrared and visual (visible light) images fused together communicating critical information faster and easier-traditional infrared images are no longer enough.
Patent-pending IR-Fusion Technology, only available on Fluke thermal imagers, simultaneously captures a digital photo in addition to the infrared image and fuses it together taking the mystery out of IR image analysis.
Images enhanced with IR-Fusion help identify and report suspect or faulty components, enabling repairs to be done, and proving that the problem was corrected effectively.

IR-Fusion-multiple viewing modes
Identify problems quickly using different on-screen modes­the user selects the mode that works best for each situation. While some viewing modes are not included in every model, all are available for viewing and analysis in the included free SmartView™ software.

The Fluke Ti25 and Ti10 are the perfect tools to add to your problem solving arsenal. Built for tough work environments, these high-performance, fully radiometric imagers are ideal for troubleshooting electrical installations, electro-mechanical equipment, process instrumentation, HVAC equipment and others.

Palette - Color representation of the temperatures (temperature scalej in a displayed image. Certain color palettes meet personal preferences or optimize the image for different applications and/or problems. An example of the different palettes appears above right.
Sensor Size - Similar to digital cameras the sensor size describes the amount of displayed points per image of a thermal imager. A sensor size of 160 x 120 captures and displays more than 19,000 measurement points with each measurement. This is more than sufficient for almost all industrial and electrical applications. If the imager is fully radiometric then it also truly measures and stores all captured points with the image.
Field of view (FOV) - The total area, at a given distance, that your imager can see or detect. Spatial Resolution (IFOVj is the smallest object or area, at a given distance, that your imager can detect and obtain an accurate temperature measurement within the Field of View.
Thermal sensitivity - Indicates what the smallest temperature difference is which can be measured/displayed in an image. It basically is the maximum resolution of the image and
is referred to as NETD (noise equivalent temperature difference). A NETD of 200 mK is more than adequate for most industrial and electrical applications.
Emissivity adjustment - All surfaces emit infrared energy or heat. The level of emission varies much per surface and is described with the term emissivity. Painted coatings and materials usually have a high emissivity while polished aluminum has a low emissivity. If you perform qualitative inspections with the imager (most applications) then emissivity does not have to be adjusted. To measure the temperature of a material accurately it will be necessary to adjust for the material's emissivity in specific applications.
Span - The set of temperature values that can be measured within a preset range. Adjusting the span allows you to see more subtle temperature gradients (or contrast) in a captured image. When the span is optimized the imager shows 256 different shades of color in an image.
