Fluke VT02 Visual IR Thermometer

The Fluke VT02 Visual IR Thermometer is a troubleshooting camera with an infrared heat map. It is designed to fill the gap between single-point infrared thermometers and high-resolution thermal imagers, for when a single-spot temperature reading isn’t enough and a high-resolution thermal image is more than users need. One tool combines the visual insight of a thermal imager, the visual images of a digital camera, and the point-and-shoot convenience of an IR thermometer.

Conducting inspections for electrical, industrial, HVAC/R and automotive applications is faster with the camera than an infrared thermometer, which requires multiple readings and manually recorded results. The camera instantly detects problems using blended thermal and digital imagery. It will display and save images as full visual, full infrared, or in three blended modes (25, 50, and 75 per cent). Markers pinpoint hot and cold spots indicating the hottest temperature with a red box and the coldest with a blue box. A temperature reading is provided at the centre point. Images are saved to the micro-SD card, eliminating the need to write down single or multiple measurements.

Images from the camera can be imported into the included SmartView analysis and reporting software, to produce professional reports that document problems detected or repairs made for management and customer review.
