HotShot-HD thermal imaging camera

The HotShot-HD (high definition) thermal imaging cameras from Electrophysics Corp offer high-performance 640 x 480 resolution, a dual laser hotspot highlighter and advanced image fusion. They also include a powerful, yet simple-to-use in-built PDA type touch screen and Qwerty keyboard for data entry and data logging functions.

Enter descriptive image file names, asset locations and inspection comments using the Qwerty keyboard and record equipment type, diagnosis, repair recommendations and severity codes via pull-down menus on the data entry screen. Capturing image and inspection information on site, in camera is more reliable, accurate and efficient than traditional methods such as error-prone and inefficient handwritten notes.

Route-based inspection is also supported. Routes can be learned by the camera to provide a survey report, a management tool that ensures the repeatability of future inspections. The route-based method also makes it easier to manage asset histories and look for trendable anomalies.

The cameras feature a temperature range up to 500°C, a high-resolution 640 x 480 VOx microbolometer, 500:1 measurement spot ratio, high-quality megapixel visible light camera, a choice of IR/PIP and Fusion image modes and a dual laser target marking system that guarantees that you are focusing on the hot spot every time.

The HotShot thermal imaging cameras also come with ReportIR automatic report generation software. All the data in the report comes from the image file, which the user generated on site, in camera using the camera's Qwerty keyboard and data entry features, eliminating double entry back in the office. The HotShot's data is downloaded to PC via USB or CF card.
