Handheld imager seeks out the hot spots
January 1st 2009 Athermography solution for
the predictive maintenance
of electrical and mechanical
systems is available from Ideal. The
new handheld HeatSeeker thermal
imager is less cumbersome to use
than many traditional thermal
imagers and is designed to meet the
stringent standards for performance
set by professional electricians,
engineers and building inspectors.
"Whether you're troubleshooting
an industrial pump or checking air
distribution in a duct, you want a
thermal imager you can depend on
to work quickly and accurately,"
explains Tony Kumeta, General
European Manager of Ideal
Industries (UK). "We engineered the
HeatSeeker to ensure a precise,
highly functional diagnostic tool that
was simple to use for detection and
post-analysis."
HeatSeeker has an Auto Hot/Cold
Tracker, that automatically pinpoints
hottest and coldest temperatures
within a single screen by highlighting
both with dual cursors. A quick scan
identifies current or potential
problems, such as overloaded circuits,
inefficient heat transfer, moisture
leakage, or fluid distribution for a
stuck valve, helping lower
maintenance costs. More articles from Ideal Industries (UK) Ltd: |
