Pocket portable thermal camera
18 February 2016
Thermal imaging has become a key technology for diagnosing mechanical and electrical faults and also for spotting energy loss and other building problems. Not every application, however, needs to be pursued with a fully featured infrared camera and this is why FLIR Systems has introduced its TG130.
Priced at £181 (ex VAT), this new Spot Thermal Camera features the FLIR Lepton core that is the size of a smart phone SIM card. This makes the TG130 lightweight, ergonomic and pocket portable so it is always available for instant troubleshooting. Simply aim the instrument at a target object or surface to measure the temperature, then click the trigger to freeze and view the image.
The FLIR TG130 is suitable for spotting thermal anomalies which can then be flagged for more detailed thermal inspection. The same unit can be used for looking at heat loss, bad electrical connections, HVAC performance and source water leaks.
