Focusing on accuracy
With a full 180° articulating lens and 14.5cm touchscreen, the new Fluke TiX520 and TiX560 infrared cameras allow thermographers to easily navigate over, under, and around objects to preview and capture images. The Expert Series cameras are suitable for predictive maintenance, in R&D, oil and gas, and utility applications, where flexibility and higher resolution are essential, and enable users to share data in real time via Fluke Connect.

The 14.5cm LCD touchscreens offer a large viewing area, which enables thermographers to quickly identify issues while still in the field, as well as easily edit images directly on the camera, eliminating time in the office. SuperResolution mode boosts resolution four times, so the normal 320 x 240 pixels resolution of the images captured increases to 640 x 480 pixels, revealing even greater detail. Optional telephoto and wide-angle lenses add versatility to meet a wide variety of applications.
Out of focus images may produce inaccurate temperature measurements that can be off by as much as 20°, making it easy to miss potential problems. To ensure consistently in-focus images, the cameras feature LaserSharp Auto Focus, which uses a built-in laser distance meter to pinpoint the target, and accurately calculate and display the distance.
The cameras also feature Fluke IR-Fusion technology with Picture-in-Picture, full visible light, and AutoBlend modes for easier identification and reporting of problems. On-board advanced analytics allow users to adjust or enhance images right on the camera without additional software. Also included is Fluke SmartView software, which provides a suite of advanced tools to view, optimise, annotate, and analyse infrared images, and generate fully customisable professional reports.
