RENT FLUKE TI55FT-20

The Fluke Ti55FT Thermal Imager features everything needed for virtually every thermography task. With a 320 x 240 detector and a temperature sensitivity of 0.05 ºC (NETD) it delivers high resolution images where even the smallest temperature differences can be seen. The Fluke TI55FT-20 is extremely easy to use through the Windows® CE menu structure and offer an extended troubleshooting feature set to allow on the spot analysis in the field.

The FT models feature the innovative IR-Fusion™ technology. IR-Fusion captures a visible light image in addition to the infrared image and takes the mystery out of IR image analysis. It helps to better identify and report suspect components and enable the repair to be done right the first time. To find out more select IR-Fusion on the link located on the top of this page.

Fluke IR-Fusion™ technology (available on the Ti55FT-20 model) links a real world visual image with a thermal image. It merges the two images into one, with the possibility to blend between the two images or create picture-in-picture combinations. Alarm limits can be superimposed over the visible light image to exactly pinpoint the components exceeding a specified temperature limit. Both the visual images and thermal images are available for use in reports. This speeds up documentation by reducing the need to look for individual images taken with a separate digital camera. IR-Fusion helps to better identify and report suspect components and enable the repair to be done right the first time.

Thanks to the largest display (five-inch) available on this type of thermal imager in combination with low-noise VOx sensors, the Fluke IR FlexCam units produce exceptionally high-quality images making even the smallest temperature differences visible. This is comparable with images normally only obtained on far more expensive instruments.

The innovative 180 ° articulating lens makes it possible to view and capture images in areas with poor accessibility. The display remains clearly visible while viewing over high objects, under a machine or around immoveable obstructions. The SmartFocus wheel simplifies getting a stable and sharp image. No need to take your hand off the instrument to turn a focus ring.

Thanks to built-in functions like AutoCapture, the IR FlexCam Thermal Imagers help to troubleshoot difficult problems. The instrument is easily set up to automatically capture only those images where a temperature limit is exceeded. This way, difficult to find intermittent problems can be captured and analyzed quicker by concentrating only on the images containing the anomalies.

The SmartView™ software (supplied with the Fluke Ti50FT-20 and Ti55FT-20) includes a complete range of infrared image viewing, analysis, annotation and reporting tools. It even allows for customized reports to accommodate specific company work processes or requirements like multiple image reporting and comparisons. 

Fully radiometric thermal imagers capture and store calibrated temperature data for the matrix of thousands of points that make up a thermal image. This makes it possible to perform detailed analysis and change key parameters like emissivity or temperature range either in the field on the camera or in the office using the PC software.
