The Testo 885-2-DELUXE (0563 0885 73) Automatic Focus Thermal Imager uses a rotating touch screen and swivel grip that can be vital for capturing proper images. The high sensitivity 30mK and 320 x 240 resolution make this imager extremely versatile in any inspection or research program.

The 885-2 Deluxe kit includes an 11-degree telephoto lens, bridging the distance making objects much easier to view. With the use of the Site Recognition barcode and database solution, ensuring that images are properly stored in the correct location has never been easier. Add to all of this the ability of Radiometric Video Capture, for detailed frame by frame post analysis and trending, the 885-2 Deluxe is in a class by itself.

Applications

Reliable High Temperature Measurement

Testo thermal imagers such as the 885-2 adapt to the requirements for applications with high temperatures. With the high temperature option, the measuring range can be flexibly extended up to 1,200 °C . The high-contrast presentation on the display is achieved via the high-temperature iron HT color palette or the special histogram adjustment.

Electrical Maintenance Checks

The 885-2 Thermal Imager can be used to spot overheating components in the low, medium, and high voltage systems. Thermal images help to locate parts that are either failing or exposed to imbalanced loads. Routine thermal scans are used to prevent outages and fire risks.

Monitoring and Checking Solar Energy Systems

There are two main reasons for inspecting solar energy systems: safety and performance monitoring. Solar energy systems achieve their top performance in full sun. Testo thermal imagers such as the 885-2 can be used to monitor photovoltaic systems of all sizes in a way that is wide-ranging, contact-free and exceptionally efficient. Malfunctions are detected, the proper functioning of all components is ensured and the greatest possible efficiency is thus achieved. Additional reliability is also achieved through the ability to enter the key measurement parameter of solar radiation intensity: the value entered is stored with the thermal image and is then available for the image analysis.

Analyzing Building Shells at a Glance

The task of taking thermal images of large buildings poses several challenges for users. Spatial restrictions due to walls, roads or safety zones around neighboring buildings can make it impossible to capture the measuring object in a single image. In such cases, Testo thermal imagers such as the 885-2 help users obtain the necessary overview. The panorama image assistant can be used to combine several images of the building shell taken at close range into a single thermal image. Users can therefore identify thermal irregularities at a glance across the entire building shell with a high degree of detail.

Making it Possible to See Critical Temperatures on Circuit Boards Precisely

In the field of research and development, thermal imagers are also used for the targeted analysis of temperature distribution, such as on circuit boards. Electronic components on circuit boards are getting smaller and smaller - thus increasing the challenges with regard to heat dissipation. Only premium-quality thermal imagers like the Testo 885-1 with a really fine geometric resolution are suitable for this task. Analysis of the heating and cooling behavior over time is also helpful for optimization and this can be carried out using the 885-2 thermal imager's video measurement.

Providing Comprehensive Energy Advice

In building thermography, infrared technology is particularly suited for quick and effective analysis of energy losses in buildings’ heating or air conditioning systems. Due to their high temperature resolution, Testo thermal imagers like the 885-2 provide detailed images of inadequate insulation and thermal bridges. They are ideal for the recording and documentation of energy losses on outer windows and doors, radiator niches, in roof structures or the entire building shell. Testo thermal imagers are the perfect measuring tool for comprehensive diagnoses and maintenance uses, and providing energy consultation services.
