Fluke TiX560 and TiX520 infrared cameras

With a full 180° articulating lens and 5.7″ touch screen, the TiX560 and TiX520 infrared cameras from Fluke let thermographers navigate over, under and around objects to preview and capture images with ease. The cameras are suitable for predictive maintenance, R&D, oil and gas, and utility applications where flexibility and high resolution are essential.

The 5.7″ LCD touch screen features 150% more viewing area compared to a 3.5″ screen. The large screen lets thermographers quickly identify issues while still in the field, as well as easily edit images directly on the camera.

SuperResolution mode boosts resolution four times, so the normal 320 x 240 (76,800 pixel) resolution of the images captured increases to 640 x 480 (307,200 pixels). This reveals even greater detail to better identify problems that might have been missed with lower resolution cameras. Optional telephoto and wide-angle lenses add versatility to meet a wide variety of applications.

Out-of-focus images may produce inaccurate temperature measurements, making it easy to miss potential problems. To ensure consistently in-focus images, the cameras feature LaserSharp Auto Focus, exclusive to Fluke, 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 analytics lets users adjust or enhance images right on the camera without additional software. Also included is Fluke SmartView software, which provides a suite of tools to view, optimise, annotate and analyse infrared images and generate fully customisable professional reports.
