Introduction
The Raytek ThermoViewTi30 imager is a state-of-the-art, lightweight, gun-grip
style thermal imaging unit that lets you obtain instant and accurate thermal images
and radiometric readings at a remote distance from your target. Ergonomically
designed for either left or right-handed use, the ThermoView imager captures
thermal images and data with a simple click of the trigger. The unit can store up to
100 images that can then be downloaded to your personal computer where the
images can be stored, evaluated further or added to reports and presentations.
The ThermoView’s docking station allows effortless connection to a host computer,
and offers rapid data downloading and uploading. The docking station also
automatically recharges the (rechargeable) batteries when the unit is not in use.
The companion software application, InsideIR, included with the imager lets you
display, examine, and analyze your images and data to discover qualitative and
quantitative trends associated with the target. InsideIR software allows you to define
maintenance databases based on your specific equipment condition, monitoring, and
asset management needs.
The ThermoView imager contains 100 image storage locations that can also be
predefined with unique equipment data and parameters. Notes and comments can
also be included for the technician performing the given maintenance routine.
Maintenance reports and follow-up actions can be created quickly and accurately
using information carried over from image files. Reports can be easily printed or sent
electronically.
Using the ThermoView imager’s structured database, maintenance professionals can
ensure consistent, repeatable measurements over time. They can efficiently and
accurately communicate with co-workers, management, equipment manufacturers,
and service providers by incorporating thermal images in emails and reports. In
addition, customers can easily create permanent inspection records indicating
temperature behavior before and after repairs, and monitor thermal trends over long
periods.
We are confident the ThermoView Ti30 imager is both an easy-to-use, yet powerful,
thermal imaging tool on the market today. We know you will find it a valuable and
indispensable tool for your workplace and for your professional growth.
