Introducing the testo 880 Thermal Imager!

The 880 Thermal Imager is a ground-breaking new imager/camera that will assist you in the inspection of various components for preventive maintenance programs. The 880 quickly identifies these problem areas and documents your findings with special software so corrective actions can be taken. The 880 is also a versatile tool for process uses, such as verifying tank levels, finding faulty traps, and recognizing troubles with vessel and piping insulation.


Production monitoring - Thermal imaging is a popular preventive maintenance tool extensively used for inspecting machinery and troubleshooting processes without time consuming disassembly or costly downtime. Recognizing where the problems lie will let you plan the necessary preventative maintenance program before failure.


Mechanical maintenance - Whether in motors, pumps, compressors, bearings, couplings, belts or rollers, heat generated in moving components often indicates strain from friction due to improper alignment, or insufficient lubrication. The 880 can help you see deteriorating conditions before they become critical and require unexpected downtime for repairs.


Electrical maintenance - Test electronic components with the 880 to verify deviations from expected heat signature patterns. The 880's close focus capability provides an accurate assessment of the smallest elements. The 880 quickly finds loose connections, overloaded circuits, and load imbalances that can be the source of trouble. The 880 is fully radiometric and accurate to within 2ยบ C to provide you with reliable data for analysis. Informed decisions on preventive maintenance are possible when you can target the elements that need servicing.

We displayed this new Thermal Imager at the recent MD&M show where we had a blast sharing, showing and playing with this product! See past blogs for more on the MD&M show.
