Testo 890 Professional Thermal Imaging Camera with 1 Lens - 0563 0890 X1

The thermal imager testo 890 offers outstanding image quality for the highest thermographic demands. Thanks to the high-quality infrared measurement system with a 640 x 480-pixel detector, thermal images can be recorded in megapixel quality (1290 x 960) using the SuperResolution technology. This means that even the smallest measurement objects such as electronic components or far distant measurement objects, e.g. on industrial plants, can be safely recorded thermographically in best image quality and high resolution. Even thermal processes can be precisely analyzed over time using the fully radiometric video measurement: all measurement points of the thermal image are available, accurate to the pixel, at all times.

Key Features

• Testo 890 professional thermal imager: resolution 640 × 480 pixels, upgradable to 1280 × 960 pixels with SuperResolution technology, thermal sensitivity < 40 mK
• Choice of lens between standard, 25° and telephoto lens – you are free to choose one lens
• Integrated digital camera, optionally exchangeable lenses, many more features, large scope of delivery including transport case, memory card, professional software, etc.
• Sequence capturing in the instrument a possible option, humidity calculation, SiteRecognition, panorama image assistant, JPEG storage function and other practical features

The testo 890 thermal imager means you are ideally equipped both for professional industrial thermography and for building thermography: e.g. for inspecting voltage systems, high-temperature measurement, circuit board analysis, control of solar plants, complete building shell thermography and building thermography for energy consultancy.

Features and Capabilities

All the important information about the testo 890 thermal imager

• Up to 307,200 temperature measuring points: a detector size of 640 x 480 pixels guarantees accurate detection. SuperResolution technology even boosts image quality to 1280 x 960 pixels!
• Thermal sensitivity < 40 mK: even the smallest temperature differences can now be seen
• You can also choose to save thermal images as JPEGs
• Process analysis package (optional): the combination of fully radiometric video and sequence capturing in the camera enables wireless measurement and easier handling at the measuring location
• The camcorder design with wrist strap, along with the rotatable, fold-out display, makes taking images considerably easier. This makes it possible for a wide variety of camera angles, as well as one-hand operation
• Panorama image assistant: individual images are combined into a panoramic image as soon as they are taken. This means, for instance, that you can take thermal images of entire building shells without having to laboriously compile them or assess them individually
• SiteRecognition technology: with similar measurement objects, the thermal imager identifies measuring locations immediately, assigns them automatically and archives them accordingly
• Optional high-temperature measurement up to 1,200°C: with the high-temperature option, the measuring range can be flexibly extended up to 1,200°C
• Special measuring mode for detecting areas susceptible to mould: the dewpoint in the room is calculated by manually entering the ambient temperature and humidity. The surface temperature value measured by the camera is then compared to the dewpoint. The display now shows the risk of mould in traffic light colours (red, yellow, green). The optional radio humidity probe makes things easier: automatic transmission of readings means that manual input of humidity and ambient temperature is no longer needed
• FeverDetection (optional): use the assistant to check people for high body temperature in public places and in means of transport – for public health protection
• Voice recording (as comments on the images) possible with headset which is included in the scope of delivery
• Integrated digital camera with power LEDs: you can take well-lit, real images to go with every thermal image - making documentation and assignment easier
• Auto-focus for easy one-hand operation and less blurred images
• Lens exchange possible
• Analyze thermographic readings directly on the PC with the testo IRSoft professional software
• Minimum focus distance 10 cm

Application

The testo 890 professional thermal imager means you are ideally equipped for the following applications:

Preventive maintenance
Ideal for the early identification of imminent malfunctions or defects on plants and machines: Reliably record temperature increases with a thermal imager.
 - Fast detection of critical thermal status (so-called HotSpots) during continuing operation
 - Avoid expensive damage, downtimes and fire risks on plants and machines
 - Electrical maintenance:
          Test switching cabinets, electrical conditions, photovoltaic plants
          Evaluate heat status in low, medium and high voltage plants
 - Mechanical maintenance:
          Identify wear on machines
         Test motors, bearings, shafts

Detecting structural defects and ensuring construction quality
- Detect potential building defects, prove quality and the implementation of construction measures without contact – with the help of thermal images
- Test air-tightness of windows and doors
- Locate insulation errors and cold bridges in a building shell
- Detect and visualize mould-risk areas

Professional energy consultation
- Analyze building shells, evaluate energy efficiency, identify energy-saving potential with a thermal imager from Testo
- Easy recording and documentation of energy loss from buildings
- Prove faulty insulation and cold bridges without contact, and visualize them in an infrared image

Present and analyze building shells in an image
- Detailed thermography of large buildings
- Visualize thermal irregularities in a building shell – in a thermal image: The panorama assistant stitches several recordings together to one overall image

Preventing mould formation
- Localize mould-risk areas quickly and easily: These areas are presented in red in the imager display when the imager is in humidity mode

Easy checking of heating systems and installations
- Test heating and air conditioning/ventilation systems: Use a thermal imager to identify irregularities in the temperature distribution quickly and easily
- Localization of the course of heating loops in underfloor heating systems
