With the introduction from Armstrong Optical of Northampton of the new ThermoPro TP8 the bar has been raised once again in the thermography stakes.
Object emissivity, single and multiple point temperatures, isotherms, max/min and electronic zoom are all standard functions ensuring comprehensive probing for, and pinpointing of, potential thermal variations.
With 8Gb of on-board data storage for thermal and visible images plus up to 180 seconds of voice annotation per image pair, the MobIR M4 camera is well able to operate as a stand-alone system.
However, for complete data security, the stored data can be easily transferred to a PC system via the built-in USB interface.
Bundled with the camera is a suite of Windows-based post-processing software offering an extensive range of temperature measurement, image processing and report generating functions.
The new MobIR M4 is more sensitive, more accurate, offers more choice and contains more standard features than any other camera within its price range.
The MobIR M4 has already shown itself to be ideal for applications such as energy management and building surveys, analysis of storage/reactor tank levels and insulation, pipe blockage, motor and pump bearings, overheating electrical switchgear, transformers, bus-bars and power lines, medical/veterinary thermography plus many, many more.
Additionally, for those requiring even more choice, the MobIR M4 is available in four colours.
"The new MobIR M4 system brings the benefits of real-time thermal imaging and thermography to many, many more users", asserts Ian Johnstone, Sales and Marketing Director at Armstrong Optical .
"Now price need never be an obstacle when it comes to thermal imaging - the MobIR M4 represents the best value for money compared to any other similarly specified system on the market today".
