    Thermal Imagers for every application: there is no device that is as versatile as a testo Thermal Imager.

    Making temperatures visible with the help of thermography makes your work easier in these applications, among others:

    • In building thermography a Testo Thermal Imager helps you to detect thermal bridges and structural defects.

    • In heating construction, you can use testo Thermal Imagers to check the function of underfloor heating systems, or detect leaks non-destructively.

    • In maintenance a testo Thermal Imager enables you to see wear before systems fail.

    Precise thermal visualization with powerful features

    Thermal imagers are measuring instruments that allow you to visualize temperatures without physically touching the object.

    Thermal imagers, also known as thermographic cameras or thermal cameras, detect the infrared (IR) radiation emitted by an object and visualize it in real time as a thermogram. This radiation is a form of electromagnetic wave and is invisible to the human eye.

    As a result, thermal imagers provide an efficient, non-contact method of visualizing and analyzing temperature distributions and varying levels of heat. The technical term for this process is thermography.

    Thermal imaging applications

    Thermal imagers are used in a wide range of industries due to their versatility. Applications include:

    How do thermal imagers work?

    Thermal imagers work by capturing the infrared radiation emitted by objects. Simply put, the thermal imager captures this radiation and converts it into an infrared thermal image, where the different temperatures are represented as colour variations.

    How a thermal imager works in detail

    Purchasing criteria for thermal imagers

    Are you thinking of buying a thermal imager? Here's what to look for:

    Thermal sensitivity of less than 120 mK (makes temperature differences of 0.12 °C visible)

    Also known as thermal resolution and measured in millikelvin (mK), this is the smallest temperature difference that the thermal imager can detect.

    Manual focus

    Check that the thermal imager offers manual focus. Manual focus allows more precise adjustment of the focus on the target, which is especially important at varying distances.

    Interchangeable lenses

    Interchangeable lenses greatly increase the versatility of your thermal imager. Wide-angle lenses are ideal for covering large areas from close range, while telephoto lenses are useful for detailed inspection of smaller areas from a greater distance. Make sure the imager offers compatible options for different lens types.
