Low Cost, Entry-Level Miniature Portable Thermal Imager
The new low cost, high performance Land Guide M3 thermal imager is described as robust, ergonomically designed and easy to operate.
It is claimed to be the ideal choice for an ever-increasing variety of industrial thermal imaging applications.
Land Guide M3 provides a wide range of unique features and benefits enabling thermographers and plant engineers to operate more efficiently and economically than ever before.
The compact design offers advanced features such as finger-tip controls, high quality thermal images with voice annotation, on-board image processing, 100 image capacity memory and versatile USB connectivity at an affordable price.
With a temperature measurement range of -20°C to 250°C (-4°F to 482°F) and sensitivity of 0.12°C (0.22°F), the Land M3 thermal imager detects extremely small temperature differences as high resolution, 8-bit thermal images.
Simultaneous spot and area analysis, line profile, isotherm analysis and electronic zoom function simplify the identification of potential problems.
A cursor automatically tracks and indicates the position and temperature of the hottest spot within the image. A second cursor in the image centre is used to indicate the temperature and provide a reference for inspection analysis. Meanwhile, a built-in laser locator helps to accurately pinpoint hot spots.
An audible alarm automatically triggers when a temperature spot exceeds a preset value or when the battery power is low.
The unit features storage of up to 100 complete radiometric images in the camera. Each file can consist of a thermal image together with voice annotation if required.
Offering an extensive range of temperature measurement, image processing and report generating functions, the easy to operate Windows(tm)-based software automates the process of reporting and archiving infrared images, improving the productivity and efficiency of thermographers and maintenance engineers.
