Introduction

The Fluke Ti200, Ti300, Ti400, Ti450, and Ti480 Thermal Imagers (the Product or Imager) are handheld, infrared imaging cameras for use in many applications. These applications include equipment troubleshooting, preventive and predictive maintenance, building diagnostics, and research and development.
The Imager displays thermal images on a high-visibility, industrial-quality LCD touch screen. The Imager can save images to internal memory, to a removable memory card, or to a USB storage device. Saved images and data stored in internal memory or on the memory card can be transferred to a PC through a direct USB connection to the PC or by wireless transfer to a PC or mobile device.
The Imager includes SmartView software. SmartView is a high-performance, professional software suite for quality analysis and reporting. The Imager works with the Fluke Connect
app available on mobile devices. A rugged, rechargeable lithium-ion smart battery provides power to the Imager. Direct AC
power is accessible with the included AC power adapter.

Safety Information

A Warning identifies hazardous conditions and procedures that are dangerous to the user. A Caution identifies conditions and procedures that can cause damage to the Product or the
equipment under test.
 Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury and for safe operation of the Product:
•
Read all safety information before you use the Product.
•
Carefully read all instructions.
•
Do not alter the Product and use only as specified, or the protection supplied by the Product can be compromised.
•
Replace the batteries when the low battery indicator shows to prevent incorrect measurements.
•
Do not use the Product if it operates incorrectly.
•
Do not use the Product if it is altered or damaged.
•
Disable the Product if it is damaged.
•
See emissivity information for actual temperatures. Reflective objects result in lower than actual temperature measurements. These objects pose a burn hazard.
•
Do not put battery cells and battery packs near heat or fire. Do not put in sunlight.
•
Do not disassemble or crush battery cells and battery packs.
•
Remove batteries to prevent battery leakage and damage to the Product if it is not used for an extended period.
•
Connect the battery charger to the mains power outlet before the charger.
•
Use only Fluke approved power adapters to charge the battery.
•
Keep cells and battery packs clean and dry. Clean dirty connectors with a dry, clean cloth.
2
•
Batteries contain hazardous chemicals that can cause burns or explode. If exposure to chemicals occurs, clean with water and get medical aid.
•
Do not disassemble the battery.
•
Repair the Product before use if the battery leaks.
•
Use only the external mains power supply included with the Product.
•
Do not put metal objects into connectors.
•
Use only specified replacement parts.
•
Have an approved technician repair the Product.
•
Remove the batteries if the Product is not used for an extended period of time, or if stored in temperatures above 50 °C. If the batteries are not removed, battery leakage can damage the Product.
•
Disconnect the battery charger and move the Product or battery to a cool, non-flammable location if the rechargeable battery becomes hot (>50 °C) during the charge period.
Thermal Imagers
Safety Information
•
Replace the rechargeable battery after 5 years of moderate use or 2 years of heavy use. Moderate use is defined as recharged twice a week. Heavy use is defined as discharged to cutoff and recharged daily.
•
Do not short the battery terminals together.
•
Do not keep cells or batteries in a container where the terminals can be shorted.
•
Do not look into the laser. Do not point the laser directly at persons or animals or indirectly off reflective surfaces.
•
Do not look directly into the laser with optical tools (for example, binoculars, telescopes, microscopes). Optical tools can focus the laser and be dangerous to the eye.
•
Do not open the Product. The laser beam is dangerous to eyes. Have the Product repaired only through an approved technical site.
•
Do not use laser viewing glasses as laser protection glasses. Laser viewing glasses are used only for better visibility of the laser in bright light.

Primary and Secondary Triggers

The two-part trigger is located in the standard trigger position for a pistol-grip device. The larger, green trigger is the primary trigger. The smaller, black trigger is the secondary trigger.
In normal operation (video is off), use the primary trigger to capture an image to save or edit. When video is on, use the primary trigger to start/stop recording a video.
The secondary trigger operates the LaserSharp Auto Focus System (see LaserSharp Auto Focus System) and the Laser Pointer/Distance Finder (see Distance).

Basic Operation

Basic Operation

Turn On and Off the Imager

Before you use the Imager for the first time, charge the battery for a minimum of two and one­half hours. See Charge Batteries.
To turn on or turn off the Imager, push and hold for 2 seconds. To maximize the life of the battery, use the Power Save and Auto Off features. See Table 13
for more information about how to set these features.
Note
All thermal imagers need sufficient warm-up time for accurate temperature measurements and best image quality. Warm-up time can vary by model and environmental conditions. Although most imagers are fully warmed up in 3 minutes to 5 minutes, wait a minimum of 10 minutes if the most accurate temperature measurement is important to your application. When you move an Imager between environments with large differences in ambient temperature, allow for additional adjustment time.

Focus

Correct focus makes sure that the infrared energy is correctly directed onto the pixels of the detector. Without correct focus, the thermal image can be blurry and the radiometric data may be inaccurate. Out-of-focus infrared images are frequently unusable or of little value.
To focus with the advanced manual focus system, rotate the Manual Focus Control until the inspection object is in proper focus. Use the advanced manual focus system as an override to the LaserSharp Auto Focus System. See LaserSharp Auto Focus System.

Capture Image

To capture an image:
1. Focus on a target.
2. Pull and release the Primary Trigger or double tap on the display to capture and freeze the
image. The image is in the memory buffer for you to save or edit the image. To edit an image, see
Edit Image. Depending on the selected file format settings, the Imager shows the captured image and a
menu bar. The menu bar shows the available options.
Note
MultiSharp Focus captures and freezes images differently. See MultiSharp Focus.
