Introduction

The Fluke Ti32, TiR32, Ti29, TiR29, Ti27, and TiR27 Thermal Imagers (hereafter “the Imager”) are handheld thermal imagers used for preventive and predictive maintenance, equipment troubleshooting, repair verification, building inspections, restoration and remediation work, energy audits, and weatherization purposes. The Ti32, Ti29, and Ti27 are optimized for industrial and commercial equipment maintenance, and the TiR32, TiR29, and TiR27 optimized for building envelope inspections and building diagnostics.
The temperature measurement range starts at -20 °C, and goes up to +600 °C for the Ti32, Ti29, and Ti27, and starts at -20 °C and goes up to +150 °C for the TiR32, TiR29, and TiR27. The thermal image can be displayed using any one of a number of standard color palettes or Ultra Contrast color palettes.
All models have IR-Fusion full visual image (640 X 480) can be displayed, blended, and stored with each IR image. Thermal and visual images can be presented simultaneously as a full thermal image or as a Picture-In-Picture (PIP) image in various blend modes.
®
technology, only available from Fluke, where a
Thermal and visual images are displayed on the Imager LCD and can be saved to a removable SD memory card. Transferring images to a PC is accomplished by removing the SD memory card and connecting it to a PC through the included, multi-format USB card reader. SmartView image analysis and report generation from these saved images.
Imager power is supplied by one of two included, field-swappable, rechargeable Lithium-ion smart battery packs, with 4+ hours of continuous operation each.
In addition to the features mentioned above, the Imagers provide voice recording capabilities for annotating saved images, emissivity correction, reflected background temperature compensation, transmission correction, and many other useful, easy-to-use features.

Charging the Battery

Before using the Imager for the first time, charge the batteries in the included two-bay charging base for at least two and one-half hours. The charging status of each battery will be shown on the five-segment battery charge indicator on each battery.
Note
New batteries are not fully charged. Two to ten normal charging/discharging cycles may be required before the battery charges to its maximum capacity.
To charge the Imager’s battery, select one of the options that follow:

Two-Bay Charging Base

1. Plug the ac power supply into an ac wall outlet and connect dc output
to charging base.
2. Insert one or two smart batteries into bays of charging base.
3. Charge batteries until charge indicators show “full”.

Thermal Imagers
Turning the Imager On and Off
4. Remove smart batteries and unplug power supply when batteries are
fully charged.

On-Imager AC Power Socket

1. Plug the ac power supply into an ac wall outlet and connect dc output
to the Imager’s ac power socket.
2. Charge until on-screen indicator shows “full”.
3. Disconnect ac power supply when smart battery is fully charged.
Note
Ensure the Imager is near room temperature before connecting it to the charger. See the charging temperature specification. Do not charge the Imager in hot or cold places. Charging in extreme temperatures reduces the battery pack’s ability to hold a charge
While the battery is charging, the battery icon appears as while the Imager is operating. With the Imager off, appears in the display while connected to the battery charger.
Keep the Imager attached to the charger until the battery condition icon indicates a full charge. With the Imager off, the battery charge icon will have four full bars. With the Imager on, turn the Imager off to view the battery condition icon. Removing the Imager from the charger before a full charge is indicated will deprive the battery of a full charge and thus shorten the run time

How to Install and Use Optional Lenses (Telephoto and Wide-Angle)

The Imager is an extremely sensitive device that can detect temperature differences 50mK (0.05 °C). It allows minimum spans as low as 2 °C in many operating modes. Special palettes and palette modes are also offered in order to enhance and highlight very small thermal differences in a scene. In addition, optional telephoto and wide angle lenses are available to further enhance the anomaly detecting capability of the imagers.
Every effort is undertaken to produce a high quality, and radiometrically accurate infrared image under as many circumstances as possible. However, there are often extreme use situations under which the infrared energy being emitted from a target of interest is so small that the Imager reaches the limits of the physical (physics) properties, which govern its operation. Using the imager under these circumstances, can at times result in the appearance of light rings or a halo on the infrared image. This is completely normal.
Although it is possible to mitigate these artifacts by artificially adding electronic noise and additional processing to the infrared signal, Fluke has
13
www.GlobalTestSupply.com
Ti32, TiR32, Ti29, TiR29, Ti27, TiR27
Users Manual
chosen not to do so in order to preserve the extreme sensitivity of the instrument. If any of these artifacts do appear in your properly focused infrared image, please be assured that it is only because there is not enough of a thermal differential in the scene to indicate the presence of an anomaly or issue. In essence, the imager is so sensitive, that it is “seeing itself” optically, radiometrically, and electronically. Typically, increasing span, changing color palette, or introducing a thermal differential into the scene will eliminate the appearance of any artifacts, and will still allow the appropriate interpretation of the infrared image.
Optional telephoto and wide-angle lenses expand the flexibility and allow more applications for your infrared inspection work.
To install and use an optional lens on the Imager:
1. With your Imager OFF, insert the SD memory card with firmware codes
for your optional lens into the SD memory card slot on the side of your Imager.
2. Turn on the Imager by pressing .
3. Follow directions displayed on the LCD to install the proper files onto the
Imager’s internal memory.
4. After file installation, remove the SD memory card with the firmware files
and reinsert the standard SD memory card used for storing images.
5. Attach the optional lens onto the Imager by aligning the dot on the lens
with the dot on the Imager, see Figure 1.
6. Gently push optional lens into position and rotate clockwise until lens
locks into proper position.
Note
It is important to select the proper lens option within your Imager’s Settings/Lens menu.

Making Accurate Temperature Measurements

All objects on Earth radiate infrared energy. The amount of energy radiated is based on two primary factors: the surface temperature of the object and the emissivity of the object's surface. The Imager detects the infrared energy from an object and uses this information to estimate the temperature of the object. Most of the objects measured such as painted metal, wood, water, skin, and cloth are very efficient at radiating energy and it is easy to get very accurate measurements.
For surfaces that are efficient at radiating energy (high emissivity), the emissivity factor is estimated to be 95% (or 0.95). This estimate works for most purposes. This simplification does not work however, on shiny surfaces or unpainted metals. These materials are not efficient at radiating energy and are classified as having low emissivity. To accurately obtain a temperature
24
www.GlobalTestSupply.com
Thermal Imagers
Setting Emissivity
measurement on materials with a low emissivity, an emissivity correction is often necessary. The easiest correction method is to set the Imager to the proper emissivity value so the Imager automatically calculates a corrected surface temperature. If the Imager uses a fixed emissivity value (meaning that it is set to one value and the user cannot adjust it), then the Imager’s measurement must be multiplied by a value found in a look up table to get a more accurate estimate of the actual temperature.
Regardless of an Imager’s ability to adjust for emissivity in calculating temperature measurements, surfaces with an emissivity of 0.60, or lower, are often difficult to obtain truly accurate temperature measurements without significant error. It is always best to change or improve the emissivity of a surface when possible if accurate temperature measurements are required.
The Imager has the ability to set emissivity by directly entering a value or using a table of built-in values. Much information is available on emissivity. Further study of this topic is recommended to get the most accurate temperature measurements using the Imager.
Note
All thermal imagers require appropriate warm-up time in order to obtain the most accurate temperature measurement and best image quality. This time can often vary by model and by environmental conditions. Although most imagers are fully warmed-up within 3-5 minutes, it is always a best practice to wait at least 10 minutes if the most accurate temperature measurement is critical to your application. Whenever changing or adding optional lenses, additional stabilization time may be required depending on the situation.

Setting Emissivity

Setting your Imager with correct emissivity values is critical to making accurate temperature measurements. To set the emissivity value:
1. Press until Emissivity appears over .
2. Press the softkey labeled Emissivity.
At this point, emissivity can be set directly as a value or selected from a list of emissivity values for some common materials. To select from a list of common materials:
1. Press the softkey labeled Table.

Setting Reflected Background Temperature (Reflected Temperature Compensation)
Compensation for reflected background temperature on the Imager is set in the Background tab. Very hot or very cold objects may affect the temperature measurement accuracy of the target or object of interest, especially when surface emissivity is low. Adjustment of the reflected background temperature setting may improve temperature measurement accuracy.
1. Press until Background appears over .
2. Press softkey labeled Background.
3. Use the softkey labeled Up or Down to adjust the reflected background
temperature.

Maintenance

The Imager supplies maintenance-free operation. However, some precautions should be followed to get the best and longest Imager performance.

Cleaning the Imager

Wipe the case with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Do not use abrasives, isopropyl alcohol, or solvents to clean the case or lens/window.

Cleaning the Infrared Lens

If used and stored properly, the infrared lens on your Imager should require only occasional cleaning. When cleaning is necessary, observe these steps:
1. Using a hand-operated air bulb, gently blow off any dust or debris from
the lens surface.
2. If the surface of the lens still requires additional cleaning after the first
step, use a clean, fine-fiber or micro-fiber cloth, dampened with a mild, soapy water solution. Gently wipe surface of lens to remove remaining smudges, debris, or grime.
3. Dry with an absorbent, clean, fine-fiber or micro-fiber cloth.
Note
Minor smudges and grime should not significantly affect the performance of the Imager. However, large scratches or the removal of the protective coating on your infrared lens may affect both image quality and the temperature measurement accuracy.
Note
Use of alcohol, abrasives, solvents, or harsh detergents could damage not only the protective optical coating on the infrared lens, but also the sealing materials, rubber components, and adhesives in the lens assembly. Use of these items to clean the Imager or thermal lens will void the warranty.
