1.2 Product Introduction
The handheld Thermography camera is a camera with both optical
images and thermal images. It can do thermometry, video
recording, snapshot capturing, alarm, and it can connect to Wi-Fi.
The built-in high-sensitivity IR detector and high-performance
sensor detects the variation of temperature and measure the
real-time temperature.
The Picture-in-picture technique of the Thermography camera and
the fusion of optical view and thermal view, enhances the details of
the images display. It supports multiple palettes and alarm types.
When the detected temperature in the scene does not match with
the alarm rules, the device alarms by color of the palette mode
automatically. It helps the users to find the risky part and lower
your property loss. The device supports Wi-Fi connection, live
viewing, recording, and capturing, etc.
The handheld Thermography camera is easy to use, and adopts
ergonomic design. It is widely applied to substations, electricity
prevention detection of companies, and reconnaissance survey of
construction field.
