It will appeal to those who use IR cameras every day. They will find the ergonomic and lightweight ThermaCAM a joy to use," he said.

Boasting superior integrated imaging and full measurement features, the ThermaCAM T/B series - T for industrial, B for building and construction - is packed full of innovative features that make using the camera a whole loteasier:

• touch screen and sketching feature (using a stylus);
• weighs only 880g;
• excellent infrared image quality (320 X 240 pixel resolution);
• integrated digital camera;

About Infrared Cameras
Infrared cameras detect and measure heat which develops in virtually all electrical, electronic or mechanical applications. Applied on a regular basis, thermal imaging improves product output quality and avoids cost-intensive failure of equipment and systems. High energy costs and relevant energy efficiency legislation drives the application of infrared cameras in the building sector for HVAC issues and building substance assessments.
