The Testo 871 Thermal Imaging Camera has been optimised for professionals conducting daily maintenance or installation tasks within trade and industry. It can be used for the following applications:
- Detecting leaks
- Pinpointing thermal bridges
- Identifying structural defects
- Locating faulty components
- Assessing the damage caused by mould
The Testo 871 Thermal Imaging Camera features an IR resolution of 240 x 180 pixels, meaning that it is able to measure temperatures over a total of 43 200 measuring points. When used with the integrated Testo SuperResolution technology this resolution is increased to 480 x 360 pixels. The Testo 871 Thermal Imaging Camera includes two temperature ranges:
- -30 to +100°C
- 0 to +650°C
Furthermore, this thermography camera is able to detect temperature differences as slight as 0.09°C and will automatically display critical temperatures as hot and cold spots.
In terms of its accuracy, the Testo 871 Thermal Imaging Camera includes an IFOV warner which allows the user to see, on the display, the exact measurement spot, thereby helping to reduce the possibility of measurement errors. In addition to this, it features a Testo ɛ-Assist function which automatically detects and sets the emissivity and reflective temperature, whilst its Testo ScaleAssist function ensures that the thermal image is scaled correctly. These functions also help to reduce the possibility of measurement errors and work to ensure that thermal images remain error-free and comparable.
Thermal images captured using this IR camera can be saved as JPEG files. These files may be uploaded to a PC and analysed using the included Pro Software. Alternatively, the user may connect the Testo 871 Thermal Imaging Camera to his/her iOS or Android device wirelessly via the integrated WLAN radio module. Once connected to the user’s smartphone or tablet, the operator may utilise the free Testo Thermography App to write, save and send reports. He/she may also control the camera remotely using his/her smartphone or tablet as a second display.
Furthermore, the Testo 871 Thermal Imaging Camera includes Bluetooth connectivity and may be used in conjunction with other compatible Testo products, such as the 770-3 Clamp Meter and 605i Thermo-hygrometer (both sold separately), in order to conduct comprehensive inspections. Results may be transmitted between measurement tools via Bluetooth.
Also adding to the versatility of this product is its integrated digital camera which captures ‘real’ images in parallel to the thermal images, allowing the user to verify IR photographs.
The Testo 871 Thermal Imaging Camera is a versatile, comprehensive IR imager, suitable for professional applications.
