thermoIMAGER TIM
Compact Thermal Imager

thermoIMAGER TIM Features

Automatic hot spot detection

Objects can be examinated thermally and hot or cold positions (hot or cold spots) can be found automatically.

Fast measurements
Temperature distributions at surfaces can be captured precisely within an millisecond intervall.

Easy process integration

Advanced interface concepts allow the integration within networks and automated systems:  USB cable extension up to 100m (over Ethernet) or 10km (over fibre)  Process interface (PIF) at the camera as analog input / output (0 to 10V) and digital input (low and high-level)  Software interface via Dynamic-link Library (DLL),  Serial data communication via RS232 Computer-Port (ComPort)  incl. LabVIEW interface/port
USB 2.0 over 10km (Singlemode Fiber Optics)

Software Features
Automatic process and quality control  Individual setup of alarm levels depending on the process  BI-SPECTRAL process monitoring (IR and VIS) for easy orientation at point of measurement (TIM 200/230)  Line-scan camera function to control processes of moving measurement objects  Definition of visual or acoustic alarms and analog data output via the process interface  Analog and digital signal input (process parameter)  External communication of software via Comports, DLL and LabVIEW driver  Compatible with Windows XP and 7 as well as LabVIEW

thermoIMAGER TIM 200/230 BI-SPECTRAL technology

With the help of BI-SPECTRAL technology, a visual image (VIS) can be combined with a thermal image (IR). Both can be finally captured time synchronously:

Monitoring modus: Easy orientation at point of measurement

thermoIMAGER TIM Connect Software - conveyor of living embers

Cross-fading modus: Highlighting of critical temperatures

thermoIMAGER TIM Connect Software - tires
