Testo 883-1 Thermal Imaging Camera Kit 0563 8830

Testo 883-1 Thermal Imaging Camera Kit

The Testo 883-1 Thermal Imaging Camera Kit is built to rapidly and reliably detect thermal abnormalities anywhere from small residential buildings to large installations. Featuring an infrared resolution of 320 x 240 pixels (SuperResolution increases this to 640 x 480), the 883 boasts a thermal sensitivity (NETD) of < 40mK and measuring range between -30 to +650 °C with ±2 °C accuracy. With intuitive operation via touchscreen and joystick, take complete control of the manual focus and interchangeable lenses. Thermal imagery can be adversely affected by the difference between indoor and outdoor temperature, the 883 utilises Testo ScaleAssist to overcome this issue by automatically adjusting the scale to the optimum setting.

Wireless Integration and Advanced Features

Wirelessly integrate readings from the Testo 770-3 clamp meter & 605i Thermohygrometer directly into the Testo 883-1 via Bluetooth. The Testo 883 Thermal Imaging Camera Kit utilises the Testo e-Assist feature present within the 883. This feature allows for automatic recognition of emissivity and determination of reflected temperature. The kit also includes 11 colour palettes as standard. The Testo 883 Thermal Imaging Camera Kit includes an incorporated laser marker and digital camera, with an IP54 rating, up to 5 hours of operation time on a single battery charge, and an internal memory of 2.8GB. It is easy to handle.

The Testo 883-1 Kit offers a range of accessories built to aid professional thermography engineers. As an alternate to the standard 30° x 23° lens, the 12° x 9° telephoto lens which comes as standard is ideal for distant objects and outdoor recording. This kit also includes a spare battery and battery-charging desktop station, optimising charging time and allowing for two batteries charging simultaneously. These features make the 883 perfect for long measuring applications or capturing measurements at greater distances.

Efficient Image Management and Powerful Analysis

For advanced image management, the Testo 883-1 Thermal Imaging Kit incorporates the intelligent Testo SiteRecognition feature. Based on a QR code, barcode, Data Matrix or Testo 2D code, thermal images are automatically assigned to the correct measurement object. Eliminating the need for tedious, manual image management on a PC, this ensures operators do not lose track of item locations. Along with collected results, these measuring locations can then be transferred from existing inventory lists for future processing in a third-party program. Often engineers will have to take a large amount of pictures of very similar measuring objects, Testo SiteRecognition keeps track of which is which and where it is located, saving a lot of time and stress.

Testo IRSoft & Thermography App

IRSoft is a professional piece of PC software compatible with the Testo 883-1, designed to thoroughly analyse thermal images and rapidly compile high-quality customer reports. With a report wizard tool providing step-by-step guidance, create reports using stored or customized templates created in the report designer. Presenting detailed documentation in an easy-to-read format, these templates contain all the relevant information such as location, measuring task, and inspection results. This advanced PC software can:

Highlight the exceeding or undershooting of limit values or pixels within a temperature range
Correct emissivity’s of different materials for image areas or sole pixels
Set an unlimited number of measuring points
Determine hot and cold spots
Enable comments on thermal imagery
Testo IRSoft is included with both the standard Testo 883 thermal imager and Testo 883 Kit, free of charge and does not require a license

Turn your smart device into a second display and remote control for the 883 IR camera through the Testo Thermography App. Generate reports on site and live stream results for customers through their personal devices. The app can insert measuring points and establish a temperature curve, store relevant data, add comments or show a preview of the full report. The Testo Thermography App is free and available for both Android & iOS.

Further advantages for service engineers and facility managers:

Easy to handle – clever management of images and data thanks to Testo SiteRecognition: automatic assignment of thermal images to the correct measurement object using QR code, Data Matrix code, barcode or Testo 2D code, transfer of measuring locations from existing inventory lists, export of work results (in .xls format) enables further processing in third-party programs
Smart: Carry out quick analyses directly on site with the Testo Thermography App and share thermal images with colleagues straight away
Networked: Wireless transmission of readings from the Testo clamp meter directly into the thermal image – this enables you to document the load status directly in the thermal image when checking switching cabinets, for example, and to reliably assess the condition of the system
Intuitive operation via touchscreen and joystick

Further advantages for building energy consultants:

Produce a professional report quickly and easily: The report wizard guides you step by step through the report creation process using stored standard templates. Or you can use the report designer to create customised templates
Clever: The humidity mode visualizes the risk of mould at thermal weak spots directly in the thermal image using traffic light colours (red, yellow, green)
Smart: Thermography and live streaming – with the Testo Thermography App, your customer can conveniently follow the measurement on a smartphone/tablet
Networked: Wireless transmission of readings from the optional humidity probe live in humidity mode – your values are always up to date, e.g. when you change rooms
Flexible: Interchangeable lenses and manual focus for sharper images and more accurate results from different distances
