Unit Thermal Cameras

A thermal camera is a non-contact measuring device that detects the infrared radiation emitted by objects and shows the surface temperature distribution as a thermal image. It is used to detect loose connections and overloaded conductors in electrical enclosures, motor and bearing overheating, and heat loss in buildings. This category lists Unit-branded professional and pocket-type thermal cameras, modules that attach to Android and iPhone phones, and monocular thermal imagers for observation, with infrared resolutions such as 120×90, 256×192 and 320×240. Choose the infrared resolution and field of view according to the size of the target and the measuring distance, the temperature measuring range according to the temperature to be measured, the thermal sensitivity (NETD) according to the temperature difference to be distinguished, and the frame rate and focus type according to how you will use it. The smaller the NETD value, the smaller the temperature difference the camera can distinguish; for an accurate reading, the surface emissivity is set on the device. An infrared thermometer that gives the temperature of a single point does not replace a thermal camera that displays the temperature distribution.

How to choose Thermal Cameras

A thermal camera is a non-contact measuring device that detects the infrared radiation emitted by objects and shows the surface temperature distribution as a thermal image. It is used to detect loose connections and overloaded conductors in electrical enclosures, motor and bearing overheating, and heat loss in buildings.

  • Identify the measurement or fastening task and the required insulation safety rating.
  • Select jaw profile, cross-section range and accessories for the conductor or fastener standard.
  • Check CAT voltage category and replacement tip or die availability for field conditions.
