Product selection in the Combustion Analysis market sure is “stacked”. All jokes aside, there are lots of options when it comes to which combustion analyzer you should choose. Today I will be discussing the UEi C157 Eagle3x Combustion Analyzer.

The Fluke Ti300 is no longer manufactured.

As promised this post is going to dive into more of the features of Fluke’s new series of cameras, specifically the Fluke Ti300 Thermal Imager.

Let’s touch briefly on the unique features of this camera and then a little info on the cool new LaserSharp focus system that Fluke has come up with.

Testo 310 has been replaced by a newer version Testo 310 II.

The Fluke Ti200 has been discontinued.

Hey all, this is the first in a three part series about Fluke’s new line of thermal imagers. First up is the TI200. Now for this series, the Ti200 is the entry level model but don’t let that label fool you, this is a camera that is highly competitive and vastly featured - especially in its price range.

Key Features:

•  Powerful high-performance features make troubleshooting fast and easy.

Replaced by a new version VT04A.

Fluke’s newest offering in the emerging market for Visual IR Thermometers is the Fluke VT04. I recently posted about the Fluke VT02 and mentioned that it has some limitations. Many of these issues have been addressed in VT04 and have set it at the head of the pack for this new kind of tester.

Do you like free stuff? Who doesn’t? How about free education? You mean that stuff that comes out of books and college kids pay thousands and thousands of dollars a year to get? Sure do!

ITC (the Infrared Training Center), a subsidiary of FLIR, now provides tons of free courses covering all aspects of thermography and thermal imaging cameras for free on their website.

Both models are being phased out.      

What is an IR window? Basically it is a crystal lens that allows broadband infrared waves to pass through it (as well as visible light). The lens does not however allow electrical current to pass through. This enables the thermographer to take IR and visible images of live and energized electrical equipment.

The Flir i3, i5, and i7 Infrared Cameras have been disontinued.

I was involved recently in a meeting with the fine folks at FLIR and something that came up was the subject of IR thermometers or “spot guns”. Now most of you in the field are probably very familiar with these devices but some good talking points arose regarding why, if you want to increase your efficiency and long term money making potential, you should basically throw your spot gun in the garbage and pick up a point and shoot thermal imager like the Flir i3.
