IR thermometer, including advanced extra bright
coaxial three-dot laser sighting system; 100-point

digital camera for photographic documentation.
Fluke 576 photo documentation
Simultaneously measure temperature and digitally
photograph the target and its surroundings. A wealth of
data is instantly captured in a digital photo: time
and date stamp, temperature data and location
name. Photos and data are easily downloaded
into the accompanying PC software. The addition
of the photos helps to enhance reports, to more
explicitly communicate problem areas with repair
personnel, and to ensure consistency when taking
repeated measurements over time when looking
for equipment condition trends.
