Fluke VT02 Thermometer User Manual

Introduction
The VT Series (the Product) are Visual IR Thermometers that combine a
center-point temperature measurement with a blended digital image and heat
map overlay. The thermal image removes the time necessary for component-
by-component measurement associated with a traditional spot thermometer
(radiometer). The Product is ideal for electrical, HVAC, and facility maintenance
applications.
The recommended use model is:
1. Scan a broad area with the blended digital image and heat map overlay to
quickly identify temperature anomalies that need more inspection.
2. Use the wide field-of-view to move closer to the target for a temperature
measurement with more detail.
3. Capture both heat map and visual images with a single trigger pull.
4. Create a report with Fluke SmartView
®
software.
The Product is easy to use. Turn on and within seconds it provides an image
with no training needed. Several features increase the accuracy and usability of
the Product:
Adjustable emissivity and reflected background compensation improves
measurement accuracy on semi-reflective surfaces
Hot and cold spot temperature markers that guide the user to the hottest
and coldest regions in the infrared heat map
Selectable color palettes
Visual/heat map image alignment
The VT04A and VT04 include these additional features:
High/Low Temperature Alarms
Time-Lapse Image Capture
Auto-Monitor Alarm
