PCE-TC 29 IR HVAC Meter
For visual inspection and non-contact infrared (IR) temperature measurement / Integrated color camera offers picture-in-picture overlay of visual and IR image / Adjustable emissivity / Included MicroSD card memory
PCE-TC 29 is an IR HVAC meter or infrared imaging camera used for visual inspection and non-contact IR temperature measurement. Ideal for industrial use in electrical, mechanical, and building installations (such as in the auditing of machines, engines, or heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems), this affordable infrared imager captures and saves 60 x 60 pixel IR resolution images to the included MicroSD memory card.
Locate hot and cold spots with ease by using the infrared thermal imager's picture-in-picture overlay capability. The imager's built-in color camera captures the real-life visual, while the integrated thermography camera acquires the IR temperature signature. The IR temperature signature is superimposed in increments of 25% over the real-life color camera visual, so both images are viewed simultaneously.

The IR HVAC Meter was designed for taking non-contact temperature measurements. To get accurate readings, the emissivity of the thermometer can be adjusted, depending on the operation purpose. Besides taking infrared images, the thermometer can also take normal pictures, as well as a mixture of both, due to the built-in digital camera.
