Chapter 1 Overview
1.1 Device Description
The handheld thermography camera is a device with both optical images
and thermal images. It can do thermography, distance measurement,
video recording, snapshot capturing, alarm, and it can connect to Wi-Fi,
hotspot and Bluetooth. The built-in high-sensitivity IR detector and
high-performance sensor detects the variation of temperature and
measure the real-time temperature. The temperature measurement
range is -20 °C to 400 °C (-4 °F to 752 °F), with the accuracy of ± 2 °C (±
3.6 °F) or 2% when the ambient temperature is 15 °C to 35 °C (59 °F to
95 °F) and the object temperature is above 0 °C (32 °F).
The device is easy to use, and adopts ergonomic design. It is widely used
for building inspection, HVAC, as well as electrical and mechanical
equipment maintenance.
