SKF TMTI 300 Thermal Imager


The TMTI 300 is a handheld thermal imaging instrument that aids condition monitoring of electrical and mechanical machinery while it is running. The tool will interest companies in the electrical, HVAC, automotive, food and drink manufacturing industries and in R&D, that have previously found the cost of thermal imaging prohibitive.

The TMTI 300 assists maintenance staff in reducing downtime by evaluating the condition of running machinery. By producing visible images from invisible radiation, the tool allows the user to view a wide range of temperatures for safe inspection of all kinds of mechanical and electrical machines.

Features:

  • Easy-to-use, light weight, one or two handed operation allows the TMTI 300 to be flexible and used for most industrial applications

  • Non-contact measurement technique enables measurements to be made safely on running equipment

  • Large thermal image storage capacity, 1000 images per Mb can be stored on Pocket PC/storage card. Easy for data collection and subsequent reporting

  • Two user defined spot temperature measurement points allow comparison of areas of interest. The temperature difference of the 2 spots is displayed as a separate value

  • Both PC and “Pocket PC” compatible allowing flexibility in viewing results and report writing

  • Software included for ease of data analysis

  • Laser pointer shows the size of a pixel, allowing the area of interest to be pinpointed and for accurate temperature measurement

  • Convenient temperature measurement in K, °C and °F eliminates the necessity to convert temperature reading

  • 3 different selectable color pallets (green/blue, red/blue, grayscale) for ease of viewing

  • Tripod mounting thread for stability and stable monitoring over a period of time

  • Sturdy “ready use” carrying case. The imager, pistol grip and pocket PC can be stored as one assembly ready for use.

  • Ideal complement to other condition monitoring techniques, such as vibration analysis

The TMTI 300 is used to show a difference in temperature between two running bearings. This temperature difference could indicate a potential bearing problem that could lead to a failure and downtime.

The TMTI 300 is used to inspect cable connections. The temperature of one of the cable connections is significantly higher than the others. This could indicate potential problems and should be further investigated.

  A Pocket PC is required in order to view images. This must be obtained separately.
