By following standards, your work will immediately gain credibility. Section 14 of ASTM C-1153, Standard Practice for Location of [...] Last week I talked about how to move yourself and your imager into the best position to get good thermal data. Another big part of being successful is understanding and following professional thermography standards. Like a good time-tested recipe, these help us get high quality, consistent results. As I’ve said before, I’ve made plenty of mistakes [...] The image palettes we have available to us are remarkable. They’ve come so far since I first got into this business in 1983.

In this short video, we take a step back and explain what thermal imaging actually is. We cover the basic principles of how the camera works and a few of the [...] Don’t get stuck in 2D. Watch this informative video on how 3D reporting in Fluke SmartView software can give you a view from EVERY angle. When viewing traditional 2D images sometimes situations can be misdiagnosed. See what a difference 3D reporting makes. To see a video demonstration of Fluke SmartView, click HERE. And remember, Fluke SmartView [...] Consulting-Specifying Engineer provides the engineering community with premium research and information, and every year the have consumers vote on the test tool products of the year. This year it was the Fluke TiS thermal imaging scanner that reigned supreme, not only winning its category, but also claiming top prize among all products as 2011 MVP.
