Fluke - Five reasons to have a multimeter with an integrated thermal camera

If you are an electrician or technician responsible for the maintenance, efficiency, and profitability of industrial systems and processes, you know that the sooner you identify a problem, the sooner you can correct it. A digital multimeter (DMM) is necessary for accurate troubleshooting and diagnosis of electrical and electronic problems, but sometimes identifying a problem takes longer than you would like.

What if you could reduce the problem in a few seconds without touching the equipment? This is what the new Fluke 279 FC multimeter allows. It is a professional digital multimeter that integrates an 80 x 60 resolution thermal camera (also known as an infrared camera) as well as iFlex® and Fluke Connect® features. Use the thermal camera to locate access points, then test voltage, current, and temperature with the DMM to diagnose the problem. Once repairs are completed, you can verify them using the thermal camera.
