Bosch Thermal Imagers

Objects emit infrared energy, which creates a heat signature. The hotter an object is, the more thermal energy it gives off. A thermal imager detects and measures this energy. It then converts this data into an image which shows the apparent surface temperature of the object or space you’re measuring.

Thermal imaging cameras work in a wide variety of environments. They can help discover problems early in electrical wiring and maintenance situations. They can also help detect heat loss in other applications such as window installation.

Commonly, they see use in applications such as:

• Electrical maintenance
• Plumbing
• Mechanical and construction
• Animal and pest management
• And more!

To use the Bosch thermal imager, just squeeze the trigger to shoot the image and use a click wheel for the functions.

Bosch thermal camera options include the GTC400C 12V Max connected thermal camera. This thermal camera uses a large, illuminated color display which features a 160x120 thermal resolution, setting the standard in thermal resolution. An integrated camera records actual images with thermal graphic images for side-by-side comparison, picture-in-picture, and more. Additionally, the precision imaging uses more than 19,000 measurement points showing hot and cold spots, center temperature, and adjustable temperature scale.

More benefits include:

• Stores up to 500 images, both thermal graphic and visual
• Bluetooth and Wi-Fi hotspot connectivity to transfer documentation to a smart phone or tablet
• Features an IP53 rating and can withstand difficult jobsite conditions
• 12V Max lithium-ion battery features a long runtime for complex jobs
• Detects temperature anomalies in seconds by squeezing the trigger and freezing the image

This camera helps disclose problems in real time. You can use it for insulation, heater and radiator, and window installation.
