Testo 890 Thermal Imager – Pro Kit with Three Lenses

Overview

The testo 890 handles both industrial thermography and building diagnostics with ease—think switchboards, high-temp assets, circuit boards, solar arrays, full façades, and energy audits. It delivers 640 × 480 px IR images (up to 1280 × 960 px via SuperResolution) with < 40 mK thermal sensitivity, so tiny temperature differences stand out.

This kit includes three lenses (standard, 25°, telephoto) so you’re covered for close-ups, mid-range, and distant targets.

Key Features

• High detail: 640 × 480 detector; SuperResolution to 1280 × 960.
• High sensitivity: < 40 mK @ 30 °C for subtle deltas.
• Pro tools: JPEG save, optional sequence capture, SiteRecognition, panorama assistant.
• Ergonomics: camcorder design, wrist strap, rotatable fold-out display, one-hand use.
• Heat-ready: optional high-temperature range up to 1200 °C.
• Mould risk mode: dewpoint overlay (traffic-light); supports optional radio humidity probe.
• Integrated visual camera: with power LEDs for paired documentation.
• Auto-focus & close focus: minimum focus down to 10 cm.

Features & Capabilities

• 307,200 temperature points per frame (640 × 480); SuperResolution sharpens pixels and IFOV.
• Process analysis package (optional): fully radiometric video + on-instrument sequence capture.
• Panorama assistant: capture and auto-stitch wide scenes (e.g., whole façades) on the spot.
• SiteRecognition: auto finds, assigns, and archives recurring locations.
• FeverDetection (optional): screening assistant for elevated body temperature.

Applications

Preventive Maintenance

• Find hot spots under load; reduce downtime and fire risk.
• Electrical: switchboards, PV arrays, LV/MV/HV equipment.
• Mechanical: motors, bearings, shafts, rotating machinery.

Building & Energy

• Reveal leaks, insulation gaps, and thermal bridges; verify air-tightness.
• Mould-risk visualisation via humidity/temperature inputs.
• Energy audits: document losses; support blower-door testing.
• Panorama mode: stitch large façades into one diagnostic image.

HVAC & Plumbing

• Assess temperature distribution; balance systems faster.
• Trace underfloor loops; compare flow/return temps; identify silting.
• Pinpoint pipe leaks without destructive opening.

Roofs & Envelopes

• Detect trapped moisture/insulation damage (especially in flat roofs).

Quality, R&D, and Process

• Monitor production and component heat profiles; inspect fill levels in closed tanks.
• Board-level hotspot analysis; optional video/sequence for transient studies.

High-Temperature & Utilities

• Image furnaces, kilns, smelters at a safe distance (option to 1200 °C; see lens note).
• Utilities: scan transformers/overhead lines safely; PV module defect checks.

Included Lenses (3)

• 42° × 32° standard: wide FOV for close inspections and façades.
• 25° × 19°: versatile mid-range lens; ideal for maintenance routes.
• 15° × 11° telephoto: crisp detail at medium to longer distances.

Note: The optional high-temperature range is not available with the telephoto lens.
