Fluke RSE600: A Powerful Tool for Precision Infrared Inspections

When conducting infrared inspections, obtaining high-quality images is crucial for accurate analysis, professional presentation, and clear reporting. A sharply focused image reveals the contrast between areas of differing thermal energy on the surface under inspection. This enables each detector element (or pixel) to accurately measure the intensity of the thermal energy concentrated on it. Poor focus, however, disperses incoming energy, leading to inaccurate readings, costly downtime, and potential safety risks.

 

Why Choose the Fluke RSE600?

Thermal imagers utilize 100% diamond-turned germanium lenses with specialized coatings to capture high-resolution images. The Fluke RSE600 seamlessly integrates infrared data, photos, and videos into a single fixed-mount camera. With a high resolution of 640 x 480 and a spatial resolution of 0.93 mRad, it’s ideal for R&D in fields like science and engineering. The camera includes SmartView® desktop software and a carrying bag, enabling continuous detection of thermal hotspots and aiding in precise temperature measurements with improved thermal sensitivity.

 

Key Features

  • Interoperable with MATLAB® and LabVIEW®: Allows integration of infrared data, photos, and videos for advanced research analysis.
  • High Resolution (640 x 480): Captures detailed thermal images.
  • Optional Smart Lenses: Choose from 2x and 4x telephoto, wide-angle, and macro lenses to capture specific details.
  • SmartView® Desktop Software: Edit photos, create customized reports, and export in various formats.
  • MultiSharp™ Focus: Maintains focus across the field of view to minimize errors.

 

Advanced Focus Technologies

 

LaserSharp™ Auto Focus

 

With LaserSharp™ Auto Focus, users benefit from a built-in laser distance meter that combines speed and accuracy. The laser pinpoints the target, ensuring that the camera automatically focuses to capture it clearly.

  • Capture clear, high-quality images with just one click.
  • Overcome obstacles such as chain-link fences when capturing infrared images.
  • Eliminate inaccurate temperature readings with precise target selection.
  • Simplify repeat inspections: the built-in laser distance meter ensures consistent positioning for repeated checks.

 

 

MultiSharp™ Focus

 

The MultiSharp™ Focus feature merges multiple images taken at different focus points into one clear, fully focused image, allowing users to capture detailed images of multiple targets with a single point-and-shoot action.

  • Reduce retakes of images of targets within the camera’s field of view.
  • Increase productivity with fewer required photos.
  • Capture sharp images in bright sunlight for outdoor inspections.

 

 

Enhanced Image Capture and Analysis

 

IR PhotoNotes™

 

The IR PhotoNotes™ feature allows users to attach crucial information about equipment, such as location details, through voice or text notes. Each note is automatically linked to the image, eliminating the need for separate documentation.

 

IR Fusion™ Technology

 

IR Fusion™ combines visible and infrared images to enhance image clarity and help users pinpoint specific areas with more detail.

  • Picture-in-picture mode displays infrared in the center while showing visible light in the surrounding area for precise localization.
  • AutoBlend™ mode allows users to adjust infrared and visible light intensity for better detail.
  • User-defined temperature ranges and IR color alerts help to identify and isolate issues.
