mK) and an ergonomic design, is the ideal choice for professional thermographs. The thermal camera
PCE-TC 9 convinces with an easy handling, high performance and acceptable acquisition costs. The
integrated 3.0 megapixel camera simplifies documentation and reporting. The IR- and real-images are
taken from a safe distance and can then be stored on the SD card in JPEG format. The included 2 GB
memory card is capable for storing 5000 images taken by the thermal camera PCE-TC 9. Then, these
images can be analyzed on a PC by means of the software package which is also included. The 3.5-inch
color LCD of the thermal camera can be rotated by 270 °. The LCD of the thermal camera shows the
min., max., and average temperature, 3 selectable measuring ranges (each with min., max. and average
