Page 13: Current Tests
To avoid ice buildup, the 4180 has a cover with a purge inlet. Fluke recommends that the target cover be used at any set-point below the dew point. Depending on the ambient humidity of the environment where the target is used, the dew point can be as high as the ambient temperature of that environment. -
Page 14: Ir Temperature (Ir Camera) Below Dew Point
Use a dry gas for the purge. The gas should have a dew point below -15 °C. Fluke recommends nitrogen or dried air. If the gas contains any water vapor or ice, moisture will form on the target. Use a relatively low flow rate of 2.4 to 4.8 liters/min (5 CFH to 10 CFH) for the purge. - Page 15 True-rms Thermal Multimeter Performance Tests Fluke 4180/4181 Fluke 279 FC 20 in 51 cm iFlex Figure 3.
