Introduction The FLIR TG267, TG297, and TG165–X are Diagnostic Thermal Cameras which combine non-contact temperature measurement and thermal imaging into one troubleshooting tool to help you quickly find the source of heat-re- lated problems and spot potential faults. The FLIR TG267 adds Type-K thermocouple contact temperature measurements.
