Fluke TiX580 Infrared Camera, 640 x 480, 1000 C

Description

TiX580 infrared camera with 5.7 in articulating display and MultiSharp focus

The Fluke TiX580 is the top model of the Fluke PRO thermal imaging group. It combines a 640 x 480 detector, a 5.7 in touchscreen mounted on a 240 degree rotating lens module, a 1,000 °C temperature range and a full set of recording and analysis functions. It is aimed at reliability engineers who inspect awkward targets, such as overhead busbars or equipment behind guards, and want to review and annotate images on the camera. Seven Star LLC supplies the TiX580 in Oman and the GCC as an independent supplier in Muscat, not affiliated with the manufacturer.

The ordering list shows the TiX580 as FLK-TiX580 in two frame-rate versions, 60 Hz and 9 Hz. The decoded name is below.

How the TiX580 captures sharp images of near and far targets

Two focus systems work together. LaserSharp Auto Focus uses a built-in laser distance meter to measure the range to the aimed target and set the lens. MultiSharp Focus goes further: the camera records a stack of images focused near and far and processes them so the finished picture is sharp throughout the field of view. This is useful in a motor control room where a busbar one metre away and a cable gland five metres away must both be legible. MultiSharp is listed for the TiX580 and Ti480 PRO but not for the Ti401 PRO or TiX501.

SuperResolution captures and combines four times the data in software to create a 1280 x 960 image. This is a post-processing function rather than a different detector, so quote it as an image-quality feature only.

TiX580 compared with the other 640 x 480 cameras

The TiX580 and the Ti480 PRO share the 1,000 °C range, 50 mK sensitivity, radiometric video, auto capture and line temperature graph. What separates them is the form: the Ti480 PRO is a pistol grip with a 3.5 in display, while the TiX580 has the 5.7 in screen and rotating lens. The TiX501 has the same body but a 650 °C range, 75 mK sensitivity and a 2x zoom only.

Model Form Max range NETD Video
Ti401 PRO Pistol grip, 3.5 in 650 °C 75 mK No video
Ti480 PRO Pistol grip, 3.5 in 1,000 °C 50 mK Radiometric video
TiX501 Articulating, 5.7 in 650 °C 75 mK Standard video
TiX580 Articulating, 5.7 in 1,000 °C 50 mK Radiometric video

Selecting the TiX580

  • Choose the TiX580 when you must reach targets above 650 °C or need radiometric video for process tuning.
  • Prefer the articulating lens when inspecting overhead or recessed equipment from a comfortable posture.
  • Note the 1 m drop specification, lower than the 2 m figure of the pistol-grip PRO models.
  • Specify the frame rate, 60 Hz or 9 Hz, at ordering.
  • Add lenses as required: 2x telephoto, 4x telephoto, wide-angle or 25 micron macro Smart Lenses.

Installation, commissioning and care of the TiX580

There is no installation. Charge the two smart batteries, insert the micro SD card and set emissivity, reflected temperature and units. Test the laser distance reading against a tape-measured target to confirm that focus tracks correctly. Radiometric video files and is3 images need the manufacturer’s desktop software for full analysis, while jpeg files can be opened without it. Keep the lens clean, avoid pointing it at the sun or at very hot sources at close range, and store it in the airtight case. A two-year calibration interval is recommended under normal use.

Typical applications of the TiX580 in Oman and the GCC

Reliability teams in oil and gas, petrochemical and power generation use the TiX580 for steam traps and process piping, furnace casings, motor bearings and electrical gear. Desalination plants use it on pump drives and electrical rooms. Radiometric video helps observe heating cycles and transient events, and auto capture can record a temperature crossing without an operator holding the camera. In the Gulf climate, record the ambient temperature and sun load when comparing outdoor readings, because solar heating can mask or mimic a fault.

About brand

Fluke is the American maker of handheld electronic test tools: digital multimeters, clamp meters, insulation testers, process calibrators, thermometers, vibration meters and power quality analysers. John Fluke founded the John Fluke Engineering Company in Springdale, Connecticut, in June 1948 and moved it to Seattle in 1952. Fluke is headquartered in Everett, Washington, was acquired by Danaher in 1998 and has been part of Fortive since Fortive's spin-off from Danaher in 2016.

Seven Star LLC lists Fluke process calibrators, electrical test tools and bench calibrators, and sources them for maintenance teams and calibration laboratories in Oman.

Several of the bench models belong to earlier generations. When a model is no longer produced, we check the manufacturer's documentation and propose the successor it names.

Where Fluke instruments are used

Fluke process calibrators are used for loop checks, transmitter calibration and valve tests in oil and gas, power and water plants. Clamp meters and insulation testers serve electrical maintenance on motors, switchgear and cables. The bench calibrators and reference multimeters are the working standards of electrical calibration laboratories in the GCC, where they calibrate multimeters, clamp meters, process tools and power analyzers.

Ordering Fluke instruments: what we need

Send the exact model with its suffix, since versions differ. A Fluke 721, for example, is defined by its two pressure ranges, and a 729 by its maximum pressure. For bench calibrators, list the options you need, such as oscilloscope calibration or power quality options, the line voltage, and the type of calibration certificate you require from the manufacturer. For Fluke multimeters and clamp meters, add the kit contents wanted, such as probes, leads or cases.
