IR281 is a thermal imaging camera that integrates surface tempera-
ture measurement and real-time thermal image. With this product,
the potential problems can be identied on the color display screen
which is helpful for users to locate problems, take readings and solve
the issue.
The product has a visual camera integrated to increase the dierenti-
ation degree. The thermal and full vision images and videos can be
stored in the internal memory card or an additional detachable SD
card. The image or video can be stored in PC to generate a report and
print.
The following are the major features of IR281:
1. High accuracy: The adjustable radiation coecient increases
the measurement accuracy of reective
surfaces.
2. Time-saving: The traditional infrared thermometer needs
to measure every component one by one,
this is not necessary for the IR281.
3. Easy to use: Turn on the device and start measuring
temperature right away.
4. Image & Video: The IR281 has the capabilities to take both
images and videos, making it easier for users
to analyze the situation.
5. Adjustable: 9 types of color palettes and wide range of
emissivity values provided.

1. Overview
The product can be utilized in many elds, for instance:
1. Detect spills and leaks of chemicals which have dierent
thermal signatures to the surroundings.
2. Fire fighting: Vision can be obscured by smoke and debris in the
event of a re, thermal imaging can see through this and locate
victims or re spots.
3. Locate the source of abnormal leaking of heat of a house or a
machine, nd out the problem area and x it.
4. Enable drug-enforcement units to locate cannabis plants by
detecting abnormal amount of heat spot in buildings.
5. Moisture detection: Areas with lower temperatures to its
uniform surroundings can be a source of moisture staining or
damage.
6. Measure body temperatures: Point the thermal imaging camera
at a person to nd their surface body temperature.
7. Night vision: Measuring the electromagnetic energies given o
when objects emit heat, the IR281 translates those energies into
visible light for users to see them in the dark.
8. Building inspection: Check that heat is retained uniformly in a
building.
IR281 is the ideal selection for electrician, maintenance personnel,
technicians and even the emergency personnel.
