DatasheetThe testo 883-2 thermal imaging camera is designed specifically for building energy consultants, offering high-resolution imaging, advanced analysis features, and professional reporting capabilities. Equipped with a 42° wide-angle lens, it allows for detailed thermal inspections even in tight spaces, while manual focus and optional telephoto lenses provide maximum flexibility for different applications.
Designed for versatility, the 42° wide-angle lens provides a broader field of view, making it perfect for analysing large surfaces and detecting energy losses in tight spaces. For long-distance inspections, the camera supports interchangeable telephoto lenses (sold separately). Manual focus allows for sharp thermal images from a distance of just 10 cm, ensuring clear and detailed results.
The testo IRSoft software enables comprehensive image analysis, while the testo thermography app allows for real-time reporting, live streaming, and remote control via smartphone or tablet. Additionally, the humidity mode visualises the risk of mould formation in weak spots using an intuitive traffic light system (red = high risk, yellow = caution, green = safe).
With wireless Bluetooth integration, the testo 883-2 can connect to testo humidity probes and clamp meters, allowing users to combine real-time measurements directly within thermal images. Whether you’re performing energy audits, facility inspections, or HVAC maintenance, this thermal imaging camera provides unmatched accuracy, efficiency, and ease of use.
