HTC VT-100 Thermal Imaging Thermometer – Precision Temperature Profiling with Visual Insights
The HTC VT-100 represents the next level in infrared thermometers, merging thermal imaging with user-friendly features to deliver fast, intuitive, and accurate temperature monitoring. Designed for technicians, maintenance professionals, food service operators, and safety inspectors, it transforms raw thermal data into actionable, color-rich thermal maps, making temperature anomalies instantly obvious.
Dynamic Thermal Imaging with Visual Clarity
At its core, the VT-100 features a 2.5” full-color TFT LCD display to deliver stunning visuals of thermal heat signatures. Crafted for real-world usage, it combines thermal data (60×60 IR resolution) with clear visible-light images (300,000 pixels), enabling precise visual and thermal overlays. The intuitive interface enlivens thermal data, showing hot spots and cold spots through selectable color palettes.
Intelligent Functionality for Immediate Insight
-
Hot & Cold Spot Tracking: Automatically finds and marks the highest and lowest temperatures in the field of view, guiding inspection focus.
-
Palette Selection: Choose from Ironbow, Rainbow, High-Contrast Rainbow, and two grayscale modes (white-hot, black-hot), to best visualize thermal variations.
-
Visual-Infrared Blending: Effortlessly mix thermal and visible imaging in increments (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) to best understand object context.
-
IR & Visible Sync: Ensures visual clarity aligns with thermal scan for accurate interpretation.
Impressive Thermal Performance
-
Temperature Range: –20 °C to 300 °C (–4 °F to 572 °F)—ideal for HVAC, food, or industrial uses.
-
Thermal Sensitivity: Capable of detecting changes as subtle as 0.15 °C (0.27 °F) to identify hidden problems early.
-
Accuracy: ±2% of the reading ±2 °C (3.6 °F), ensuring dependable measurement results.
