1Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Wahl Instruments “a30” or “z30” hand-held
infrared thermal imager.
Model Identification
“a” prefix imagers operate with a 9 Hz sample rate
“z” prefix imagers operate at a 30 Hz sample rate.
“30” Series (Detectors) are entry level reduced feature imaging cameras
“50” Series (Inspectors) are full-featured imaging cameras
Features
30 Series Detectors include the following features:
User selectable Auto or manual level and span control
°C, ° or K measurement scale
4 user selectable color palettes
11 user selectable languages
Hot temperature spot measurement
Cold temperature spot measurement
2 User selectable spot measurements
High temperature Alarm setting
T Reflect - Reflected temperature compensation
2X digital zoom
reeze screen for viewing current image
Video Output – NTSC or PAL
50 Series Inspectors include all the above 30 Series features plus:

Upgrades and Options
30 Series Detectors are field upgradeable to 50 Series Inspectors.
30 and 50 Series models are field upgradeable for High Temperature
measurements.
30 and 50 Series models are factory upgradeable for Wide Angle or Telephoto
Lenses.
All imagers use an uncooled focal plane infrared detector, and display the
thermal image as a multi-color image with user selectable color palette,
sensitivity and span. On Inspectors the image may be stored in the SD card
and subsequently transferred to a PC for analysis and report generation as
desired.
Applications:
Preventive maintenance
Power industry: Power line and power facility thermal state
checking; problem and defect diagnosis.
Electrical system: Identify potential circuit overloads.
Mechanical system: Reduce downtime and avoid catastrophic failure.
Construction science
Roof: Quick identification of water penetration problems.
Structure: Commercial and residential energy audits.
Moisture detection: Determine root cause of moisture and mildew.
Verification: Verify if corrective actions are sufficient.
Ot ers:
Iron and steel industry: Inspect steel refining and rolling processes;
diagnose hot-blast stove defects; detect the embryo temperature of armor
plate, etc.
irefighting: orest fire prevention and detection of latent ignition
source. Preventive detection on specific materials of auto-ignition. Detection
of potential spark ignition sources.
