Infrared thermometer switches distances
Infrared thermometer has the ability to 'switch' between close focus and far distance optics and has a broad measuring range - from -35 deg C to +950 deg C.
The Testo 845 Infrared Thermometer offers a unique innovation in the world of infrared temperature measurement - the ability to 'switch' between close focus and far distance optics By moving a simple slide switch the Testo 845 can be used to measure: * Far distances - the Testo 845 is equipped with 75:1 optics for measurements at distance

Performing visual inspection of inaccessible areas
Ideal visual inspection tool for service and maintenance engineers, builders and plumbers, a fibre optic system allows inaccessible locations to be viewed.
The thermometer marks the object to be measured with a laser cross to ensure that the actual position and diameter of the measurement point are identifiable during the measurement.
* Close focus - the Testo 845 features a two point laser to mark the measurement point exactly.
At very close range the instrument can take accurate measurements of very small objects - at a distance of 70mm the Testo 845 measures a spot of just 1mm diameter.
In addition the Testo 845 offers a host of useful features: * Broad measuring range - from -35 to +950 deg C.
* Reference class accuracy, up to +/-0.75 deg C.
* Online measurement and Documentation via USB and Testo software.
* Ultra-fast measurement rate, scanning 100ms.
* Onsite printing to an optional infrared printer.
* Input for thermocouple probes for contact temperature measurements.
* The degree of emission is freely adjustable from 0.1 to 1.0.
* Simple operation and a clear backlit display showing measured temperature, minimum / maximum values (freely selectable) and the degree of emission.
By being able to take both close focus and far distance temperature measurements, the Testo 845 can be used to perform measuring tasks that would have previously taken two instruments.
With its groundbreaking technology the Testo 845 offers 'two instruments in one', therefore offering significant costs savings.
