The Raytek PhotoTemp™ MX6 portable infrared thermometer is a powerful and affordable way to simultaneously take temperature measurements and document them with digital photographs.
Asplundh Tree Service in Memphis, Tennessee is using the Raytek MX6 infrared thermometer with a built-in digital camera to expand its services to cover electric utilities.
One of their first customers was a local electric utility that hired Asplundh to inspect pad mount and pole mount power transformers. Their service includes checking the surface temperature of the transformer, documenting the data, and producing a report with a photo of the trouble spot included. The MX6 is the perfect support tool for this application and Asplundh’s fleet of bucket trucks.
The integration of temperature data with digital photographs elevates the process of inspections by creating a real-time image with an object’s temperature and its surroundings. It allows its users such as Asplundh Tree Service to download all the data, including the photos stored in the PhotoTemp MX6 thermometer, using the DataTemp® MX software and USB cable included with the MX6 thermometer,
