The units target general electronics applications including use in R&D and laboratories and in design and repair facilities and departments.

Two new RS Pro thermal imaging cameras ( https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/test-measurement/temperature-measurement/thermal-imaging-cameras/?searchTerm=np-rs-pro-thermal-0218_uk&searchType=Offers&h=s&sra=oss&redirect-relevancy-data=77633D4E4F4E4526 ) deliver user-friendly controls with fast, accurate and reliable measurement, while also being robust enough to withstand daily use in a range of tough environments. The units have been designed for use by a wide range of professionals including building and facilities engineers and maintenance technicians within processing or utilities industries.

Both devices offer a 2.8-in display, approximately four hours of battery life and storage capability via a MicroSD card. The RS700 offers an operating temperature range of -20 to +150°C with an infrared resolution of 80 x 80 pixels, in addition to offering Wi-Fi connectivity; whereas the RS730 offers a temperature range of 0 to +350°C with an IR resolution of 120 x 160 pixels.

The MeterScope is a True-RMS digital multimeter with oscilloscope functions and 3.5-in colour TFT display. Featuring a 20 MHz bandwidth and 50 MS/s real-time sample rate, the MeterScope has built-in data logging and trend capturing capability, which can be transferred via Bluetooth for deeper analysis.
