Review:
Demonstration Thermography Report to highlight the capabilities of the Testo Thermal Imaging cameras and
the Testo IR software.
This is an example report for Demonstration purposes only. The report format is using the "Standard" report
template from the selection of Report Templates available in the software.
The Report is compiled from various Thermal images taken with Testo Thermal Imaging Cameras to
demonstarte the capabilities of a Thermal Imaging Camera to highlight Thermal anomalies in Photovoltaic
Panels indicating potential faults.and this report is compiled to indicate the capability of the camera and the
software for this type of Application.

8. Demonstration Thermography report
Please note that any temperatures indicated on the images are "Apparent Temperatures" and may not be
truely representative. An overall emissivity value has been used in the images for these demonstartion
purposes. For accurate temperature measurement, the relevant emissivity value to the specific material to be
measured, would have to be established.
It should be noted that Testo do not provide a Thermography Consultancy Service, the images are purely for
Equipment Demonstration purposes to highlight the capabilities of the Testo range of Thermal Imaging
cameras and the Testo IR software.
It is not the purpose of the images/report to specifically identify/highlight any faults or Thermal Anomalies, or to
provide comment/observation relating to any anomalies.
Some of the features of the camera and software have also been applied to the Thermal images.
Spot Temperature markers have been added to the thermal images to indicate temperatures.
Auto Hot / Cold Spot Indicator has been applied, which automatically highlights the Hottest or Coldest point
in the defined area.
Temperature Profile Line Graph shows the temperature variation in graph form across the subject.
Palettes a variety of palettes have been used for the thermal images. Eight palettes are available on the
camera and in the software.
The images are automatically Time and Date Stamped to verify the time and date when the images were
taken.
The report also details the Emissivity value relating to the image taken.
