New diag thermal imager from Snap-on

The new Diagnostic Thermal Imager+ from Snap-on uses infrared technology to reveal heat caused by friction, electrical resistance, pressure changes and more to help professional technicians track down vehicle faults and find the fix faster.

“The Diagnostic Thermal Imager+ delivers detailed images composed of 4,800 distinct temperature zones, making extreme temperatures up to 840 degrees Fahrenheit visible with absolute precision anywhere under the hood or around the car,” said Helen Cox, marketing and client services director at Snap-on Diagnostics. “It comes loaded with a database full of automotive applications, guided tests and reference images to help technicians interpret results, putting a more accurate diagnosis and productivity in clear view, on every job.”

Key features include: Point at any area of the vehicle for detailed images of the object’s heat signature; customized views on screen to assist in diagnosis and pinpointing location; Image blending, split screen view, picture-in-picture view and recording a 20-second video; pull the trigger to capture images, then use saved images to create convincing repair orders; save, store and print; detects problems all around the vehicle: brakes, heated seats, misfires, HVAC, worn bearings, belts, emission controls and more; reference images show normal and failed components so technicians know what to look for

When connected to Wi-Fi, every image captured with the tool is automatically uploaded to the Snap-on Cloud. Technicians can then access the images from their phones or computers.
