All the important information about the testo 883-1 thermal imager
- Superior Image Quality: An IR resolution of 320 x 240 pixels (enhanced with SuperResolution to 640 x 480 pixels), manual focus, and a very good NETD of 40 mK ensure this industrial infrared camera delivers the best image quality—allowing you to reliably detect thermal abnormalities in installations and buildings.
- testo SiteRecognition: This testo thermal imager enables intelligent image management. Thermal images are automatically assigned to the correct measurement object based on the QR code at the measuring location, eliminating tedious manual assignment on the PC.
- testo IRSoft: Analyze thermal images comprehensively with the intuitive, professional PC software and create impressive reports within a short period of time.
- testo ScaleAssist: Automatic contrast adjustment for objectively comparable thermal images and easier detection of weak spots.
- testo Thermography App: With the app, your smartphone or tablet becomes a second display and a remote control for your testo 883-1. You can quickly create, send, or save reports on-site.
- Interchangeable Lenses: Features an interchangeable telephoto lens option for distant objects and outdoor recording, making it a versatile industrial infrared camera.
- Precise Control: Manual focus for sharp thermal images from a distance of 10 cm, with easy operation via touchscreen and joystick.
- Wireless Integration: Seamless wireless transmission of readings from a clamp meter or humidity probe directly into the thermal image via Bluetooth®

Frequently Asked Questions
The testo 883-1 is a purpose-built industrial infrared camera. With its 320 x 240 resolution and manual focus, it allows maintenance teams to identify overheating components in electrical cabinets or mechanical wear in motors from a safe distance with absolute clarity.
When using the testo 883-1 thermal imager at sites with many similar measurement objects (like electrical sub-panels), SiteRecognition uses QR codes to automatically archive images. This prevents the common problem of mixing up thermal photos during the reporting phase.
Yes. As a high-sensitivity testo thermal imager, it can detect even minor temperature differences (40 mK). This is essential for identifying thermal bridges, insulation gaps, and moisture damage in building envelopes.
Absolutely. While this kit includes the standard 30°*23° lens, the testo 883-1 supports an interchangeable telephoto lens, which is perfect for inspecting high-voltage lines or large industrial facades from a distance.
The testo 883-1 features Bluetooth connectivity. You can link it directly to the testo 770-3 clamp meter; the electrical readings are then transmitted in real-time and displayed directly on the thermal image for comprehensive fault documentation.
