The 75th anniversary offer also includes innovative new products which are set to carry Fluke’s longstanding reputation for research and development into the next 75 years with products such as the FEV300 EV Charging Station Test Adapter Kit. The Fluke FEV300designed for testing the function and safety of electric vehicle charging stations, without the need for an electric vehicle. It allows testing to be carried out quickly and easily and can also be combined with Fluke’s other test instruments such as the 1664 FC installation tester.

Other discounted products include Multifunction Installation Testers, Multifunction Installation Testers with TruTest kits, 116 and 117 Digital Multimeters, the 325-clamp meter, the 62 MAX infrared laser thermometer and the T150 and T6-600 electrical testers. Says Nigel Hedges: “Over 75 years, technicians and engineers in the electrical industry have come to rely on the solid build quality, accuracy and reliability of Fluke test solutions. Many customers remain loyal to Fluke because our products provide the sophisticated features they need, combined with the usability that makes testing tasks quicker and easier to perform.

“With squeezed budgets and a growing shortage of skilled labour, companies are having to choose their measurement solutions carefully – many have concluded that Fluke instruments provide the value for money, effectiveness and ease of use they are looking for, and we look forward to providing our customers with high quality tools for many more years to come.”

Although Fluke may be celebrating 75 years of history and heritage, they are by no means stepping back the innovation that has seen them achieve so much success to date. Exciting new product areas such as solar energy, electric vehicle charging solutions and acoustic imaging for leak detection all continue to drive Fluke forwards their centenary celebrations.

A golden opportunity!

Installation engineers in the datacomms industry will now be able to take advantage of a special limited offer .

Called ‘Bundle and save. Discover the Gold difference’, Fluke's discount and re-calibration programme runs from 1 September to 15 December 2023. In celebration of the modular Versiv’s 10th anniversary, customers will be able to save up to £4000/€4,400, without having to negotiate trade-in prices, on devices that are essential to the cable certification process.

Fluke Networks boasts overwhelming market dominance in copper testing technology and is recognised as a major player in fibre testing, with its user-friendly and intuitive instrumentation well-established within the sector. The ‘bundle and save’ discounts with Gold support relate to seven of the company’s best-selling models – the DSX-602-PRO, DSX2-5000 and DSX2-8000 for copper cables, the CFP2-100-Q and OFP2-100-Q for fibre and the combined kits DSX2-5000QI and DSX2-8000QI.

Whether working in small datacomms network installation businesses, in offices and university campuses or in organisations with hundreds of staff operating large data centres, engineers will now find it easier than ever to check and certify that network cables are running as required according to industry standards, including being capable of carrying the correct amount of data at the speed stated. Standards include ISO/IEC Class C and D, E, EA, F, FA and I/II certification per ISO/IEC.

Continually being updated and enhanced, the future-ready Versiv range is designed to support copper certification, fibre optic loss and OTDR (optical time domain reflectometer) testing as well as fibre end-face inspection. Test results are analysed and reports generated via Fluke Networks’ integrated LinkWare Live management software which to date has helped users upload more than 100 million test results.

Professional engineers using Versiv equipment will want to prove to customers that their network works correctly and there are no performance shortfalls. To achieve maximum customer confidence, all devices will need to have been regularly calibrated.

Recognising that such advanced equipment represents a major investment, Fluke Networks understands that engineers will be eager to minimise downtime in its use and achieve the best return on their investment. That’s why the Gold service support package not only offers an annual calibration service but also provides users with replacement tools on free loan while theirs are being worked on.

As well as eliminating ad hoc service and support charges for testers themselves, the support package covers maintenance and repair of costly current link adapters where necessary. Without Fluke Networks’ Gold support, engineers would be faced with considerable repair overheads as well as the added expense of device rental.

 “Anyone working in the datacomms industry who is responsible for either installing or maintaining network cables will want to show that they have been checked correctly and are operating according to the relevant standards. That’s why it’s important for engineers to have their testing equipment professionally calibrated while taking advantage of an easy-to-use, reliable loan service that ensures they can continue to do their work with minimum disruption,” says Nigel Hedges, Application and Technology Specialist at Fluke Networks. “'Fluke Networks’ ‘Bundle and save’ package is designed to give datacomms network engineers the industry’s best equipment discounts combined with genuine peace of mind in the knowledge that they will not have to face any untoward costs. There is simply nothing like it on the market today.”

Thermal imaging offer!

A promotion offering customers a free thermal imaging lens when they buy a Fluke thermal imaging camera between 1 September and 15 December 2021 has been announced*. The lenses provide greater flexibility across the range of applications for thermal imaging cameras by delivering increased accuracy and precise image quality. All lenses are interchangeable and compatible with Fluke’s range of thermal imaging cameras.

Nicolas Bravo de Medina, Marketing Director EMEA at Fluke said: "In offering a free lens with a selected range of Fluke thermal imagers, our customers can capture the high-definition thermal images needed to complete reliability inspections, make industrial maintenance decisions, conduct building diagnostic testing and troubleshooting. There is no need for customers to use their lens straight away. All lenses are compatible with our range of thermal imaging cameras, so it is possible to claim the free lens now and use it when it is required. Our thermal imaging cameras are designed for reliability and ease of use to ensure our customers can easily implement safe preventative maintenance programs."

Thermal imaging applications
Thermal imaging cameras offer a fast assessment of the health and condition of assets and are widely used in industrial maintenance and facilities management applications. Through infrared image capture, the cameras are used to spot a lack of uniformity in equipment by indicating hot and cold spots in surface temperature. Heat is often an early symptom of equipment damage or malfunction, making it an important factor to monitor in preventive maintenance programs. Thermal imaging technology is also used for predictive maintenance in process plants, industrial quality control, utilities and building inspection.

Lens benefits
The Wide-Angle Infrared Smart Lens offers a greater field of view which is particularly useful when scanning large areas like ceilings or roofs, as well as when monitoring assets in tight spaces. The 2x Telephoto Infrared Smart Lens magnifies two times more than a standard lens allowing the thermographer to remain at a safe distance from the target being scanned.

* How does it work?
Customers purchasing a qualifying Fluke thermal imager between 1 September and 15 December 2021 from an authorised distributor can claim a lens of their choice (either a 2x Telephoto Infrared Smart Lens or a Wide-angle Infrared Smart Lens) from the site here. The qualifying thermal imaging cameras include the Fluke Ti300+, Ti401Pro, Ti480Pro, Tix501 and Tix580 thermal imager. A receipt or invoice must be uploaded to verify proof of purchase. The free lens will be dispatched from Fluke within three weeks of the claim being made.
