UT-Z043 Wide-Angle Lens for UNI-T UTI760X Thermal Imager

UNI-T UT-Z043 Wide-Angle Lens for UTi760X Thermal Camera

Maximum Coverage for Confined Spaces and Large Area Surveys

The UNI-T UT-Z043 Wide-Angle Lens transforms the UTi760X thermal camera into the ultimate tool for close-quarters inspections and comprehensive area surveys. With its expansive 46° x 37° field of view and ultra-short 9.6mm focal length, this lens captures nearly double the area of the standard lens, making it indispensable for cramped electrical rooms, tight mechanical spaces, and rapid facility-wide thermal scanning. The exceptionally close 0.1m (3.9 inch) minimum imaging distance enables detailed inspection in confined areas where standard lenses cannot focus, while the F/1.0 aperture ensures maximum thermal sensitivity for the UTi760X's advanced 640x512 detector array.

Exceptional Coverage for Efficient Inspections

The UT-Z043 Wide-Angle Lens excels in applications where maximum field coverage is essential. Its 46° x 37° field of view captures expansive areas in single images, dramatically reducing the time required for comprehensive facility surveys and enabling complete thermal documentation of large equipment installations. This wide perspective is particularly valuable in confined mechanical rooms, electrical enclosures, and tight industrial spaces where backing up to gain distance isn't possible. The lens allows inspectors to capture entire distribution panels, complete machinery assemblies, or full wall sections from close working distances.

The ultra-short 0.1m (3.9 inch) minimum imaging distance sets the UT-Z043 apart for close-proximity work. This capability enables detailed inspection inside electrical cabinets, behind equipment, within HVAC plenums, and in other restricted access areas where conventional lenses cannot achieve focus. The F/1.0 aperture maximizes the UTi760X's thermal sensitivity, ensuring excellent image quality even when working in challenging measurement scenarios with limited space for optimal camera positioning.

Technical Specifications

Understanding Wide-Angle Coverage and Resolution

The UT-Z043's expansive 46° x 37° field of view dramatically increases area coverage compared to standard lenses. At typical working distances, this translates to:

• At 0.5m (1.6 ft): Captures approximately 0.41m x 0.33m (16.1" x 13.0")
• At 1m (3.3 ft): Captures approximately 0.82m x 0.66m (32.3" x 26.0")
• At 3m (9.8 ft): Captures approximately 2.46m x 1.98m (96.9" x 78.0")
• At 5m (16.4 ft): Captures approximately 4.10m x 3.30m (161" x 130")

The 1.28 mrad spatial resolution (IFOV) provides appropriate detail for overview assessments and hotspot identification. With the UTi760X's 640x512 detector:

• At 0.5m (1.6 ft): Each pixel represents approximately 0.64mm (0.025")
• At 1m (3.3 ft): Each pixel represents approximately 1.28mm (0.050")
• At 5m (16.4 ft): Each pixel represents approximately 6.4mm (0.25")
• At 10m (32.8 ft): Each pixel represents approximately 12.8mm (0.50")

This spatial resolution is ideal for identifying thermal anomalies and general equipment assessment, though detailed component-level analysis may require switching to the standard or telephoto lens for maximum accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I choose the Wide-Angle Lens over the Standard Lens?

Choose the UT-Z043 Wide-Angle Lens when you need maximum area coverage in confined spaces or want to minimize the number of images required for complete facility documentation. It's ideal for electrical cabinet internals, mechanical rooms with limited space, comprehensive building surveys, and situations where backing away from the target isn't possible. The wide field of view also accelerates initial thermal surveys by capturing more equipment and building area in each frame, making it excellent for rapid facility screening and emergency troubleshooting.

Does the wider field of view affect measurement accuracy?

The UT-Z043 maintains the same measurement accuracy standards as other UTi760X lenses within its temperature range. However, the wider spatial resolution (1.28 mrad vs 0.66 mrad for the standard lens) means each detector pixel covers a slightly larger area of the target. For overview work and hotspot identification, this difference is insignificant. For detailed component-level temperature measurement of small targets, you may want to capture overview images with the wide-angle lens, then switch to the standard or telephoto lens for precise measurement of specific components.

Can I use the Wide-Angle Lens for electrical panel inspections from safe working distances?

Absolutely. The UT-Z043 is particularly effective for electrical panel inspections because its wide field of view allows you to capture complete distribution panels, motor control centers, and switchgear installations from minimum safe approach distances. At 1 meter (3.3 ft), the lens captures approximately 0.82m x 0.66m (32" x 26"), sufficient for most residential and light commercial panels. At 2 meters (6.6 ft), you can image industrial-size panels measuring up to 1.64m x 1.32m (65" x 52") in a single thermal image.

What makes the 0.1m minimum focus distance important?

The UT-Z043's 0.1m (3.9 inch) minimum imaging distance is the shortest in the UTi760X lens system, enabling inspection in extremely confined spaces where other lenses cannot achieve focus. This capability is critical when working inside electrical cabinets, behind equipment, in HVAC plenums, crawl spaces, and other restricted-access areas. The ultra-close focus combined with the wide field of view allows you to capture complete equipment sections or component arrays even when working in spaces where you can barely position the camera.

What is the warranty period for the UT-Z043 Wide-Angle Lens?

UNI-T provides a 1-year warranty on the UT-Z043 Wide-Angle Lens, covering manufacturing defects and component failures under normal use conditions. This warranty ensures your investment in professional thermal imaging accessories is protected.
