Microscopic Thermal Resolution for Electronics
The UT-Z047 Macro Lens delivers extraordinary 50μm resolution, enabling thermal imaging of individual electronic components, circuit traces, semiconductor dies, and other miniaturized elements that standard thermal cameras cannot resolve. This microscopic capability allows engineers and technicians to identify failing components on densely populated circuit boards, detect thermal anomalies in surface-mount devices measuring just millimeters across, and perform detailed thermal analysis of integrated circuits and power electronics. The 50μm resolution represents approximately 500 times finer detail than human hair thickness, providing genuine microscopic thermal imaging capability.
The specialized 27mm to 76mm imaging range positions the camera extraordinarily close to the target, with the optimal working distance around 40-50mm (1.6-2.0 inches) where the lens delivers maximum resolution and image quality. This ultra-close perspective combined with the UTi760X's 640x512 detector array enables thermal imaging of circuit boards, semiconductor packages, and precision assemblies with unprecedented detail. The F/1.1 aperture provides excellent light gathering for the close working distances, ensuring the camera maintains thermal sensitivity even when imaging small, low-emissivity components.

Understanding Macro Thermal Imaging Performance
The UT-Z047's extraordinary 50μm resolution enables thermal imaging at scales previously requiring specialized thermal microscopes. At the optimal working distance of approximately 40-50mm, the practical imaging capabilities are:
- At 27mm (minimum distance): Captures approximately 11mm x 9mm area (0.43" x 0.35")
- At 40mm (optimal distance): Captures approximately 17mm x 14mm area (0.67" x 0.55")
- At 50mm (optimal distance): Captures approximately 21mm x 17mm area (0.83" x 0.67")
- At 76mm (maximum distance): Captures approximately 32mm x 26mm area (1.26" x 1.02")
The 50μm resolution means at optimal working distance, the UTi760X's 640x512 detector can resolve:
- Individual SMD resistors and capacitors (0402 and larger packages)
- Integrated circuit pin temperatures on DIP, SOIC, and QFP packages
- Individual circuit board traces and vias
- Solder joints and connection points
- LED die temperatures in multi-chip arrays
- Small electronic component thermal gradients
This microscopic thermal capability enables component-level troubleshooting and quality control that standard thermal imaging cannot achieve.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Macro Lens different from using the Standard Lens at close distance?
The UT-Z047 Macro Lens uses specialized optical design that allows the UTi760X to focus at ultra-close distances (27-76mm) while maintaining image sharpness and measurement accuracy. Standard lenses have minimum focus distances of 100mm or more and cannot achieve sharp images closer than their minimum focus specification. More importantly, the macro lens provides genuine 50μm resolution through optimized optics, whereas attempting close-up work with a standard lens would result in blurred images with poor spatial resolution. The macro lens is specifically engineered for the optical challenges of ultra-close thermal imaging.
Can I inspect live circuit boards with the Macro Lens?
Yes, thermal imaging is inherently non-contact and safe for live circuit board inspection. The UT-Z047 enables you to identify overheating components, short circuits, and thermal design issues on powered electronics without risk of damage or electrical shock. However, maintain awareness that the close working distance (27-76mm) requires careful positioning to avoid physical contact with energized circuits. Many technicians use a stable camera mount or tripod for macro thermal imaging to ensure consistent focus and safe clearance from live components. The macro lens is particularly valuable for troubleshooting because it reveals thermal anomalies that multimeters cannot detect.
What is the practical field of view for circuit board inspection?
At the optimal working distance of 40-50mm (1.6-2.0 inches), the UT-Z047 captures approximately 17-21mm x 14-17mm (0.67-0.83" x 0.55-0.67") of circuit board area. This coverage is ideal for detailed analysis of power supply sections, processor areas, or specific circuit blocks. With the UTi760X's 640x512 resolution and 50μm capability, you can simultaneously image dozens of surface-mount components in a single thermal image. For complete board documentation, capture multiple overlapping images that can be assembled into comprehensive thermal maps during analysis.
Does the close working distance affect measurement accuracy?
The UT-Z047 maintains the UTi760X's measurement accuracy specifications within its designed working range of 27-76mm. However, electronics thermal imaging requires attention to emissivity settings, as many electronic components have low emissivity (shiny metal surfaces, plastic packages). The UTi760X allows emissivity adjustment from 0.1 to 1.0 to accommodate different materials. For most accurate results on circuit boards, use emissivity values around 0.90-0.95 for FR4 board material and solder mask, 0.85-0.90 for plastic IC packages, and 0.30-0.50 for bare metal surfaces. The close working distance actually improves measurement by minimizing atmospheric attenuation between lens and target.
What is the warranty period for the UT-Z047 Macro Lens?
UNI-T provides a 1-year warranty on the UT-Z047 Macro Lens, covering manufacturing defects and component failures under normal use conditions. This warranty ensures your investment in specialized thermal imaging accessories is protected.
