FLIR DM286 Industrial Thermal Imaging Multimeter with TRMS, IGM™ and MSX®
Precision starts with safety
The FLIR DM286 industrial imaging multimeter is the ultimate tool for electrical inspectors seeking a safe, accurate, and efficient way to identify, document, and share findings. With IGM™ (Infrared Guided Measurement) and MSX® (Multi-Spectral Dynamic Imaging), you can safely identify where hazards might be before contact is ever made. The powerful multimeter can capture and store up to 30,000 images and 100 log files, with the ability to record thermal and visual video clips. Stream live data in real time from the DM286 to your mobile device. Use the METERLiNK® app to quickly and efficiently capture readings, images, and videos for analysis, trending, and sharing.
Key Features & Benefits
- IGM™ (Infrared Guided Measurement) for safer non-contact thermal inspections
- Unrivaled thermal image clarity with MSX® (Multi-Spectral Dynamic Imaging)
- Seamless integration with METERLiNK® App
What can you do with FLIR
- Identifying hot spots in electrical components
- Diagnosing intermittent electrical problems
- Data logging and tracking changes in electrical systems
Perform safe, accurate & quick inspections
Safely locate potentially dangerous problems without
direct contact using FLIR IGM. MSX gives you unrivaled clarity by embedding edge and outline detail onto thermal
images.
Purpose built for all day operation The FLIR DM286 comes with a built-in LED worklight for better visibility in dark or poorly lit areas, two rechargeable Lithium Polymer battery packs for all-day operation, and a 2 m drop test rating for durability.
Unmatched connectivity Use the FLIR METERLiNK app to quickly and efficiently capture and compare readings, analyze and share radiometric images and videos, and create reports.

Connect up to seven compatible meters at once with the FLIR METERLiNK® app
With the FLIR METERLiNK Bluetooth® app you can monitor a variety of electrical and environmental conditions simultaneously. METERLiNK allows you to safely capture images and monitor hazardous areas remotely and in real time. Whether you're connecting several FLIR clamp meters, digital multimeters, or any of the new METERLiNK app compatible meters, you will be able to keep tabs on key readings around your facility and easily share them with your team.
App Features:
- View trends in real time - The new METERLiNK app dashboard is configured for easy condition monitoring, showing both a graphical and numerical representation of measurement data in real time with min, max, and average reading displays. An instantaneous data window opens when you tap any point on a measurement graph. You can also define alarm thresholds (high and low alarms). This provides additional assurance of operating ranges while performing testing procedures. Triggered alarms show on-screen messages with relevant readings and timestamps.
- Compare data from multiple meters - The METERLiNK app also provides the ability to compare log files, allowing you to review and compare any combination of meters and data points. This functionality will enable you to effectively troubleshoot and compare logs.
- Create professional reports - When it comes to sharing insights, a key feature of the METERLiNK app is the ability to create detailed, custom, PDF reports. With the ability to add custom logos, additional notes and specific measurements, the METERLiNK app allows you to easily compile and share insights quickly and professionally. With the METERLiNK app, you can also add data log files, images, and short video clips in your reports.
- Easy-to-use and personalized features - The METERLiNK app includes dark/light display mode options, links that connect to the FLIR support site for fast troubleshooting, and automatic app updates. You can also enable text notifications for low battery, a disconnected meter, or alarm events for each connected meter.
