Fluke (FTV) introduced five electrical testing bundles for students, apprentices and early-career electricians learning safety checks and diagnostics.
The kits progress from non-contact voltage and outlet testing to current measurement, AC/DC troubleshooting and temperature diagnostics. The Student Essential Kit pairs a voltage tester with a GFCI socket tester; the Journeyman Diagnostic Kit combines a clamp meter, digital multimeter and thermocouple. Bundled kits offer 10% savings. Eligible students, recent graduates and apprentices can receive an additional 25% off select Fluke instruments through the Fluke Education Partnership Program.
Fluke (FTV) has expanded its iSee™ Mobile Imaging Series with two plug-in tools for Android™ devices: the TC03A Thermal Camera and the ii01 Acoustic Camera, designed to bring professional diagnostics directly to smartphones.
The TC03A offers 384 × 288 thermal resolution with SuperResolution up to 768 × 576, manual focus for varying inspection distances, and integration with the Fluke iSee™ app for temperature‑difference insights, alerts, and real-time warnings. The ii01 acoustic camera uses SoundMap™ technology to locate compressed air and gas leaks, with a detection frequency range of 2 kHz to 48 kHz and a detection range up to 50 meters, supplemented by a one‑key leak mode and real‑time dB readings. Both devices feature a compact, rugged IP54 design and connected workflows to support faster, mobile-first maintenance.
Fortive (FTV) has appointed Susan L. Main to its Board of Directors, effective September 9, 2026, expanding the Board from eight to nine members.
Main was also named to the Audit Committee. She most recently served as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Teledyne Technologies from 2012 to 2023, after earlier roles as Teledyne’s Vice President and Controller and senior finance positions at Water Pik Technologies, Allegheny Teledyne, and Hughes Aircraft. She currently sits on the boards of Allegion, where she chairs the Audit and Finance Committee, and Ashland, where she is Lead Director and serves on the Audit and Compensation Committees.
Fortive (FTV), through its Fluke business, has partnered with Washington State University to open the new Fluke Engineering Lab at WSU Everett’s Voiland College of Engineering and Architecture.
The lab will provide more than 4,000 engineering students across five WSU campuses with hands-on experience using over 30 Fluke measurement and test tools, including thermal imaging, digital multimeters, calibration equipment and energy loggers. The initiative is intended to help address manufacturing workforce skills gaps and aligns with Fluke’s ongoing mentorship of WSU capstone projects and broader support for industry-connected engineering education across the WSU system.
Fluke (FTV) launched the ii01 Acoustic Camera for Android, the first product in its Fluke iSee mobile imaging series, bringing professional acoustic diagnostics to more technicians via a compact, mobile-first platform.
The ii01 connects to Android devices via USB‑C for plug‑and‑play operation and uses Fluke SoundMap technology with high‑precision MEMS sensors to locate sound sources and visualize acoustic data in the Fluke iSee app. It targets industrial uses such as compressed air leak detection, air‑tightness verification, and energy‑waste inspection, with a detection frequency range of 2 kHz to 48 kHz. Weighing about 50 grams, the rugged device supports image and video capture, sharing, and reporting directly from the mobile device to help maintenance teams reduce downtime and improve productivity.
