It has been reported that eight of the ten worst environment polluting buildings in the UK are hospitals which on average emit 4089 tonnes of CO2 per institution per year. And although through the Private Finance Initiative new, purpose-built facilities are being established many hospitals still comprise legacy buildings whose fabric contributes to their energy inefficiency. This is where FLIR thermal imaging really comes into its own. It’s the ideal method of detecting the faults that compromise as building’s thermal performance, whether it is new or old.
At the Scottish Healthcare Conference, FLIR, the world leader in thermal imaging, will focus on its entire range of infrared cameras that has been purpose-built for building inspection. The FLIR B-Series comprises a range of models that cover every application need and every budget allocation. It extends from the eminently affordable FLIR i5 and i7 find-it-fix-it models right up to the highly sophisticated FLIR B660 that has every feature for the professional thermographer.
Typical of the FLIR mid-range B-Series infrared cameras is the B425 that is packed with useful features designed to help building inspectors improve their efficiency in seeking out energy loss.
Standard camera features include the ability to show insulation performance of the building structure. Users can quickly record the leak points, using the camera’s laser marker to mark the exact locations on the image.
Other important features include auto-focus, digital zoom lens, text annotations and in-built light to ensure sharp images, regardless of lighting conditions. Ergonomic design combined with low weight, picture-in-picture fusion, touch screen, tiltable lens unit and interchangeable optics complete the package.
The entire FLIR Systems range of cameras now comprises more than forty models and some of these are the tools of choice for both clinicians and those involved in public protection against infectious diseases.
FLIR has now equipped two of its camera models with specific features to ensure fast and efficient detection of abnormal body temperature. These cameras come complete with automatic temperature compensation. This feature automatically normalises variations in ambient temperature, allowing the camera to compare the temperature of an individual with that of others in close proximity. In effect it provides an average group body temperature allowing anyone with elevated values to be picked out from the crowd.
