The evolution of infrared continues

FLIR Systems is showing its latest generation infrared cameras, the widest range in the industry. The range provides a camera to suit every plant maintenance application and every budget, from the simple find-it-fix-it jobs through to those that demand the best that the technology can offer.

Top of the range is the ThermaCAM® P640. In creating this portable thermal imaging camera whose picture quality is better than any other off the shelf model on the market, FLIR Systems was able to factor in far more than just superior detector technology. In addition to the 640 x 480 pixel detector and brand new software, the ThermaCAM® P640 also features high-powered lenses, developed and manufactured in-house by FLIR Systems. No infrared specialist other than FLIR Systems has this facility.

Aimed at the advanced and frequent user of infrared the new ThermaCAM® T-Series is a mid-range camera with many high end, time saving features. The integration of thermal and visual imaging been perfected in the ThermaCAM® T-Series and it also introduces a really clever overlaying facility called Thermal Fusion. This allows the automatic and seamless transition of images from thermal to visual and vice versa, on the screen, whilst retaining all measurement functions in both view modes. It makes it so much easier to see problems.

The interchangeable lens is a standard feature on the majority of FLIR Systems’ cameras and that even includes the ThermaCAM® E-Series. This considerably extends the application potential of these good quality, value for money cameras. Examples from all ranges will be demonstrated on the FLIR Systems and completing the picture will be the InfraCAM® SD. This find-it-fix-it camera allows up to 1000 radiometric .jpeg images to be stored on a removable SD card.
