HD format for latest thermography system
10 October 2019
The new ImageIR 9500 expands InfraTec's range of thermography systems and is suitable for tests in the mid infrared range.

The special feature of the ImageIR 9500 is its cooled FPA photon detector. This is based on highly sensitive mercury cadmium telluride (MCT) and has a 16:9 HD format with (1,280 x 720) IR pixels. Due to its high native geometrical resolution, smallest structures on large-scale objects can be analysed in detail.
In combination with a high-performance microscopic lens, it enables the display of structures of up to 1.5μm in size. Users save valuable time by reducing the number of required single recordings while avoiding geometrical measurement errors.
Further efficiency is achieved by using InfraTec´s MicroScan function. Thanks to this, the geometrical resolution can be increased to 3.7 Megapixels in full-frame. Images of this quality show the measurement objects in extremely high resolution.
Based on such values, the ImageIR 9500 is suitable for international usage in scientific and research institutions. Other technical features of the camera underline this profile. This includes the thermal resolution of up to 0.025 K. It supports the reliable detection of very small temperature differences on measurement objects and creates the requirements for creating noise-free thermal images. IR frame rates up to 1.5 kHz in quarter-frame together with extremely short integration times of only a few microseconds provide users with the ability to analyse fast-running thermal processes.
As with other infrared cameras in the ImageIR series, this model is extremely flexible to configure. The camera comes with latest detector linear cooler technology. Its modular design provides convenient retrofitting with components such as motorised focus, internal high-speed shutters as well as motorised filter respective aperture wheels. This means that users can easily solve their measurement tasks – no matter what field of application they are working in.
