Thermal imagers

With the introduction of its new Flir T600 Series, Flir Systems believes it has set a new benchmark for the commercial application of high calibre thermal imaging.

The T620 and 640 models are said to be highly ergonomic and easy to use, even when wearing PPE. Both have an uncooled microbolometer detector that produces crisp 640 x 480 pixel thermal images on which the smallest of details can be seen.

Temperature differences of 0.04°C can be seen on the T640 and it can measure temperatures to 2000°C.

Accuracy is to within 2% or ±2°. Application flexibility is enhanced by a choice of lenses beyond the standard 25°.

Both models have a 5 megapixel digital camera that generates sharp reference images. An LED lamp is provided for dark environments and a rotating optical block is said to make it easy to capture images from challenging angles.
