FLIR hopes that anyone interested in
deepening their knowledge of
thermal imaging will find a visit to
the company’s website –
www.flir.com – time well spent. Flir
has created a free guide aimed at any
would-be thermographer. The guide is
available as a download and as a 48-
page hard copy.

It provides a thorough grounding
in industrial and building science
infrared. The content takes the
reader through the design of a
thermal imaging camera, how it
works and why the technology is so
important in a world so highly
focussed on thermal efficiency and
minimising energy loss.

There is a section that explores the
science behind thermography in
industrial and building applications
and information on how to identify
the camera features that best suit the
task. There’s also a section on
thermal inspection and how to
achieve the best results.
