Powerful inspection tool features infrared guided measurement tech
The FLIR DM285 industrial thermal imaging digital multimeter clamp meter has just been introduced by FLIR as an industrial inspection, troubleshooting and diagnostic tool for electrical distribution, electro-mechanical, heating, ventilation, air conditioning/refrigeration (HVAC/R), and electronics equipment applications.
Thermal imaging combined with precision electrical measurement
The latest thermal imaging multimeter has been announced by FLIR, the FLIR DM166 which has Infrared Guided Measurement (IGM), and is the industry’s most affordable digital multimeter/thermal imager combination. The FLIR DM166 features 80x60 thermal resolution, broad multimeter test functions, and the flexibility for use in both high and low voltage applications.
T&M meters feature infrared guided measurement
At the North American Electrical Contractors (NECA) show in Seattle, Washington, FLIR announced six test and measurement products arriving later this year, including two digital multimeters and a clamp meter that feature FLIR’s IGM (Infrared Guided Measurement). Powered by the FLIR Lepton microcamera thermal core, the FLIR DM166 and FLIR DM285 digital multimeters and the FLIR CM275 clamp meter feature a built-in screen t...
Thermal imaging assists sports and exercise science research
At Portsmouth University, the Department of Sport and Exercise Science have been reporting on the advantages of using FLIR Systems thermal imaging cameras for measuring skin temperature at rest, during exercise, and recovery. Skin temperature is an important physiological measure that can reflect the presence of illness and injury as well as provide insight into the localised interactions between the body and the environment.
Thermal imaging camera accelerates board inspection
An application note details how FLIR Systems’ ETS320 thermal imaging camera is being used by Stuttgart-based ISOMEDIA to investigate and speed-up the repair of assembled printed circuit boards (PBA). ISOMEDIA is a leading customer service provider and same day repair centre for leading brands of mobile devices in Germany.
Free clamp meter with every infrared camera
The ability to receive and correlate measurement data from similarly WiFi enabled meters is a benefit of the FLIR Ex-Series point-and-shoot thermal imaging cameras. Until the end of September 2017, anyone buying a FLIR E6 or E8 camera will be able to experience this functionality for free. For this limited period, every FLIR E6 or E8 ordered will come complete with a FLIR CM4x clamp meter. The FLIR Ex-Series infrared cameras are p...
Going back to basics with capturing thermal images
FLIR Systems’ Infrared Training Centre (ITC) is going back to basics for its next webinar. With the sophistication of thermal imaging cameras growing with each generation, it is easy to forget that the efficiency and accuracy of these devices is very much dependant on the knowledge and skill of the user.
Thermal imaging validates the quality of automotive parts
Plastics play an increasingly important role in product design and IR welding is a popular method of joining these components. For one manufacturer of instrument panels and cockpit systems, Yanfeng Automotive Interiors, IR welding has proved a sound investment and it is complemented by FLIR thermal imaging to monitor the efficiency of the process. This technology is responsible for ensuring consistent welding quality, high product throughput and ...
Thermal imaging cameras aid hummingbird research
Thermal imaging cameras developed by FLIR Systems are being used by researchers at the Loyola Marymount University (LMU) Center for Urban Resilience in Los Angeles to better understand how hummingbirds have an incredible ability to maintain strength with little rest. Understanding the physiological mechanisms hummingbirds use to cope with extreme energy requirements and limitations may open the door to broader, human medical applications such as ...
Thermography camera series feature laser-assisted autofocus
Professional thermal imaging cameras, designed for thermographers who operate in a variety of environments including power generation, electrical distribution, and research laboratories has been introduced by FLIR Systems. These cameras offer enhanced ergonomics with 180° rotating optical blocks, laser-assisted autofocus, and auto-calibrating lenses that are interchangeable with select FLIR camera models.
Thermal camera focuses on analysing and testing PCBs
Aiming to advance testing and diagnosis accuracy in the electronics industry, FLIR Systems has introduced the ETS320 thermal imaging solution for electronics testing in engineering benchtop environments. It is the first FLIR camera designed specifically for benchtop work in testing and analysing the thermal characteristics of electronic components and printed circuit boards (PCBs).
SLS detectors allow faster frame rates on thermal cameras
Two high-speed, longwave thermal cameras for demanding science and research applications have been introduced by FLIR Systems. The FLIR X6900sc SLS and FLIR X8500sc SLS were shown at the SPIE Defense and Commercial Sensing convention in Anaheim. Both cameras provide the faster frame rates, shorter snapshot speeds, and wider temperature ranges needed for the most demanding scientific research applications.
Thermal imaging cameras feature intelligent interchangeable lenses
FLIR Systems has announced three Exx-series advanced thermal imaging cameras for electrical, mechanical, and building applications: the FLIR E75, E85, and E95.
FLIR launches five thermal cameras
FLIR Systems announced the launch of five thermal imaging cameras in the first week of January, including two new third generation FLIR ONE thermal camera attachments for smartphones, two new dual sensor thermal cameras for drones, and a ruggedised compact thermal camera for home and building inspectors.
Infra-red camera targets R&D, science
