100mm USL lens enables accurate long distance temperature measurement
FLIR Systems has introduced a new 100mm USL lens for its FLIR X6500sc thermal imaging cameras. This motorised F/2 lens provides a 5.5 degree horizontal field of view making it ideal for measuring the temperature of distant targets. Applications that will benefit from the new addition to the X6500sc lens portfolio include safe, remote temperature measurements of tyres, brake disks, airbag deployment or other fast moving objects observed from a dis...
Comparing Thermal Imaging Cameras & IR Thermometers for Non-Contact Temperature Measurement
FLIR Systems has published a comparison of the benefits of using a thermal imaging camera versus an Infrared thermometer for non-contact measurement of temperature across a range of industrial and scientific R&D applications. Infrared thermometers are reliable and very useful for single-spot temperature readings, but, for scanning large areas or systems, it’s easy to miss critical components that may be near failure and need repair or replaceme...
FLIR Introduce Affordable Camera Packs for R&D Applications
FLIR Systems has introduced the affordable SC35, SC15 and SC5 camera packs for R&D applications. Thermal imaging cameras can be used for a wide variety of R&D applications. However until now access to high performance thermal imaging cameras was often the privilege of just larger R&D groups.
Monitoring High Temperature Industrial Installations
An application report from FLIR Systems details how the German Bayernoil refinery complex has used a FLIR infrared furnace camera to monitor its hydro reformers enabling them to keep the installations up and running efficiently.
FLIR Camera Aids Diagnosis of Neurological Disorder
Early results from the NeuroSIPE programme 'Beyond Pain' project, in research funded by the Dutch Technology Foundation STW, demonstrate how a FLIR SC5600 thermal imaging camera has been used as an effective, non-invasive tool for monitoring of pain processing in the central nervous system of patients suffering from small fiber neuropathy.
Hypersonic Aerodynamic Design Benefits from Thermal Imaging
An applications report from FLIR Systems details how the Aerospace Research Group at the University of Manchester are using a FLIR SC655 thermal imaging camera to test models and aircraft components subjected to hypersonic airflows. For the purpose of space exploration and aircraft technologies, researchers are exploring travelling at hypersonic speeds, which entails attaining speeds higher than Mach 5, more than five times the speed of sound.
FLIR Camera Helps Lessen Environmental Impact of Landfill Site
A report from FLIR Systems describes how Norwegian waste treatment company - Lindum Ressurs og Gjenvinning AS has successfully implemented a FLIR GF320 gas camera to spot methane leaks, prevent uncontrolled gas venting and keep the air clean at and around its landfill sites.
Thermal Imaging Cameras for Research and Development
FLIR Systems has announced a comprehensive 30-page brochure that details its latest high performance uncooled thermal imaging cameras and systems purpose designed for Research and Development applications. In Research and Development applications, accuracy, reliability, sensitivity and high performance are vitally important.
Gold Medal Thermography
We all know the application scope for thermal imaging is expanding all the time but here is a new addition that is particularly topical. A FLIR T425 thermal imaging camera supplied by Bedford-based Thermascan has taken time out from its usual predictive maintenance and condition monitoring duties to provide artistic images of British elite athletes.
Stone Wool Insulation Market Leader Recommends FLIR Thermal Imaging
In Rockwool’s opinion, thermal imaging is the ideal tool for determining the effectiveness of insulation material and the company is working with FLIR Systems ITC to provide industry with a dedicated training programme for this application. Its aim is to give Rockwool distributors and building professionals in Germany, access to expert tuition in the practical use of thermal imaging for building science.
