Infrared evolves - at the Plant + Works
Exhibition
The evolution of infrared continues, and can be seen at the Flir Systems stand #P90 at the Plant and Works Exhibition - 22nd - 24th April 2008, at the NEC in Birmingham
Flir Systems thermal imaging cameras are now highly compact - and getting smaller - and much lighter, but no less robust They are also packed with many more features than their forerunners of just a few years ago

Benefits of Infrared thermography
Infrared thermography offers distinct benefits in fixed-mounted applications within design and production engineering: it is able to 'see' thermal patterns and use it in real time to alarm or control
FLIR opens up the market for infrared thermography
The ability to monitor and assess prototype performance and production processes using thermography is not new, but the cost and complexity of the technology has proved prohibitive to many OEMs
This growth path has given Flir Systems thermal imaging cameras much greater application scope and that trend continues apace.
Flir Systems will be showing its latest generation infrared cameras, the widest range in the industry.
The range provides a camera to suit every plant maintenance application and every budget, from the simple find-it-fix-it jobs through to those that demand the best that the technology can offer.
Top of the range is the ThermaCAM P640.
In creating this portable thermal imaging camera whose picture quality is better than any other off the shelf model on the market, Flir Systems was able to factor in far more than just superior detector technology.
In addition to the 640 x 480 pixel detector and brand new software, the ThermaCAM P640 also features high-powered lenses, developed and manufactured in-house by Flir Systems.
No infrared specialist other than Flir Systems has this facility.
Aimed at the advanced and frequent user of infrared, the new ThermaCAM T-Series is a mid-range camera with many high end, time saving features.
The integration of thermal and visual imaging been perfected in the ThermaCAM T-Series and it also introduces a really clever overlaying facility called Thermal Fusion.
This allows the automatic and seamless transition of images from thermal to visual and vice versa, on the screen, whilst retaining all measurement functions in both view modes.
It makes it so much easier to see problems.
The interchangeable lens is a standard feature on the majority of Flir Systems cameras and that even includes the ThermaCAM E-Series.
This considerably extends the application potential of these good quality, value for money cameras.
Examples from all ranges will be demonstrated on the Flir Systems and completing the picture will be the InfraCAM SD.
This find-it-fix-it camera allows up to 1000 radiometric .jpeg images to be stored on a removable SD card. Request a free brochure from Flir Systems ...
