The affordable, uncooled thermal imaging camera
With the introduction of the new ThermaCAM SC500, FLIR Systems is able to extend the benefits of its patented solid state microbolometer detector techlogy to the R and D community.
It will allow users to look at new applications, such minimising energy loss.
Weighing less than 340g it has an 80 x 80 pixel IR resolution and thermal sensitivity of 60mK, which provides a clear infra-red image so that faults can be identified and remedial action taken; a long life battery provides up to 5 hours of continuous operation.
Temperatures up to +250C can be measured with the i5 and it can detect thermal differences as small as 0.1C.
Images are displayed on the camera's bright 2.8in LCD.
This measurement range enables the camera to meet the needs of a very wide range of mechanical, electrical and plumbing applications in domestic, commercial and industrial environments.
This multipurpose camera is also easy to use and requires no user experience.
Users need only point and shoot to detect hotspots.
The resultant JPG images carry all the necessary temperature data and can be stored on a built-in SD card or directly onto a PC for analysis or e-mail.
The i5 comes with Flir QuickReport software for image analysis and easy creation of reports in PDF format.
Also standard within the package are a 512Mbyte mini SD card, Li-Ion rechargeable battery with adapter/charger, USB cable and built-in lens shutter, hand strap, manual and user CD. Request a free brochure from Flir Systems ...
