The Flir i7 extends the specifications of the i5 compact range to include 120 x 120 pixels resolution with increased field of view and higher thermal sensitivity.

It is designed for tough onsite use and has a double-moulded construction.

Weighing 340g it meets IP43 dust/splashproof standards, has a shock rating of 25G and a vibration rating of 2G.

A rechargeable battery allows more than four hours of continuous operation.

Images are viewed on the camera's 71mm high-resolution colour LCD and their transfer to a PC is accomplished via the microSD card or USB connection.

Flir's radiometric JPEG format allows temperature data to be analysed directly from a common image format using Flir's Quickreport software that is standard with the camera package.

No complicated export routines need to be followed so that inspection findings can be shared.

The radiometric JPEGs and MSWord reports can simply be emailed as attachments.

Other features of the new Flir i7 are intuitive menu navigation, a thumbnail gallery and a focus-free lens that makes it even easier for a novice to take advantage of thermal imaging.

Three measurement modes are available for extensive analysis: spot (centre), area (minimum/maximum) and isotherm (above/below).

Image controls include three palette options: iron, rainbow and black and white.

The Flir i7 camera package includes a 512Mb microSD card, miniSD adaptor, Li-ion rechargeable battery with AC adaptor/charger, Quickreport software, USB cable, built-in lens protector, hand strap and hard case.
