Analysis software supports all major IR cameras

Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team May 5, 2006

Thermoteknix analysis software now supports all the major infra-red camera brands, including all Flir Systems, Inframetrics, Agema, Avio and of course, Thermoteknix.

Until now, infra-red camera purchasers have been restricted to buying their thermal imaging software only from one source, their camera manufacturer.

Besides the inevitable price premium, this restrictive practice has caused many difficulties when customers choose to buy cameras from different manufacturers, with the resulting incompatibility of their images and software between the cameras, the thermographers and their computers and reports.

Thermoteknix has solved this major problem for all infra-red camera users with an industry first.

The new release of Thermoteknix' leading thermal image processing and reporting package, TherMonitor Reporter, and its asset based condition monitoring system, Condition Red are fully compatible with the largest installed base of infra-red camera users in the world.

Now, thermographers can have a choice of software supplier and have seamless integration of all their images with access to these time-saving image processing and invaluable tools - regardless of which camera they have bought, or are planning to buy in the future.

Thermoteknix analysis software now supports all the major infra-red camera brands, including all Flir Systems, Inframetrics, Agema, Avio and of course, Thermoteknix.

Thermoteknix has long been recognised as the leading developer and innovator in the field of thermal imaging software due to its powerful and unique list of features, reporting capabilities and ease-of-use.

Thermoteknix' TherMonitor Reporter is a fully featured thermal analysis and reporting package which includes thermal and visual images with direct integration into Microsoft Word for industry compatible reporting.

Thermoteknix' Condition Red is available in both stand-alone PC and integrated VisIR camera versions.

The Condition Red PC version supports all Flir Systems image file formats (past and present) including E, P, PM and B series cameras and provides image viewing and organising, temperature measurement and full analysis, reporting and extensive route planning and asset database all in one easy to use package.

The Condition Red VisIR camera version allows users to upload their surveys, baseline (reference) thermal and visual images, typical operating values and camera settings directly into Thermoteknix' VisIR Ti 200 thermal camera for on-the-spot inspection and comparison of plant asset conditions.

Reference thermal and visual images can be from VisIR or any Flir camera.

Uniquely, the Condition Red VisIR system saves operators time during inspections and gives image to image registration by overlaying a reference thermal image directly on top of the live IR image in the camera.

This ensures exact alignment at every inspection, even when performed by different thermographers and makes trending and comparisons routine and repeatable.

Additional data entry screens enable power, load or other user configurable parameters to be saved along with the thermal, visual images and sound bite.

Direct integration of thermal survey and data into the PC Condition Red database by USB or PC card gives effortless image and data asset organisation and archival.

Full trending, search and Microsoft Word template based reporting are included as well as incorporation of data from vibration and other PM modalities.
