FLIR: The world leader in thermal imaging cameras FLIR is the world leader in the design, manufacturing and marketing of thermal imaging systems for a wide variety of commercial, industrial and government applications. Rapidly emerging markets and organisation Interest for thermal imaging has grown considerably over the last few years in a large variety of markets. FLIR thermal imaging systems use state-of-the-art infrared imaging technology that detects infrared radiation - or heat. Based on detected temperature differences, thermal imaging cameras can create a crisp image. Complicated...

INFRARED: more than meets the eye Infrared - part of the electromagnetic spectrum Our eyes are detectors that are designed to detect visible light (or visible radiation). There are other forms of light (or radiation) that we cannot see. The human eye can only see a very small part of the electromagnetic spectrum. At one end of the spectrum we cannot see ultraviolet light, while at the other end our eyes cannot see infrared. Infrared radiation lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The primary source of infrared radiation is heat or thermal...

Why use thermal imaging cameras? Why would you choose a FLIR thermal imaging camera? There are other technologies available to help you measure temperatures in a non-contact mode. Infrared thermometers for example. Infrared thermometers vs thermal imaging cameras Infrared (IR) thermometers are reliable and very useful for single-spot temperature readings. But when scanning large areas or components, it’s easy to miss a critical spot. A FLIR thermal imaging camera can scan entire areas or components at once - never missing any overheating hazards, no matter how small. Use thousands of...

Thermal imaging cameras for R&D applications In Research and Development applications, accuracy, reliability, sensitivity and high performance are vitally important. That’s why FLIR thermal imaging cameras are widely used around the world for applications as diverse as microelectronics, paper processing, automotive, plastics, assessment of materials, target heat signatures, mechanical testing, R&D and much more. FLIR’s thermal imaging cameras are used for capturing and recording thermal distribution and variations in real-time, allowing engineers and researchers to see and accurately...

The advantages of infrared thermography for R&D applications • • • • • • Gives a full, real-time thermal pattern of the situation Is contactless, non-destructive and non-intrusive Identifies and locates thermal anomalies Stores thermal information Allows for detailed analysis Addresses numerous applications Heat patterns are very difficult to predict. This means that it is not always possible to know where to attach the thermocouples necessary to make accurate measurements and effectively evaluate heat dissipation. Furthermore, since the thermocouple needs to be in contact with the...
