Effective Thermal Imaging Inspection

FLIR Systems (Germany) thermal imaging has become an essential predictive maintenance and condition monitoring tool in the process industries. Its scope is extensive, spanning applications in electrical and mechanical inspection, energy management and building maintenance through to gas imaging. At this year’s Offshore Europe, the company will be showing new models in all application areas from entry level to the most sophisticated.

For the first time in this sector, visitors will be able to try out the new top of the range FLIR T-Series cameras that offer the highest thermal imaging resolution in their class. These professional range models are all about inspection efficiency and for quality versus price, they are unique.

Speedy operation, image quality and high measurement accuracy are essential for anyone involved in predictive maintenance. The FLIR T600 Series cameras have the sophistication needed to ensure a job well done and a quick return on investment. A single scan with these high resolution cameras can instantly reveal thermal anomalies that indicate problems. And this inspection can be conducted at a distance, keeping the engineer safely away from potential harm.

As well as offering its P600 Series, the ultimate thermal imaging camera range for the expert thermographer, FLIR Systems also provides the best value for money at entry level. Manufacturing volumes have allowed the company to cut the cost of the FLIR i5, for example, to £1330. This troubleshooting model is ideal for those wishing to get a feel for infrared technology.

FLIR Systems will be distributing two highly-informative guides on thermal imaging technology from its stand, the first covering gas detection and the second a 48-page book aimed at any would-be thermographer keen to deepen their knowledge of the subject.
