Flir Systems has increased its ThermaCAM T-Series to introduce two new models to the range, providing extended choice. The expanded T-Series will effectively supersede the E-Series, ensuring that industry has access to the most up-to-date camera technology with multiple added value features that make the job easier to do and quicker to complete.
The winner of the prestigious Red Dot design award, the Flir T-Series cameras are prized for their ease of use, value for money and excellent ergonomics. Standard features include tiltable lens unit, visual camera, image fusion and touch screen with stylus. They have a wide choice of measurement functions including spotmeter, areabox and high/low temperature isotherms; the T400 also has delta T.
The image quality on the original T-Series was already high but now it’s even better. The top of the range T400 launched last year now has a thermal sensitivity of 50 mK NETD. With its 25µm pitch, this new generation detector allows better performance from a camera that is smaller and lighter than its competitors; this camera weighs just 880g.
The two new entry-level model additions are the T200 and the T250 with a 200 x 150 IR resolution and sensitivity of <100mK and <80mK respectively. Both have 2 x digital zoom, 9Hz frame refresh and the picture-in-picture function. This allows the overlay, pan and scale of an infrared image on a visual image and full analysis of the combined images from retained measurement data.
On the higher-end models this new feature is both scalable and moveable. It complements the more advanced Thermal Fusion feature that allows the automatic and seamless transition of images from thermal to visual in real time.
The T-Series was the first ever thermal imaging camera to have a large 3.5 inch touch screen with stylus. This feature greatly improves access to the software menu and extends communication and storage functionality. All additional information, such as screen sketches and voice annotations - features unique to the T250 and T400 - are stored with the IR image, eliminating the need for separate pen, paper and voice recorder.
All T-Series cameras have a temperature measurement range of -20°C to 350°C with option up to 1200°C on the T360 and T400. Dust- and water splash proof and shock resistant, they are all battery powered for up to four hours of uninterrupted use. The complete kit comprises camera, carrying case, power supply, cabling, battery charger, LCD screen sunshield and battery.
As standard, the T-Series is supplied with ThermaCAM Quickreport software in PDF format and SD card. The range is compatible with the very latest Reporter software, a wizard-based reporting suite with advanced image processing and temperature calculation functions.
