IR camera sets thermography benchmarks

FLIR Systems has unveiled its latest handheld IR P660 camera with industry first technology designed to set new benchmarks for professional thermography.

The P660 — now available in Australia following a recent global launch – is packed with new features such as GPS, an innovative image processing tool, and remote control.

The P660 has been designed and developed for applications that need superior image quality, temperature measurement accuracy and better thermal image detail.

Its high resolution 640 x 480 pixel detector with a very high sensitivity of 45mK can make the difference between seeing or not seeing a thermal anomaly, especially when looking at small or distant targets.

The FLIR P660 is equipped with a full range of measurement functions and is packed with industry-first features.

Its integrated GPS adds value to maintenance in the utilities, energy, telecom, mining, facility management, logistics and other sectors that have to deal with inspection assets scattered over larger areas.

The GPS data is automatically stored with the infrared imagery, adding location information to inspection reports which guides inspection and field repair teams to the correct sites.

The P660 also features a Contrast Optimiser, a special algorithm that enhances details in contrast-rich infrared imagery and enables the user to view clearly both the scanned object and its surroundings.

An optional wireless remote control device steers all vital functions of the infrared as well as the visual camera from a safe distance so that the user can work safely in places that are difficult to access.

The FLIR P660 carries the Picture-in-Picture function which allows the user to overlay, pan, and scale an infrared image on the visual image. As all measurement data are retained, a full analysis of the combined images can be done.

FLIR’s Thermal Fusion functionality enhances the value of an infrared image by allowing the user to overlay it directly over the corresponding visible image in real-time.

The functionality combines the benefits of both the infrared image and visual picture at the push of a button. It allows for easier identification and interpretation of infrared images.

The FLIR P660 camera system includes a 3.2 megapixel visual camera, a large 5.6” colour LCD, tiltable viewfinder and a 3-hour battery, all in a rugged lightweight magnesium package that weighs less than cameras with a fraction of the resolution and performance features.

The camera system measures temperatures from -40°C to +500°C in its standard version with an optional measurement of up to +2000°C.
