Unlimited Flexibility in Thermal Imaging with Zoom (Sprache: Englisch)

Small, Light, Radiomet­ric­ally Calib­rated

Heart of the infrared camera is the SWaP detector, a cooled focal-plane array photon detector with a format of (640 × 512) IR pixels, which operates in snap-shot mode. For the innovative XBn detector used, a smaller stirling cooler with lower power is sufficient due to the higher working temperature, which reduces the overall power consumption, dimensions and weight of the ImageIR® 6300 Z and significantly extends the maintenance-free service life. In addition, the zoom camera combines different focal lengths in one system and is radiometrically calibrated over the entire focal length range.

No Extensive Lens Change

The consistent use of the latest technologies in optics, detector and electronics is the basis for the remarkable user-friendliness of the camera series. The thermal imaging ImageIR® 6300 Z has a 7.5× zoom lens integrated as standard, which allows, in combination with the motorised focus, a fast and flexible adjustment to different object distances and sizes while maintaining stable image quality and high measurement accuracy.

Powerful Image Processing Elec­tronics

The ImageIR® 6300 Z has high-performance image processing electronics and can output the IR image data in real time to several video and data interfaces as well as record and evaluate it autonomously. This camera can also be operated via smartphone or tablet using its web interface. With these features and the possibility to power it from an external battery, this camera is ready for mobile outdoor use. The zoom camera can be easily integrated into existing system environments in a space-saving way. It is suitable for universal use in research and development, but also for integration into GIMBAL systems in the field of flight thermography.

Detect Smal­lest Temper­ature Differ­ences Using High Thermal Resol­u­tion of 30 mK

The thermal resolution of the ImageIR® infrared camera series allows you to measure smallest temperature differences of better than 0.03 K (at 30 °C). Thermal images with a narrow temperature span display details absolutely sharp. You will find interesting signatures even there where other infrared camera systems cannot detect any temperature differences any longer.

High-speed Mode to Increase Frame Rates and Thermal Resol­u­tion at the Same Time

If you want to analyze the thermal behavior of objects and processes from a wide variety of perspectives, you can use the high-speed mode for maximum flexibility. This function allows the camera to be used in two different operating modes. The standard mode suits best for depicting the smallest geometrical details. This allows users to record images with the native number of pixel of the camera detector. Switching to high-speed mode opens up the option of more than triple the frame rate, while the field of view (FOV) remains identical. This enables for most accurate time monitoring of fast processes. At the same time, the thermal resolution increases by a factor of 2 in high-speed mode, which additionally improves the analysis of temperature differences.

Integrated Software Development Kit

A new generation of electronics is entering the field of thermography, allowing an operating system to be embedded directly in the camera (embedded system). In addition to the well-known benefits of a Software Development Kit, the integrated SDK opens up numerous other possibilities for users:

  • Independent operation of the camera without PC

  • Automated control of camera functions with the aid of the integrated SDK

  • Implementation of evaluation algorithms and camera control based on these algorithms directly in the camera

These SDK functions make it possible to let the thermography camera run autonomously. If programmed appropriately, the camera no longer requires a permanent, stable network connection to a PC. This makes it ideal for use in hard-to-reach places and facilitates integration into and adaptation to existing systems.

The new integrated Software Development Kit was developed and optimised by InfraTec in collaboration with customers from industrial and research environments.
