Flir launches latest generation advanced thermal imaging cameras
FLIR Systems is announcing three new Exx-Series advanced thermal imaging cameras for electrical, mechanical and building applications: the FLIR E75, E85, and E95. The redesigned, Wi-Fi-enabled Exx-Series features intelligent interchangeable lenses, laser-assisted autofocus modes and area measurement functionality, improvements to FLIR's patented MSX imaging technology, and a larger, more vibrant 4-inch touchscreen. These distinctive features, combined with better sensitivity and increased native resolution, will help professionals identify hot spots or other points of interest before potential problems become expensive repairs.
In redesigning the Exx-Series, Flir developed a new range of compact intelligent, interchangeable lenses that the camera automatically recognises and calibrates, thereby eliminating the need for manual calibration. The Exx-Series now also features laser distance measurement that assures precise autofocus to improve temperature measurement accuracy and, specifically for the Flir E85 and E95 models, provides the data for on-screen area measurement in square-feet or square-metres. In addition, the Flir E85 and E95 models offer increased thermal detector resolutions with up to 464x348 (161,472 pixels), and measure temperatures up to 1500degC.
In conjunction with Flir Tools, the Flir E75, E85, and E95 are the first Exx cameras to offer UltraMax, Flir's embedded, super-resolution process that improves effective resolution by four times - up to 645,888 pixels - and thermal sensitivity by up to 50 per cent. All models also feature significant improvement to Flir's MSX technology, which now utilises a 5-megapixel visual camera for improved image clarity and readability. These improvements, combined with a display that is 33 per cent brighter and 30 per cent larger than previous Exx models, yield more vibrant and detailed thermal imagery.
Rugged yet easy to use
Andy Teich, President and CEO at Flir says: "Redesigned from the handle up, the new series of Flir Exx cameras are a significant achievement in terms of advanced functionality, performance and ease of use in thermal cameras for electromechanical, plant and building inspections. With an ever-broadening base of users who demand thermal cameras that are compact, capable and easy to use, the advanced Exx cameras check every box."
The new Flir Exx is a powerful and non-invasive tool for ensuring all electromechanical elements involved in the production process are working optimally. As well as being suitable for electrical inspection, the camera can spot defective rollers on a conveyor, overheating motors and bearings, inspect moulds, detect tank levels and monitor thermal processes.
Flir's E75, E85, and E95 cameras will be available through established Flir distribution partners and the FLIR online store. Follow the link for more information about the new Exx-Series advanced thermal imaging cameras.
