News Release from FLIR COMMERCIAL SYSTEMS
Heading: FLIR T335 camera for a wider professional IR audience
Copy: FLIR the worlds largest manufacturer of infrared cameras has
released the T335 a high performance camera designed to tackle the demands
of professional consultants and thermographers working in industrial, plant and
utility markets.
Available at a very competitive price, the T335 makes high-end IR accessible
and available to professionals responsible for building, electrical, mechanical
inspections and preventative maintenance and includes many features previously
available on more expensive FLIR models.
The latest member of the FLIR T-Series of powerful, simple-to-use and durable
IR cameras, T335 has a 320 x 240 focal plane array detector (76,800 pixels).
The T335 includes both an IR and digital camera, Picture in Picture Fusion (PiP),
touch-screen and interchangeable optics.
Roger Christiansz, General Manager, FLIR Australia: T335 stands out from the
competition with a cost effective combination of versatile and sophisticated
features found only on FLIR cameras. For quick, highly detailed diagnostics in
industrial applications, the T335 matches 2 % thermal accuracy and < 0.05 ºC
thermal sensitivity (NETD) with a wider temperature measurement range of - 20
ºC to 650 ºC.
To tailor temperature readings to a user's specific needs, the new camera offers
measurement modes over and above centre-spot readings, 5 spotmeters, 5 box
areas, isotherm colour alarms and automatic hot/cold spot. Text annotation
connects voice comments with images, even on reports, he said.
The T335 comes with FLIR's laser LocatIR pointer, allowing the user to pinpoint a
hotspot on a component and record that spot on the IR image. FLIR's scalable
PiP Fusion also makes it possible for technicians to superimpose a scalable
thermal image over a digital photo for added emphasis of temperature
abnormalities.
It also offers FLIRs patented radiometric JPEG format which simplifies image
management with a single image for both analysis and sharing in emails and
Word documents.
The camera also exists in a version adapted for building applications.
About infrared thermography
Thermal imaging, also called thermography, is the production of non-contact
infrared pictures from which temperature measurements can be made. Portable
infrared cameras scan equipment and structures, then instantly convert the
thermal images to pictures for monitoring or quantitative temperature analysis.
Thermography has evolved into one of the most valuable diagnostic tools for
Predictive Maintenance. It increases efficiency and maximizes safety in many
industrial environments including electrical generating and manufacturing
facilities.
