Control Your Infrared Camera or Your Processes

You can include a trigger interface in your infrared camera of the ImageIR® 5300 series, which allows you to clock external processes or devices with the frequency of the camera or vice versa. Thereby, a synchronous operation is guaranteed, e.g. of various measurement devices.

As the infrared camera systems of the ImageIR® 5300 series come with a snapshot detector, it is also possible to trigger the acquisition of thermal images by an external clock. Both trigger directions are optimally supported by the products of the thermographic software family IRBIS® 3, which also takes care of an easy handling of the settings.

Acquire Thermal Images in a Milli­second Time

The exact and fast control of the detectors of the ImageIR® 5300 infrared camera series provides the possibility to acquire and analyse thermal images at a time scale of milliseconds. Thereby, it allows an easy analysis of fast processes regarding their thermal changes. Thermal images can be stored at a frame rate of up to 12 kHz and provide insights into thermal changes of fast-running processes.

Easily Transfer Your Radiometric Data to the Computer

You will be able to work with both radiation proportional data formats and also directly with temperature data in °C or °F. You will receive the data by setting your specific parameters in the easy handling acquisition interface of the ImageIR® 5300 series at a frame rate of up to 12 kHz.

Measure Correctly with an Accuracy of +/- ​1%

If your measurement object has a temperature of 18.7 °C, you will always measure 18.7 °C, and exactly this is taken care of by the infrared camera systems of the ImageIR® 5300 series. You can rely on a correct thermographic measurement with an accuracy of +/- 1%

Make Use of Spec­tral Filters for Material Specific Meas­ure­ments

Material-specific emissivity and transmissivity properties have to be taken into account while measuring with infrared camera systems. The integration of spectral filters makes use of those specifics for special measurements. For example, spectral ranges of thin PE foils can be excluded in case they are highly transmissive or transparent. Like this, only the radiation will be measured, which is purely emitted by the foil itself.

Based on its long experience in thermography, InfraTec can support you in selecting the right spectral filter. The infrared camera systems of the ImageIR® series can integrate a remotely controllable filter wheel, which can hold up to four spectral filters. The filter position close to the detector can avoid warm aperture effects and allows for the usage of smaller and thereby cheaper filters in the infrared camera.

Extend Your Temper­ature Meas­ure­ment Range with an Auto­matic Aper­ture Setting

The temperature measurement range of the ImageIR® infrared camera series can be widened by an integrated aperture wheel. The motorised aperture wheel can be controlled by the camera control itself. Working with calibrated measurement ranges, the appropriate aperture will even be automatically set in the infrared camera. When filter and aperture wheels are separately integrated, the ImageIR® camera series will be especially flexible in handling specific measurement situations.

Detect Smal­lest Temper­ature Differ­ences Using High Thermal Resol­u­tion of 20 mK

The thermal resolution of the ImageIR® infrared camera series allows you to measure the smallest temperature differences of (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.

Highest Homo­gen­eity will Provide You with a Bril­liant Picture

An infrared camera out of the ImageIR® 5300 series offers the highest homogeneity by combining cooled detector technology of the latest generation with other high-precision components. Precise measurements, therefore, will not be influenced by any fixed pattern, and thermal images will be absolutely clear.

Take Advantage of the Modular Concept for Your Flex­ib­ility

The closed, industrial-suited, high-strength aluminium alloy housing is very compact and protects the sensitive sensors and electronics even during the roughest applications. It impresses with its low weight. The modular design allows for an application-specific configuration and later adaptation to varying demands. The interfaces are equipped with push-on connectors to uphold the degree of protection.

Multi Integration Time

Temperature Measurements Across Multiple Calibration Ranges

This function allows continuous temperature measurements to be carried out with constant aperture and filter settings, covering more than one calibration range.

Solid Immer­sion Lens (SIL) for ImageIR®

In order to make particularly small structures clearly visible, an infrared camera with a large detector format is suitable. In some cases, special measurement and testing tasks require a further increase in spatial resolution. In the field of micro-thermography, high-performance infrared microscopic lenses are used for this purpose.

Their benefits can be further increased in conjunction with Solid Immersion Lenses (SIL). Mounted on the optics, these immersion media significantly improve the resolution of even the smallest structures in the µm range.

Further Functions

Multispectral Feature

The multispectral feature makes it possible to record sequences with constantly changing spectral filters. Images are recorded synchronously with a rapidly rotating filter wheel equipped with the filters. It may be possible to switch between up to seven filters, depending on the version.

Due to this, the multispectral measurement can be optimised to suit the measuring task if the preset ranges are unsuitable. The integration times can be adapted within the limits calibrated for this filter.

Trigger Interface

Interface for Incoming and Outgoing Control Signals

Trigger signals to or from the camera can be used to control and synchronise image data acquisition. Thermographic measurements can also be used to control processes.
