The ImageIR series of cooled thermographic imaging cameras from the German thermography expert manufacturer Infratec represents the high-end thermal cameras for all types of industrial and R & D applications with high thermographic imaging quality.
Its modular architecture allows great versatility and thermal insulation to avoid affecting the environment:
- Module 1: lenses, optomechanics, filter and aperture wheels, shutter, focus motor, MicroScan
- Module 2: detector and cooling, data processing, electronics
- Module 3: communications (10GigE, GigE, CAMLink / DualCAMLink)
Some of these functions are available depending on models
