April 3, 2002—FLIR Systems Inc., a designer and manufacturer of infrared camera systems, has launched seven new handheld infrared camera models.
Four of the product models are part of the new “E-Series” line of thermography cameras that are smaller, lighter, and less expensive than any thermal imaging camera in the market today. The cameras, which resemble a flashlight in appearance, weigh only 1.5 pounds and feature a built-in color display, long-life battery, temperature measurement, and image storage capabilities. The new cameras also enable images to be downloaded to a computer through its USB port connection used by consumer video cameras.
The remaining three models were introduced as part of the “P-Series” line, which are designed for the professional thermographer. These new cameras offer significantly enhanced sensitivity, improved data connectivity, automatic report generation, auto focus, and an innovative new product design that incorporates a detachable color LCD display.
According to the company, the capability and pricing of these new cameras will make them important tools for a variety of new users, including facilities managers, veterinarians, electricians, and security personnel.
