Infrared Imaging Camera

Since all the cameras, not depending on resolution, are infrared, it is clear that the infrared images can be received after the application. It may happen, though, that the real image is also needed and that is another point to consider. If there is a possibility that the user happens to get such measuring tasks when the real image might be necessary for their performance and facilitation, then it is recommended to consider the selection of the infrared imaging camera providing the function of taking the real image in addition to the infrared one.

Exactly, like in the case with the resolution, this point must be carefully thought over. Depending on where and how the camera is likely to be used, to choice should be made either for the stationary device that can be used as mobile sometimes, or for the mobile only. If the mobile is not designed for being a stationary device and one day such need may occur, then it may make more sense to acquire the stationary device if not, then, why to sue the deice for the purposes it has not been created for.

Stationary application often means installation of the devices there where the user cannot easily reach. Due to the peculiarity of the design, the camera can be fixed there, though, without problems and the information and measuring process can be viewed on the computer, due to the USB connection, Internet or other network possible. For all those who need online or live monitoring, stationary devices are the best choice. Without being directly close to the measuring point, there is a possibility to keep it under control and check any time. The measurement with the mobile devices implies the presence of the user, of course, and though, the data can be stored, they can be processed later, but not transmitted immediately.

So, it is not always the size that determines stationary and handheld device, but the possibilities and functions that the device performs.

We realize that even in spite of the description, it may quite a challenge to make a choice and be sure about it, that is why we gladly offer our assistance. Should any question occur, do not hesitate to contact the service team and get a consultation concerning the possibilities of this or another model of the infrared imaging camera.

To better understand what the infrared imaging is it is necessary to understand what the camera makes. In fact – the camera manages to show the user what an eye cannot see. There is certain amount of heat that the object emits, and to know how much of the heat is present is important because of the number of reasons, is though impossible without the help of the camera.

No direct contact is necessary, but with the help of the IF imaging camera it is possible to get the whole picture of a certain object, building or even area from the point of view of the temperature situation around.

The visual inspection is very often not enough to evaluate the quality of the insulation in the house, or of the windows in the building, to locate the problems exactly in the components of the equipment and machines. Due to the infrared images, it becomes obvious where too much heat comes out, and where exactly the problem may be. It saves an incredible amount of time, since the problem can be quickly and precisely eliminated.

The images received from the imagine camera may also be a good demonstration of a perfect quality after the work, for example, installation or renovation, has been finished. It is convincing and due to the color thermogram, even not a professional can see the differences in colors (which stand for thermal radiation) around the same objects, and understand whether there are some problematic spots, for example, around the doors, in the walls, windows.

When the house is new, there are some many places that may hide problems, but still be not obvious: cracks, poor insulation, lack of tightness, excessive humidity, residual moisture, HVAC problems, roof, junctions between the parts of the house and many others. IF imagine camera may give a very quick and clear picture of the actual state of things, which may be very helpful, since saves a lot of stress and follow-up costs, when the unnoticed, but existing problems grow into much serious.

Application of the camera in the house that has been inhabited for a while, also makes perfect sense, since it helps to locate the small problematic spots that develop over a certain time and may cause serious heat loss without being obvious to the owner, which means extra costs, for example, for heating. Elimination of these problems also brings a desirable level of comfort.

Another popular application field for the IF imagine cameras is the public place: it may be market, shopping-mall, airport. Huge amount of people, with very dense presence over longer times may cause diseases outbreaks and accelerate the spread of infection tremendously. Fever is an increase of the body temperature and that is why it can be easily detected by the IF camera. Application of this measure has a very positive effect, since it help to protect the masses of people from the risks of getting an infection and viruses during their trips or presence in one of the public places.

Of course, higher temperatures not necessarily mean a dangerous disease (it may be overheating, sunstroke, consumption of alcohol, natural peculiarity of the organism), but it is a measure of precaution, and that is why it is so popular, especially at the huge airports in many countries around the world.

If imagine cameras react to the heat coming from the object and that is why it is so convenient to use them under poor lighting conditions. He brightness of the object depends not on the illumination, but on the temperature and that is why the hotter the object is, the brighter it will be in the picture, even if there light was not good enough at the moment the image was taken.

In the range of the PCE products thermal infrared imagine cameras for different measuring tasks are presented. PCE-TC series includes the cameras with the software. It means that the user himself can adjust the camera with eth help of the temperature calibrator, which means set a certain limit, and check how accurate the measurement is. Due to the functioning software, any excess of the preset limit will be accompanied by the visual alarm, sent to the PC. These cameras are able to provide both, thermal and visual images. When applying it to people, the clear thermal image of the person may be obtained. Of course, the cameras of this level are meant for particular checks and tasks, for example, in the military sector.

Infrared imaging cameras have become an absolutely new word in the vocabulary of the technological world. So many tasks have become feasible and so many procedures have been facilitated. Application of the correct device for the measuring task is a pledge of success; that is why it is important to consider all the possibilities of application, maybe even thinking ahead and predicting the future possible applications.

Construction, maintenance, repairs, numerous inspections, tests and checks of the most hidden places, detection of faults, weak points, application with the healthcare purposes – all these and many other application areas are in the list of the tasks that infrared imagine camera copes with.

After considering all the parameters and maybe getting an advice from the professional consultant, the purchasing of this modern technical device is an absolutely right decision that the user will not regret of.
