FLIR Systems has launched the X6580sc thermal imaging camera as a solution for researchers and scientists that require ultra-fast frame rate acquisition of extremely dynamic thermal events.
The X6580sc camera combines high speed and high resolution with ease of use and the flexibility to be configured for scientific or research applications.
It includes high performance features of the FLIR X6500sc series, such as high thermal sensitivity, snapshot imagery, motorised spectral filter wheel and a detachable touchscreen LCD.
The camera connects to FLIR’s ResearchIR Max 3 R&D software to provide the ultimate in for thermal imaging data acquisition, analysis, and reporting capabilities.
Features overview:
- High-speed 640x512 digital InSb detector with broadband (1.5-5.5µm) spectral sensitivity and F/3 aperture.
- Provides images up to 350Hz in full frame and up to 4500 Hz in a 320x8 sub-windowing mode.
- Can be temperature calibrated up to 300°C, or up to 3000°C with spectral and/or neutral density filters.
- Measurement accuracy of /-1°C for standard configurations ensures top quality results.
The X6580sc is compatible with all the existing FLIR X6500sc mid-infrared USL motorised lenses. It can be equipped with an M80/Janos front panel to enable integration with existing or custom lenses.
Nigel Peart, FLIR sales manager (Northern Europe) for R&D / Science products, said: “The X6580sc sets a new benchmark for researchers involved with high-speed R&D/Science applications such as material impact shock testing and fast thermal events like exothermal chemical reactions as well as Infrared Signature (Range Test Lab) applications.”
