Simultaneous imaging of objects over a wide temperature range
WATCH NOW! In this webinar, we discuss:
- The fundamentals of non-contact IR thermography
- The current challenges of using an IR camera to simultaneously measure wide temperature ranges
- … And we will present how the High Dynamic Range (HDR) technology from InfraTec perfectly addresses these
High sensitivity IR cameras with cooled detectors offer the possibility to remotely measure the temperature of an object with high accuracy, superb precision and fast speed. However, due to the nature of these instruments, it is necessary to incorporate a number of attenuating filters in front of the detector when measuring high temperatures (typically > 300 degrees Celsius). In addition to this, during the calibration process, the integration time must also be carefully optimised to provide the best results when operating in a particular (limited) temperature range. Both of these factors mean that those users wanting to measure dynamic (high speed) and high temperature processes simultaneously should be aware of the limitations of the ‘standard’ measurement scenario
However, the new High Dynamic Range (HDR) feature of the InfraTec ImageIR® camera series circumvents these limitations via the implementation of unique fast rotating filter wheel technology. This technology enables the continuous imaging of scenes with objects at vastly different temperatures – for example those from 10-1500 degrees Celsius. This internal fast rotating wheel can accommodate up to six independent filters – ensuring maximum flexibility for the most demanding measurement tasks. Furthermore, when used in combination with a 2nd 5-position filter wheel, one now has the opportunity to perform both dynamic (high speed) and high temperature spectral thermography measurements with ease
