  • Worldwide stonewool insulation market leader ­recommends FLIR thermal imaging cameras

    Insulation material manufacturer Rockwool has establishments all over the world and is considered by many to be the global market leader in the insulation business. Recently Rockwool Germany has started a thermography project, recommending FLIR thermal imaging cameras.

  • Thermal imaging cameras from FLIR help optimize low-cost housing solution

    As part of its many charity projects ArcelorMittal has developed steel based housing solutions for Romanian families in need. The houses needed to be simple, safe, decent, and above all: well insulated. That is where FLIR thermal imaging plays an important role. Research and development professionals at ArcelorMittal Liège Research used FLIR thermal imaging cameras to optimize the design of this housing solution.

  • Thanks to Thermal Imaging, "Erdinger Weissbräu" Ensures that Kegs Contain Wheat Beer and Nothing Else!

    A FLIR Systems ThermoVision™ A20-M camera now measures the temperature of every keg before it leaves the conveyor belt of the filling installation. If the infrared camera identifies a keg with a different temperature, it sets off an alarm and the conveyor belt is automatically halted. The keg is then manually removed.

  • Thermal Imaging Cameras in the Food Industry

    Thermal imaging cameras are such a tool. Using FLIR thermal imaging cameras, you can make automated non-contact temperature measurements in many food processing applications. Analog video outputs can be viewed on video monitors, and digital temperature data, including MPEG4 video outputs, can be routed to a computer via Ethernet.

  • FLIR Thermal Imaging Cameras Help Determine Road Conditions in Finland

    The roads in Finland comprise 78,141 kilometers of highways, paved roads and gravel roads. Monitoring and maintaining these roads can be challenging in a country where in the winter temperatures can drop to -40 °C and days become so short that the sun does not clear the horizon at all in some areas. It is therefore not surprising that Finnish road inspectors are always looking into new non-destructive testing technologies that can make their job easier and more effective.

  • FLIR Arms Intelligent Power Inspection Robot with "Hot Eye"

    A substation is a power facility for voltage change, acceptance and distribution of electric energy into a traditional power system. During substation operation, usually 95% of the information from inspections comes from visual observation. Although video monitoring is also often used to monitor substations, this technology cannot analyze the operational status of the target equipment, which leaves the possibility for safety issues.

  • Mill Ladle Refractory Monitoring

    FLIR thermal imaging camera systems are used to monitor ladles in real time and warn of a breakout before it happens, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars by preventing injuries, equipment damage, and production downtime.

  • Thermal Imaging Cameras for Flare Monitoring

    Thermal imaging cameras are an ideal monitoring tool, since they allow automated remote monitoring on a 24/7 basis in virtually any weather. In addition, thermal imaging cameras avoid many of the technical and cost-related problems associated with other technologies such as ultraviolet (UV) flame detectors, flame ionization spectrometers, thermocouples, and pyrometers.

  • Thermal Imaging Cameras for Warehouse Asset Protection

    Worldwide, warehouses are stocked with highly valuable goods. Protecting these goods against theft is of the utmost importance. But theft is not the only danger. An even greater danger is fire. Fire can destruct an entire warehouse within an extremely short timeframe. The value of the destroyed goods during a fire can be tremendous and the cost of a life that is lost during a fire is impossible to calculate. Statistics show high increase in assets loss due to fire although warehouses are equipped with fire alarms and fire fighting systems.

  • FLIR Thermal Imaging Cameras Help Prevent Fires in Waste Incineration Plants

    The whole cycle for the storage of waste, through sorting and recycling up to the effective conversion to electricity carries a high risk of fire or self-ignition, causing possible hazard for both personnel and the environment. To counter this, the Czech company Workswell has developed a complete thermal imaging solution, called Waste Bunker Monitor, designed for the continuous inspection of solid waste. For this solution, Workswell makes use of thermal imaging cameras from FLIR Systems.

  • Thermal Imaging Camera Keeps Fire Risk Under Control In Coal Pile Storage Site

    Coal storage in large coal piles brings with it the risk of spontaneous fires. As always, prevention is better than cure. A thermal imaging camera from FLIR Systems helps to ensure safety at the Nástup Mines Cooperation in Tusimice, Czech Republic. The system provides a cost-effective solution for continuous, remote monitoring of temperatures in the coal piles.

  • Thermal Imaging Cameras Help to Prevent Fires

    FLIR A-Series incorporated in the PYROsmart®system detects fires at a very early stage. Thermal imaging cameras are being used for a wide variety of applications. Thanks to their ability to measure temperatures in a non-contact mode, they can also easily be used for fire prevention.
