High-resolution thermal camera for small targets/long distances

Flir Systems is launching the Flir T840, a new addition to the high-performance T-Series family of thermal imaging cameras. The high-resolution Flir T840 offers a brighter display and an integrated viewfinder to help plant managers, electrical utility and other thermography professionals find and diagnose failing components in any lighting conditions to help avoid costly power outages and plant shutdowns.

Featuring the award-winning design of the Flir T-series camera platform, the Flir T840 benefits from an ergonomic body, a vibrant LCD touchscreen, and a viewfinder to make it easy to use in any lighting conditions. The 464x348-resolution camera incorporates Flir advanced Vision Processing, including patented MSX image enhancement technology, UltraMax and proprietary adaptive filtering algorithms to provide customers with enhanced measurement accuracy and image clarity, with just half the image noise of previous models.

In addition, the Flir T840 offers an optional six-degree lens that enables users to capture accurate temperature measurements on small targets at far distances, such as connectors on overhead distribution lines. Also, advanced, on-camera measurement tools unique to newer Flir T-Series models - such as one-touch Level/Span and precise, laser-assisted autofocus - enable users of the Flir T840 to find problems quickly and make critical decisions easily.

With a 180-degree rotating lens, the Flir T840's ergonomic design helps users reduce the strain of full-day inspections and diagnose hard-to-reach components at substations and on distribution lines. The Flir T840 offers rapid reporting features that help users stay organized in the field. Wi-Fi streaming to the Flir Tools app makes it simple to survey issues in real time, while in-camera GPS automatically tags image files with location data to simplify identification and precise documentation.

The Flir T840 camera is now available for purchase through established Flir distribution partners. For more information about the Flir T840 go to www.flir.com/t840.
