Observe Temperature Variations with the FLIR Thermal Imaging Camera

Thermal imaging cameras allow technicians and engineers to troubleshoot and identify troublesome issues. While you can feel hot and cold, unless it’s glowing red or covered in ice crystals, you can’t visualize those temperature extremes with the naked eye.

DATAQ Instruments now offers the FLIR One Pro thermal imaging camera, allowing you to detect heat (or cold) sources. Even small changes in temperature are easily discernible using the FLIR imaging camera and application.

Simply placing your hand on some surface (e.g. a wall or table) leaves behind a distinct thermal signature (as shown below).

Based on the same principles, the FLIR thermal imaging camera is useful in any number of industrial maintenance and troubleshooting applications.

Due to increased friction, poorly lubricated or worn bearings also produce a recognizable heat signatures when observed using a thermal imaging camera (as shown below).

When performing electrical inspections, poor connections and overloaded circuits become immediately evident.

In the example below, a loose connection on the top wire could cause dangerous heating or fire inside of an electrical distribution box.

Easy Installation and Use

The FLIR One Pro plugs right into the Lightening or USB-C connector on the bottom of your contemporary smart device. Using the FLIR ONE app, you can display and record thermal data. Download the FLIR ONE app from the Apple Store (Apple users) or the Google Play Store (Android users).
