What is IR?


A Little Theory…

What is infrared radiation?

Defined by Wikipedia as…

Infrared (IR) is electromagnetic radiation with longer wavelengths than those of visible light, extending from the nominal red edge of the visible spectrum at 700 nanometers (nm) to 1 mm.

What?!?!?!?


What is Thermal Imaging? It is the process of turning Infrared Radiation into a usable “picture”.

Temperature? Who needs temperature measurement?


Do You Need Temperature Measurement?


Thermal Imaging

Allows you to see things in a different light.


How does it work?

Electromagnetic Wave

Similar to Visible Light but longer Wavelength

Follows the same laws of Physics as other EMW

IR is emitted by all objects

Generated by the vibration of Molecules

IR radiation increases with temperature

FLIR cameras calculate accurate temperatures

What about Building Diagnostics?


Simple definition…

Infrared cameras see surface hot and cold

In this case – the moisture behind the dry wall has created a cooler temperature on the surface of the dry wall.


Did the infrared camera “see” the moisture?

Did it see through the wall?

No – infrared cameras only see surface temperature!!

Then how did Infrared work in this situation?


Amazing Sensitivity

Why do we want to see heat anomalies?

FLIR Optical Gas Imaging


What is Optical Gas Imaging?


How is a GF camera different?

How Does the GF Series “see” Gas? • The camera employs a spectral filter designed to transmit in a region of the IR spectrum that is

coincident in wavelength with vibrational/rotational energy transitions of VOC molecular bonds.

• These transitions are typically strongly coupled to the field via dipole moment changes in the molecule, and are common to many types of gases and vapors.

• With this in mind, the camera’s detection sensitivity to a wide variety of gases and vapors is extremely small.

• Thermally, the camera’s sensitivity is <30mK when FLIR’s adaptive temporal filter is engaged.

How Does the GF Series “see” Gas? • We “match” the spectral

response of the camera to the “peak” spectral absorption of the gas!

Why Optical Gas Imaging? Pin the tail ……


FLIR’s Optical Gas Imaging Lineup GF300/320

FLIR GF320 thermal camera is a preventative maintenance solution to spot hydrocarbon gas leaks in piping, flanges and connections in petrochemical operations.

GF304

The FLIR GF304 detects refrigerant gas leaks without interrupting or shutting down operations in food production, storage and retail; pharmaceutical; automotive; and air conditioning.

GF306

FLIR GF306 thermal cameras detect and visualize SF6, ammonia and 25 other harmful gases quickly from a safe distance and without the need to interrupt plant production processes.

refrigerant

SF6, ammonia


FLIR’s Optical Gas Imaging Lineup GF309

These cameras are ideal for monitoring all types of furnaces, heaters and boilers, particularly in the chemical, petrochemical and utility industries.

GF343

Spot CO2 leaks quickly, easily, and from a safe distance with FLIR GF343. Fast and accurate detection of CO2 leaks can be vital to safe, efficient operations with minimal down time.

GF346

FLIR GF346 infrared cameras are capable of finding carbon monoxide and a number of other gases, and unbeatable for detecting even the smallest gas leaks.
