A new range of multipurpose, high-definition infrared thermal imagers has been recently introduced by NEC Avio Infrared Technologies Co. Ltd., to their InfRec family.
Available from Applied Infrared Sensing , InfRec R300 infrared thermal imagers are designed for R&D, predictive and preventive maintenance as well as quality control among other applications.
InfRec R300 infrared thermal imagers feature an advanced technology Japanese-made detector and offer superior performance characteristics such as temperature resolution of 0.05ºC, accuracy within ±1ºC and spatial resolution of 1.2mrad.
Additionally, the infrared thermal imagers are available optionally in a higher temperature range along with optional lenses to meet different requirements in test and measurement applications.
InfRec R300 displays reliable performance in R&D of electric components or machineries and biological objects, quality control at manufacturing plants, building inspection as well as preventive maintenance of power equipment and electric facilities.
