The fresh line-up of T-Series cameras includes the updated T420 and T440 with 320×240 thermal resolution, and the feature-rich T620 and T640, both of which offer FLIR’s best handheld thermal detector resolution at 640×480 (307,200) pixels.

A major advantage is FLIR’s unique rotating optical block that lets users easily aim overhead, under equipment and from other tough angles while keeping the large LCD in comfortable view. To help reduce fatigue, all of the new T-Series cameras include Auto-Orientation which automatically keeps onscreen temperature measurement data upright for easier viewing whether the camera is framed for landscape or portrait imaging.

FLIR has simplified T-Series’ touchscreen tools, making it a breeze to access menus, add temperature measurement spot meters and area boxes, change colour palettes, set parameters, and switch imaging modes for example. The T620, and T640 feature a new capacitive touchscreen for navigation. And the keypad buttons on all of the latest models have been optimised to make it easier to activate the interface with gloves on.

Using the free FLIR Tools Mobile app, thermographers can import, analyse and share images and reports immediately directly from the inspection site. In addition, the app can stream live video to nearby devices for safer monitoring. Wireless connectivity also extends to FLIR MeterLink test instruments that can send readings directly to T-Series cameras via Bluetooth, automatically embedding electrical load and other critical data into radiometric thermal images as they’re captured.
