As pioneers in the IR industry, FLIR Systems has a long list of ‘firsts’ in the world
of infrared thermography:
■
1965: 1st thermal imaging system for predictive maintenance (Model 650).
■
1973: 1st battery-operated portable IR scanner for industrial applications pre-
dictive maintenance (Model 750).
■
1975: 1st TV compatible system (Model 525).
■
1978: 1st dual-wavelength scanning system capable of real-time analog
recording of thermal events (Model 780). Instrumental in R & D market develop-
ment.
■
1983: 1st thermal imaging and measurement system with on-screen temperature
measurement.
■
1986: 1st TE (thermo-electrically) cooled system.
■
1989: 1st single-piece infrared camera system for PM (predictive maintenance)
and R & D (research & development) with on-board digital storage.
■
1991: 1st Windows-based thermographic analysis and reporting system.
■
1993: 1st Focal Plane Array (FPA) system for PM and R & D applications.
■
1995: 1st full-featured camcorder style FPA infrared system (ThermaCAM).
■
1997: 1st: uncooled microbolometer-based PM/R & D system.
■
2000: 1st thermography system with both thermal and visual imaging.
■
2000: 1st thermography system to incorporate thermal/visual/voice and text
data logging.
■
2002: 1st automated thermography system (model P60) to feature detachable
remotely controllable LCD, JPEG image storage, enhanced connectivity including
USB and IrDA wireless, thermal/visual/voice and text data logging.
■
2002: 1st low-cost ultra-compact hand-held thermography camera (E series).
Revolutionary, ergonomic design, lightest IR measurement camera available.
