The Teledyne FLIR T56014 Professional Thermal Imaging Camera with MSX, UltraMax, and Thermal Studio Pro, 14° Lens, 640 x 480, -4° to 2732°F, 30 Hz has the resolution and advanced features needed for professionals to troubleshoot hot spots, find hidden faults, and confirm repairs to power generation, electrical transmission and distribution, and manufacturing equipment. These ergonomic handheld cameras have a 180° rotating lens platform and bright 4 in. LCD to help inspectors easily and comfortably diagnose electrical or mechanical issues, even in hard-to-reach areas. Advanced on-camera measurement tools such as 1-Touch Level/Span, plus laser-assisted autofocus, ensure accurate temperature measurement recording every time. Add the Teledyne FLIR Inspection Route camera option to download survey plans from Teledyne FLIR Thermal Studio Pro* and run them on the T560-14 camera.

MSX Technology

Multi-Spectral Dynamic Imaging (MSX) Technology adds visible spectrum definition to IR images by detecting the edges of objects. Text becomes clearly visible so that users can read a label or identifier within the IR image. This exclusive function provides extraordinary thermal detail that instantly highlights and orients problem locations and eliminates the need to refer back to a visual image for detail.

UltraMax Technology

UltraMax is an image enhancement technology in the T560 that captures a series of thermal images and combines the data into one new image. The result is an impressive quadrupling of thermal pixels, including full radiometric measurement data.

As a result, UltraMax thermal images will be clearer and larger, allowing for a better analysis of small details. Because of an increased number of pixels covering the same target area, UltraMax also decreases measurement spot size. This gives greater measurement accuracy to particularly small details. With the new UltraMax feature, users can obtain even better results, allowing them to be even more productive.

UltraMax is a type of superresolution, a technique for combining the information from multiple original images into an image with higher resolution and less noise. This might seem similar to two other scaling techniques - interpolation and pixel averaging. However, they are totally different.

UltraMax uses the natural movement of the human body to capture an image set in which each image is slightly offset from the others. This results in a wealth of data that is much greater than any one image could provide. The data is combined to form an image that includes many more pixels of the target, resulting in a resolution greater than that of the original camera detector. The data is also used to create a clearer image, since pixel noise can be reduced through comparing similar points in multiple images.

Teledyne FLIR UltraMax captures 16 thermal images in less than one second. These are stored on the camera as a single jpg file, and will appear as one image when viewed on the camera or in software. The enhanced image will have twice the original resolution and four times as many pixels. All pixels still include radiometric data, just as with normal Teledyne FLIR thermal images.

As a result, UltraMax thermal images will be clearer and larger, allowing better analysis of small details. Because of an increased number of pixels covering the same target area, UltraMax also decreases measurement spot size. This gives greater measurement accuracy to particularly small details.

The Teledyne FLIR Thermal Studio Pro Advanced Thermal Image Analysis and Reporting Software is state-of-the-art analysis and reporting software designed to help users manage thousands of thermal images and videos. Whether users use handheld cameras, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), or optical gas imaging (OGI) cameras, Teledyne FLIR Thermal Studio Pro provides the automation and advanced processing capabilities that users need to streamline workflow and increase productivity. This advanced software has an optional FLIR Route Creator plug-in that creates an inspection path users can download directly to any FLIR T-Series camera that has Inspection Route enabled. Use these routes to acquire temperature data and thermal images in a logical sequence, automate data management, and maintain historical records for improved predictive maintenance. Available in more than 20 languages, FLIR Thermal Studio Pro offers simplified image processing so users can spend more time in the field and less time at their desk.
