Flir T-Series Handheld Thermography Cameras

Designed to help streamline thermal inspections for intensive electrical, mechanical and utility predictive maintenance programs, the T-Series range of handheld thermography cameras includes the updated T420 and T440 with 320 x 240 thermal resolution, and the T620 and T640, both of which provide thermal resolution at 640 x 480 (307,200) pixels. Every model includes FLIR’s patented MSX enhancement that highlights thermal images with key visible details in real time for easier recognition.

The cameras provide flexible ergonomics, fast communication from the field and a holistic thermal imaging solution. A major advantage is FLIR’s 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 even more, all of the T-Series cameras include Auto-Orientation, which automatically keeps on-screen temperature measurement data upright for easier viewing whether the camera is framed for landscape or portrait imaging.

The T-Series features touch-screen tools 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 capacitive touch screen for navigation and the keypad buttons on all of the models have been optimised to make it easier to activate the interface with gloves on.

These advancements complement other benefits that FLIR T-Series cameras already have, including fast Wi-Fi communication that connects cameras to Apple and Android devices. 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.
