Optris, specialists in non-contact temperature measurement, have launched the OPTRIS PI 640 - the smallest measuring video graphics array (VGA) infrared camera, worldwide. With an optical resolution of 640x480 pixels, the PI 640 delivers pin-sharp radiometric pictures and videos in real time.
With a body sized 45x56x90 mm and weighing only 320 grams (lens included), the PI 640 counts among the most compact thermal imaging cameras on the market. It can be delivered with industrial thermal imager equipment and comes with an extensive license-free thermography software which enables users to monitor and document measurements and to edit infrared video imagery.
Key specifications of the PI 640 are its temperature range of between -20°C and 900°C, the spectral range of 7.5 to 13 µm and the frame rate of 32Hz.
The PI 640 high-resolution infrared camera finds application in industrial applications where pin-sharp infrared pictures and videos are essential for process monitoring and optimization.
The real-time thermographic images prove especially valuable for surveillance and quality assurance in the automotive sector, plastics, as well as semi-conductor and photovoltaic industries.
