Infrared Solutions from InfraTec
The term FLIR stands for the abbreviation Forward Looking InfraRed. The abbreviation FLIR originated in the course of the further development of the infrared camera at the beginning of the 1960s. Originally a one-dimensional downward or sideways looking system on aircraft, it was then replaced by forward looking scanner cameras that no longer relied on movement of the carrier system for imaging.
Modern FLIR are equipped with different cooled and uncooled two-dimensional imaging detector systems that reproduce thermal images in the wavelength ranges of (2 ... 14) µm. This makes FLIR ideal for people and vehicle detection in government applications, other applications include industrial and construction thermography.
InfraTec's product range includes more than 30 thermal imaging camera models. The product range includes entry-level devices, professional and universal thermal imaging cameras, high-end solutions as well as industrial thermal imaging cameras and infrared imagers.

FLIR cameras are suitable for detecting infrared radiation in three main wavelength ranges: The short-wave, the mid-wave and the long-wave infrared.
InfraTec Spectral range
The short-wave infrared (SWIR) covers a wavelength range of (0.9 to 1.7) µm. For thermography, this range is useful for some high temperature applications. There are also SWIR ranges that allow long ranges for surveillance applications due to the low atmospheric attenuation.
The mid-infrared (MWIR) ranges from (1.5 to 8) μm. The spectral atmospheric absorption properties of water vapour and carbon dioxide still limit this range for outdoor applications to (2 to 5.5) µm, yet the entire MWIR range is interesting for spectral thermography of various materials. Among others, the infrared camera series ImageIR® developed by InfraTec is used for applications in this range. Models of this series have cooled focal plane array photon detectors with a native geometric resolution of up to (1,920 × 1,586) IR pixels. Solving measurement tasks over long distances is significantly more difficult in the MWIR.
Atmospheric influences play only a minor role in the long-wave infrared (LWIR) of (7 to 14) μm. Therefore, measurement tasks can be carried out over longer distances, even outdoors. LWIR is also a very good option for monitoring solutions that require continuous outdoor use. In this wavelength range, you can choose between FLIR systems that use cooled or uncooled detectors. The latter are usually smaller, lighter and cheaper than infrared cameras with cooled detectors. In addition to the stationary camera series ImageIR®, InfraTec also offers mobile and stationary microbolometer cameras of the VarioCAM® High Definition series.
