Infrared camera series
VarioCAM ^® hr head 700

Precision calibration for independence of environmental factors

The VarioCAM ^® high resolution head 700 series is calibrated at higheststandards using more than only a few calibration curves. Besides, the integrated high-speed shutter cares for an internal calibration if needed. Fast changes of the operating temperature of the infrared camera therefore will have no effect on the measurement at all.

Highest geometrical resolution of (1,280 x 960) pixels for measuring even smallest details

Infrared detector technologies still suffer from much lower pixel number compared with digital cameras in the visual range. This means like in the old days of digital camera that every pixel counts. The infrared camera series VarioCAM ^® high resolution head 700 does not only provide (640 x 480) infrared pixels but even (1,280 x 960) infrared pixels (1.23 megapixels). This is achieved by the unique Microscanning Technology that is based on a highly precise opto-mechanical interface which easily guarantees a quadruplication of pixel numbers. Even though this process is more than simple interpolation. It really provides customers with more measurement data and thereby securing higher measurement precision. Therewith, the VarioCAM ^® high resolution head 700 series guarantees to avoid measuring mistakes resulting from average values of low pixel numbers.

Real-time radiometric data transfer to computer with 60 Hz

All models of the VarioCAM ^® high resolution head 700 series already come with a connection mode inbetween camera and computer via FireWire (IEEE1394) for remote control and for viewing and saving thermal digital videos on your computer. In addition, radiometric data can be stored on your computer with 60 Hz which allows a comprehensive online and ex post analysis for these rapid sequences.

Excellent thermal resolution of 30 mK for detecting smallest faults

The thermal resolution of the VarioCAM ^® high resolution head 700 series indicating the smallest temperature differences being resolvable is as small as 30 mK (0.030 °C) at some
30 °C. Smallest temperature spans will still show details in great sharpness. Customers will be able to detect faults where other infrared camera systems will not measure anything and faults can already be seen at an earlier stage.

Dynamic range of 16 bit for detailed signal differentiation

Having an excellent detector and lens is a sound basis for a precise measurement of a infrared camera. Still the data need to be transferred into electrical signals. The VarioCAM ^® high resolution head 700 series can digitize the signals with a dynamic range of 16 bit - 65,536 small temperature steps in each of the measurement ranges. This is 49,152 steps more than with conventional 14 bit camera systems which of course will result in a much clearer measurement result.

Standard temperature measuring range of -40°C to 1,200°C for precision in measurement

The VarioCAM ^® high resolution head 700 series allows for secure measurements from (-40 up to 1,200) °C. Especially the lower temperature measurement capability indicates the excellence of the infrared camera as even lowest infrared signals will still be transferred into a significant thermal image. Even though lower and higher temperatures might not be needed for all applications the ability of being able to measure them greatly enhances the flexibility of the user.
