High Resolution, Plug & Play Infrared Camera for Machine Vision
The FLIR A320 Infrared Camera is an affordable and accurate solution
for machine vision and automation systems that require non-contact
imaging and temperature measurements. It is a complete machine vision
and remote monitoring system that immediately identifies thermal
problems that would otherwise go undetected. Its built-in logic makes
it ideal for safety/security systems, and for product and process
monitoring in quality/reliability assurance programs.
Find Faults Quickly
Finding and resolving problems early can save thousands of dollars by
resolving safety issues, cutting down on scrap and warranty costs, and
improving product quality. The FLIR A320 Infrared Camera can spot
subtle temperature variations undetectable by any other means. These
can be easily monitored with its thermal imaging, temperature alarms,
and actual temperature readouts.
Instant Non-contact Temperatures
The FLIR A320 Infrared Camera is designed to deliver accurate
thermographic imaging and repeatable temperature measurements in a wide
range of automation applications. Each thermal image is built from
76,800 individual picture elements that are sampled by the camera's
on-board electronics and software to measure temperature. The
near-real-time 16-bit 320x240 image data can be used to monitor and
help control a production process, or can be processed by the camera's
on-board intelligence to autonomously generate multiple independent
digital alarms. Fast data transmissions are facilitated by using the
MPEG-4 compressed image format.
Outstanding Imaging and High Thermal Sensitivity
From the beginning, the FLIR A320 Infrared Camera was developed to
deliver accurate radiometric imaging and repeatable temperature
measurements. It features an advanced, uncooled microbolometer focal
plane array (FPA) detector that delivers crisp, longwave images in a
multitude of palettes. Temperature variations as small as 0.08 degrees C can
be detected.
Extensive Connectivity Options
Multiple A320s can be networked through their 100baseT Ethernet
connections, and synchronized through the SNTP protocol. Each camera
can be assigned a unique IP address for detection and data exchange on
a network. FLIR's IR Monitor software can be used with a PC for camera
control, configuration and monitoring via the network. This also
provides instant access to A320 thermal images and temperature data by
any authorized user via LAN/WAN. In addition, alarm messages and images
can be sent by email to a remote location using the SMTP or FTP
protocol. Wireless connection options are also available.
Plug-and-play Setup
The FLIR A320 Infrared Camera features plug-and-play setup. Simply
connect the camera to a PC monitor and immediately view high quality,
real-time radiometric thermal images that accurately show heat patterns
and thermal anomalies. Alternatively, images can be viewed on a
standalone video monitor by using the camera's composite video output
(NTSC or PAL).
Easy to Configure and Operate
The user-intuitive FLIR A320 Infrared Camera is extremely easy to
operate. Its onboard logic and menu-driven controls enables users to
select and manipulate multiple target spots, temperature range, image
color palettes, multiple alarms and more - quickly and easily. Adding
IR imaging to a machine vision system is no more complex than adding a
visual image camera. Moreover, the FLIR A320 Infrared Camera provides a
simple way to create command and control programs through its bundled
IR Config and IR Monitor software modules.
