FAQ
Q1: What is infrared thermal imaging?
A1: Infrared thermal imaging uses infrared radiation to create images or measure temperatures, especially in low visibility conditions like darkness, smoke, or fog.
Q2: How does infrared thermal imaging work in low visibility environments?
A2: It detects heat signatures, allowing for visibility even in complete darkness or through smoke and fog.
Q3: Can infrared thermal imagers work in daylight?
A3: Yes, they work independently of visible light (day/night applicable).
Q4: What is an infrared detector or thermal imaging sensor?
A4: The core component of thermal imagers, it captures infrared radiation and converts it into thermal images or data.
Q5: What is the difference between uncooled and cooled infrared detectors?
A5: Uncooled detectors are faster, more energy-efficient, and lower in cost, while cooled detectors offer higher sensitivity, making them ideal for precise measurements.
Q6: Can thermal imagers detect heat signatures through walls or other materials?
A6: Thermal imagers detect surface heat only; they cannot see through walls or solid materials.
Q7: What is NETD in infrared detectors?
A7: Measure of sensitivity-lower NETD = better detection of small temperature differences.
Q8: Can thermal imagers work in rain or fog?
A8: Yes, but their effectiveness decreases with distance. Anti-fog lenses can help improve visibility in such conditions.
Q9: How to maintain an infrared thermal imager?
A9: Keep the lens clean, avoid impact, and store it in a dry, low-temperature environment.
Q10: Can I get a demo of your infrared products?
A10: Yes-contact our sales team for on-site or online product demos.
