‘Highest resolution’ infrared thermal imaging camera

Measuring just 45 x 56 x 90mm and with a weight of just 320g, the TIM 640 enables the recording of radiometric video images at 32Hz and a VGA resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. With a thermal sensitivity of 75mK, the camera can detect very small temperature differences, which is critical in many thermal analysis R&D projects and inline thermography applications. At ambient temperatures of between 0 and 50°C, the camera can measure object temperatures ranging from -20 to 900°C. The unit is suitable for a range of quality control, process monitoring and inline thermography applications, including the monitoring of small components in high speed production lines, plastics injection moulding, semiconductor manufacturing, as well as the analysis of electronic micro-components and functional testing of fully assembled PCBs. A USB 2.0 interface allows video recording at 32Hz. This is beneficial for short term thermal measurement activities, which need to be analysed in slow motion playback. Individual snapshots can be taken from these recordings. Measurement points are freely selectable and can be analysed via user defined areas of interest. Alarms can also be set up and displayed, as well as maximum, minimum and average temperatures.
