ThermoVision® A20M Infrared Camera

 
 


Compact ThermoVision® A20M Temperature Measurement Industrial Automation Infrared Camera
The ThermoVision® A20M offers an affordable and accurate temperature measurement solution for industrial process monitoring and product verification applications.

Featuring an ultra-compact, rugged IR imaging camera complete with multiple connectivity interfaces, this fully-integrated system provides a visual understanding of thermal performance and immediately identifies thermal problems otherwise undetectable.

 


 

Quickly Find Faults
Infared images can quickly highlight problems with a product or a process that simply cannot be detected by any other sensor technology. Subtle temperature, moisture or material variations that can signal a process problem stand out clearly in a thermal image. Finding these problems early and determining their severity can improve product quality and save thousands of dollars in scrap or warranty expenses.

Instant Non-Contact Temperature Measurement
The A20M was designed from the beginning- at the detector level- to deliver accurate, repeatable temperature measurements. Each thermal image includes 19,200 picture elements that can be accessed independently to measure temperature. These calibrated measurements can then be used as criterion to monitor or control a production process.

Outstanding Imaging and High Thermal Sensitivity
Advanced, uncooled microbolometer FPA detector technology delivers crisp, high-resolution longwave images that allow you to see variances as small as 0.12°C. Real-time image acquistion at standard video rates (60Hz) allows you to see rapid, thermally transient events.

Plug and Play
Simply connect the camera to a standard TV and produce high quality, real-time radiometric thermal images that accuratley show heat patterns and thermal anomalies.

Each A20M can be equipped with its own unique URL allowing it to be addressed independently via its Ethernet connections. This provides instant access to A20M thermal images by an authorized user with a web browser.

Extremely easy-to-operate, the user-intuitive A2OM helps you clearly understand the thermal chracteristics of products and processes so you can make the decisions necessary to improve both.

Ultra-Compact, Rugged and Lightweight
Built to operate for long periods in harsh industrial environments, the A20M has an IP40 rating. Its compact, lightweight (<1.7 Lbs) design allows it to be mounted on your porduction line in hard-to-get-at locations that may be optimal for data collections. Fully configured I/O functionality allows the A20M to be integrated quickly and easily to your control systems. Multiple programming options.

Extensive Connectivity Options
Extensive input/output functionality for both stand-alone and integrated configuration. Ideal for product testing and process monitoring, the A20M features FireWire (IEEE 1394) digital output for fast image and data transfer of real-time, fully radiometric 14-bit imates to a PC. Ethernet connectivity is available for network and/or multiple camera installations.

Multiple Programming Options
The A20M calibrated measurement output can be easily leveraged to control a process when coupled with LabVIEW and FLIR's LabVIEW Developers toolkit; this kit allows programmers to easily access numerous measurement functions that can then be used to turn the A20M into a powerful machine vision tool with a minimal investment in machine vision software development.

Or, work in your own programming environment with the ThermoVision System Developers Kit (SDK) based on Active X and Visual Basic C++. The SDK provides full access to camera measurements and includes source code examples that will dramatically reduce the time it takes to program a custom solution.
