Description

FLIR X6980 HS MWIR Camera: Advanced Thermal Imaging for Critical Research and Development

The FLIR X6980 HS MWIR Camera is a high-performance thermal imaging solution designed for advanced research and development applications. With a 640 × 512 resolution MWIR InSb detector, this camera offers unparalleled precision in capturing fast-moving thermal events. Its high-speed imaging, combined with seamless software integration and robust functionality, makes it ideal for aerospace, defence, automotive, and material testing.

High-Speed Performance

Equipped to capture high-frame-rate thermal data, the FLIR X6980 HS can achieve full-frame rates up to 1,000 Hz and subwindowed rates of up to 29 kHz. The camera supports 10 GigE, CXP 2.1 high-speed interfaces, and Camera Link Full for unmatched data streaming capabilities.

Extended Recording Capabilities

With an integrated 4 TB SSD NVME, the X6980 HS can record more than 1.5 hours of continuous thermal events without dropping frames. This capability allows for detailed analysis of long-duration processes and events.

Precise Synchronisation

The camera features proprietary triggering, synchronisation, and IRIG time stamping to ensure precise on-time recording and seamless integration into complex R&D setups. These capabilities are critical for capturing and analysing dynamic thermal events with accuracy.

Applications:

  • High-speed thermal analysis for aerospace and defence applications.
  • Material behaviour testing under dynamic conditions.
  • Automotive research and development for thermal component evaluation.
  • Environmental and non-destructive testing.
