EXPERT THERMAL IMAGING CAMERAS ARE NOW ‘METERLINKED’

The FLIR B620 and B660 are thermal imaging cameras for expert, building thermographers and as such they already contain many smart features for swift and effective building inspection and detailed analysis. The latest generation of these high-end models add to this list another unique FLIR feature. This is MeterLink, wireless connection technology that allows the FLIR infrared camera to capture readings from an Extech moisture meter.

The FLIR B-Series camera receives values from a MeterLink-enabled Extech meter via Bluetooth and automatically embeds these readings in the image so the thermographer can correlate all the relevant information. It also reduces the potential for a notation error and saves time during reporting.

The new MeterLink feature together with high thermal sensitivity of <30mK, contrast optimisation, built-in GPS and a wide choice of analysis tools puts the top-of-the-range FLIR B-Series models in a class of their own. The cameras also support the clever Panorama feature, another capability unique to FLIR.

This smart imaging stitching tool enables every pixel to be transferred to a composite image complete with its own radiometric data. So, regardless of the eventual image size, accurate temperature measurement is assured and the enlarged image retains its JPEG format.

The addition of MeterLink to the feature list on the FLIR B620 and B660 means this technology is now available across the complete FLIR range of building specific infrared cameras.
