Welcome to a whole level of field inspection and analysis.
FLIR has put the power of thermal imaging within reach of everyone who needs to see beyond visible light. The FLIR C2 compact thermal camera allows building contractors and industry experts to quickly and easily survey a location and determine if deeper investigation is needed. This can save both time and money. Pull it out of your shirt pocket and check for hidden signs of heat which can indicate structural integrity defects, plumbing problems or wasted energy. Or worse, a major issue that could put lives in danger.
Seeing beyond the visible spectrum of light reveals a variety of detail, once you get further up or down the electromagnetic spectrum. Getting down into ultraviolet or up into infrared gives us information about the world around us that we would have missed completely. By tuning into the radiated heat of an object, reading the infrared energy emitted, we can see differences and immediately know there may be an issue.
How many times have you missed a problem that could have been averted, if only you had had a way to see the issue first? The FLIR C2 thermal imaging camera is the indispensable tool for your frontline inspections. It is a true thermal imaging camera that fits right in your pocket. You will never have to say "If only there was a way we could have known." When items emit more heat than they should (or more heat than other items, under similar conditions), the thermal camera is your best and safest way to know for sure. By the time your eyes can see the problem, it's probably too late.
What makes the FLIR C2 a true thermal imaging camera?
It has an 80x60 resolution, which gives you 4,800 pixels of temperature information.
It has very good thermal sensitivity. This is especially important when looking objects close to ambient temperature, so you can see the subtle differences.
It has MSX® real time image enhancement. This gives the FLIR C2 thermal imaging camera very sharp images for it's resolution.
It has a wide field of view. At 41° x 31° this will give you a view of approximately 3.9ft x 2.9ft and a spot size of about 0.29in x 0.29in from 5 feet away.
The FLIR C2 thermal imaging camera also produces true radiometric JPEGS. You can import the images you take into the included FLIR Tools software and then see the different temperatures throughout the image.
What are some other cool features of the FLIR C2 thermal imaging camera?
- It's compact. I mean REALLY compact. It looks like a smart phone. My phone is actually bigger than the C2.
- It has an LED lamp on the front. So, not only does it make a handy flashlight, it also takes bright visual images in dark areas.
- The FLIR C2 thermal camera also auto-rotates the image, depending on how you hold the camera. It can make either landscape or portrait images.
- The 3" screen is big and bright. Even better? It's also a touch-screen, so it makes the FLIR C2 easy to use.
- The C2 comes with FLIR’s unique 2-10 warranty, covering parts and labor for two years and the detector for ten. Not really cool, but good to know.
How does the FLIR C2 see heat?
The ability to “see” heat with a thermal camera way creates an entirely new level of awareness for both professionals and consumers, allowing them to find problems they may have missed before. The benefit is a non-destructive, more efficient, and more reliable way to troubleshoot that provides persuasive thermal images to help make the case for repairs and verify that work has been done correctly. This adds high visual impact to a building professional’s reports and marketing materials, and, of course, increases the contractor’s diagnostic credibility, which always makes good business sense.
Everything around you either emits or reflects heat energy. So when you look around a home with the
FLIR C2, its thermal images can show you where doors and windows may not be properly weatherized and are leaking cold or warm air (depending on the season). You may also see a section of an outside wall that appears considerably cooler during winter months, indicating voids where insulation is missing or improperly installed. You might see a dimmer switch or electrical breaker that’s much warmer than it should safely be indicating a pending problem or overloaded circuit. Or you might want to look for the subtle temperature differences in images that reveal potential signs of hidden moisture in walls, floors and ceilings. The list of uses is long and will grow dramatically as customers discover this unseen portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
