What is a thermal camera system?

Generally, thermal imaging cameras because of ignorance or lack of funds are scarcely used by the private sector, government agencies generally are more frequent users of the system.

It is important that organizations implement these technologies to avoid loosing the possibility to save resources by improving the energy consumption and optimizing processes

A thermal imaging camera uses the heat of the bodies to display images so no light is needed to obtain accurate temperature images of people or objects represented in color.

 

Contrary to the security cameras that support night vision they need some degree of light to produce images, the thermal cameras can see in total darkness.

Some applications are:
a) Perimeter Protection

They are used to supplement the security cameras to detect intrusions in areas without light, surprising the thief because he feels protected by the darkness.

b) Measurement of temperature in industrial processes
for example, manufacturers of electronic boards can detect short circuits or preventively by temperature to identify defective components

c) Applications for building maintenance
knowing the temperature of components such as transformers, ballasts, etc production machinery.
Identify the problems of energy loss, lack of insulation, inefficient heating systems, ventilation and air conditioning, radiant heat, damage to the piping of water from roofs and many more. A thermal camera identifies patterns of heat loss that are invisible to the naked eye. The thermal imaging quickly indicates air leaks within the building and measured data will be easy to compile a report.
 It is important to improve the performance of energy to save resources through inspections in homes and buildings.
d) Medical Applications
In the human body can detect the temperature difference for example in an analysis of the torso of a woman a breast area with different temperature could mean breast cancer

e) Educational applications
Museums, schools and so on. It is important that people know the technology and its applications

Depending on the company’s turnover and your budget you are encouraged to obtain advice from an expert in the field.
