The role of thermal imager is mainly used in research and development or industrial inspection and equipment maintenance, and is also widely used in fire prevention, night vision, and security. The functions of thermal imagers are: non-contact temperature measurement, real-time monitoring, detection and diagnostics, security monitoring, environmental monitoring and so on.
1, non-contact temperature measurement
The thermal imager is able to measure the temperature of an object's surface non-contactly through infrared technology without contacting the object to be measured, so it can measure objects at high or low temperatures or in hazardous environments to ensure the safety of personnel.
2. Real-time monitoring
The thermal imager can capture and display the temperature distribution on the surface of an object in real-time mode, which is very useful for some applications that need to monitor the temperature changes in a timely manner, such as industrial production, medical diagnostics, and fire rescue.
3. Detection and diagnostics
The thermal imager can detect and diagnose the temperature distribution on the surface of an object, which can be used for applications such as troubleshooting, quality control, and defect detection, such as detecting heat leaks in a building, hot spots in an electrical circuit, and so on.
4, security monitoring
The thermal imager can monitor temperature changes on the surface of an object at night or in low-light environments, and can be used for security monitoring, warnings, and prevention, such as monitoring for fires, smoke, and intruders.
5, environmental monitoring
The thermal imager can be used to monitor the temperature distribution in the environment, such as detecting the temperature distribution of air conditioning and heating equipment, and the water temperature in the water pipe.
