Optris adds a further high-tech-feature to its InfraSight infrared camera line: Smallest components can now be observed with infrared microscope optics. The 1:1 transfer of the object field to the infrared chip of the camera (FPA) allows taking infrared images and recording infrared videos of thermal processes of smallest possible objects, like for instance of SMD components in functional tests.

Accurate temperature measurements can be taken from objects as small as 90 µm, objects already as big as 35 µm can be presented by using this optical system. The size of the object field is 5,6 x 4,2 mm. High-quality germanium optics and a special anti reflection coating guarantee outstanding optical performance of the infrared images.

The software included in the packing list facilitates a recording and displaying of thermal image sequences of smallest objects in MPEG format. Interesting sections of this "infrared video" can be cut out and filed as reports for further analysis. The infrared camera optris® InfraSight Plus works with a temperature range between -20 and 250°C with an excellent temperature resolution of 0,1K. Optical lenses with varying fields of view-ing between 9° and 61° can be easily exchanged by the user.

Both camera series allow the storage of 100 and 200 radiometric thermal images respectively. The software ISview and ISconnect support a further processing of these thermal images as well as the reading of the temperature at any spot necessary. Additionally, every thermal camera can be equipped with a high-temperature option for temperature measurements of up to 900°C.
