Gauge block calibration system
The EPP 01 Gauge Block Calibration System can not only yield faster, more accurate results (+/-10nm) but also lower to ~15 the number of gauge blocks needed to calibrate a 122 block set.
Fused silica wafers added
Armstrong Optical now includes a series of fused silica wafers in its offering, ideal substrates for many applications.
The new IR928+ camera is a hand-held instrument that is supplied complete with a thermal imaging camera, a visible imaging camera, a laser locator and thermal- and visible-channel displays, allowing easy identification of thermal features and has been produced to the IP54 specification ensuring operational abilities in even the harshest environments.
On-board software functions - accessed via a set of thumb-operated keys - allow temperature measurements with sensitivity of less than 0.1C.
Object emissivity, single and multiple point temperatures, isotherms, max/min and electronic zoom are all standard functions ensuring comprehensive probing for, and pinpointing of, potential thermal variations.

Hand-held thermal and visible imaging camera
Armstrong Optical of Northampton has announced the immediate availability of a new, low cost, addition to its range of thermal imaging and visible imaging camera systems.
With on-board data storage for thermal and visible images plus voice annotation, the IR928+ camera is well able to operate as a stand-alone system.
However, for complete data security, the stored data can be easily transferred to a PC system via the built-in interface or transmitted via the optional wireless communication accessory to a remote monitoring station.
Bundled with the camera is a suite of Windows-based post-processing software offering an extensive range of temperature measurement, image processing and report generating functions.
The new IR928+ is more sensitive, more accurate, offers more choice and contains more standard features than any other camera within its price range.
The IR928+ has already shown itself to be ideal for applications such as energy management and building surveys, analysis of storage/reactor tank levels and insulation, pipe blockage, motor and pump bearings, overheating electrical switchgear, transformers, bus-bars and power lines, medical/veterinary thermography plus many, many more.
"The new IR928+ system brings the benefits of real-time thermal imaging and thermography to many, many more users", asserts Ian Johnstone, Sales and Marketing Director at Armstrong Optical .
"Now price need never be an obstacle when it comes to high finesse thermal imaging - the IR928+ represents the best value for money when compared to any other similarly specified system on the market today".
