Why make do with single point thermal measurement, when a radiometric thermal imager is available for the price of a few pyrometers? This new and highly cost-effective on-line imager - the IRI 1002 - is the brainchild of IRISYS It has been introduced for fixed mounting and continuous operation and carries a price tag of just GBP 3,000

Tesco claims that thermal imaging cameras were a key factor in the company's half-year pre-tax profits rising ten per cent to GBP1.092 billion when announcing the company's figures this week.
Towcester-based, IRISYS designs and manufactures array-based detectors.
Its products include the successful and low cost IRI 1001 Handheld Thermal Imager.
The IRI1002 On-line Imager uses the well-proven IRISYS proprietary pyroelectric array that provides a 256 pixel image in real time (6Hz).
It is a fully radiometric instrument that will find applications in fixed condition monitoring, process control, critical vessel monitoring and intelligent security.
In process control, the comparatively low resolution makes it very simple for pixel by pixel temperature data to be automatically monitored and action taken when scene temperature exceeds pre-set parameters.
The imager can be considered as a multi-point pyrometer with a wide (20deg) field of view and 256 individual temperature measurement points.
The IRI1002 is fully self-contained, needing only a 12VDC power supply.
It outputs are either RS232 or CANBUS enabling it to be interfaced with up to 30 other sensors.
These features make it ideal for critical vessel monitoring which is required from several angles.
Sales Manager, David Furley points out that this imager changes all preconceptions about thermal imaging.
The unprecedented low price makes it suitable for many process and quality control applications where a single point pyrometer may have been previously considered.
It is envisaged that the product will appeal in particular to system integrators able to provide turnkey solutions to the many companies expressing interest in thermal imaging.
