FLIR G304 - Camera for refrigerant leak detection
Available with 14.5° or 24° lens
The FLIR G304 is an innovative optical gas imaging (OGI) camera used to detect potential hydrofluorocarbons, refrigerants and other industrial gases in production facilities and chemical plants. Refrigerant gases are potentially toxic, harmful to the environment and heavily regulated. With the portable, non-contact G304, you can safely and effectively scan large areas without interfering with, shutting down or disrupting large-scale storage and refrigeration operations.
SUPERIOR GAS DISPLAY
The G304 uses FLIR's patented High Sensitivity Mode (HSM), which makes leaks stand out more clearly while allowing it to efficiently scan thousands of components and accurately measure temperatures from -40°C to 500°C.
RECORD AND REPORT FINDINGS IN AN EFFICIENT MANNER
Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® allow you to connect to smartphones or tablets and effortlessly edit and store images in the cloud, or transfer files wirelessly via the included FLIR Ignite™ cloud service
ERGONOMIC DESIGN FOR COMFORTABLE HANDLING
Operate and interact comfortably with your G304 thanks to its 4-inch (10.16 cm) rotating LCD touchscreen, which allows you to view targets from any direction
