Description

FLIR A6481 Cooled MWIR Thermal Imaging Camera

The FLIR A6481 thermal imaging camera is a high-performance, mid-wave infrared (MWIR) cooled camera designed for automation, process control, and non-destructive testing. Its cooled detector and programmable frame rate of up to 125 Hz allow it to capture fast-moving events that an uncooled camera cannot resolve.

It delivers 640 × 512 pixels in the 3.0 to 5.0 µm band with a typical thermal sensitivity of 25 mK and a 14-bit dynamic range. The FLIR A6481 thermal imaging camera features motorized focusing, a motorized 3-position filter wheel, and radiometric streaming via Gigabit Ethernet with GigE Vision, making it easy to integrate into test benches and automated production lines.

Main features

  • Detector refrigerado de altas prestaciones: FLIR HOT MW (SLS) de 640 × 512, banda de 3.0 a 5.0 µm, sensibilidad < 30 mK y 25 mK típica, con operabilidad del 99.5 %.
  • Speed and integration times: programmable frequency from 0.0015 Hz to 125 Hz, integration time starting at 480 ns, and flexible windowing up to 16 × 4 pixels.
  • Precise measurement: standard range from -20 °C to 350 °C with an accuracy of ±2 °C, typically ±1 °C; optional ranges with filters up to 3000 °C.
  • Interchangeable optics: FLIR FPO-M 4-tab motorized bayonet mount, 17, 25, 50, 100, and 200 mm lenses, macro lenses, and 1x and 3x magnifying lenses.
  • Industrial integration: radiometric streaming via Gigabit Ethernet (GigE Vision), SDI video output at 720p and 1080p, and image timestamping.
  • Motorized filter wheel: 3 positions for 1-inch filters, allowing you to expand the measurement range without changing the chamber.

Common applications

  • Non-Destructive Testing and Active Thermography
  • Process Control and Industrial Automation with High-Speed Events
  • Research and Development, Test Benches, and Laboratory
  • Thermal Characterization of Electronics and Materials

Compatibility

Integration via GigE Vision and GenICam with analysis software and industrial vision systems. Supports filter holders behind the lens and FLIR FPO-M series lenses, both manual and motorized.
