Thermal image capturing makes leak detection more efficient and simpler, especially when the searched spot is hidden. Thus, breaking open walls and floors “on suspicion” becomes unnecessary.
Thermal imaging takes advantage of the fact that leaking water shows a different temperature than the environment.
The very vivid and informative false colour images of the thermal camera make the reliable and centimetre-perfect location of egression points possible. InfraTec, the Dresdner specialist for infrared measurement technologies, offers such cameras for mobile operations.
A mobile microbolometer-thermography camera with a very high resolution is introduced with new product line VarioCAM® High Definition. The cameras are easily operable with one hand and the high-luminosity 3.8’’ colour display guarantees a high-contrast image for optimal detail perception. The stepless digital zoom supports the detailed analysis of test objects.
This opens up many possible applications in the inspection of building materials: From the condition assessment of thermal insulation to the detection of air leaks and, of course, leak detection, the VarioCAM® High Definition is an indispensable device for building inspectors, energy consultants, architects, surveyors, engineers and craftsmen.
