infrared thermal imaging

Three years ago the first infrared camera for gas detection was launched by FLIR, and today infrared cameras are invaluable tools in finding and visualizing gas leaks. These award winning cameras also play an important role in companies´ environmental work, for instance, in preventing leakage of sulfur hexafluoride (SF₆), a gas 24 000 times more dangerous to the environment than CO₂. Now, FLIR launches the second generation infrared camera for SF₆ gas leak detection based on this technology, the FLIR GF306.
