Instrotech, local representative of infrared camera technologies Optris, has announced an addition to the Compact Line, the Xi 80 and Xi 400, now with new industrial accessories for use in rough conditions. The system’s water-cooled housing, air purge unit and the shutter can be used both individually and combined. The stainless-steel shutter is generally used to protect the optics from contamination and foreign objects. This is important when the camera measures upwards and the measurement objects are above it, as in the glass industry. With a response time of just 100 ms, the IR camera is protected from falling broken glass. The shutter can be used in intermittent processes so that the optics are exposed to environmental conditions only during measurement . A stainless-steel, water-cooled housing and an air purge collar made of anodised aluminum are available.
