Teledyne Highlights Why Thermographers Need Training

Thermographers are becoming susceptible to common mistakes that can be avoided by proper training. Correctly applying thermal imaging requires a skilled operator knowledgeable of IR physics, camera operation, and measurement techniques.

Teledyne FLIR cameras help save lives in Stockholm fire

Firefighting is an extremely dangerous and demanding profession, both physically and mentally. However, help is at hand: Teledyne FLIR designed its K-series of professional yet affordable thermal imaging cameras to take the strain, assisting firefighters in navigating through smoky conditions while searching for hot spots and measuring temperature from a distance. The team at Solna Fire Station in Stockholm, Sweden, is a case in point, where the use of a FLIR K-series camera recently helped one of the team’s smoke divers save four lives in a city centre fire.

Seamless location and documentation of fugitive gas emissions

Oil and gas facilities typically have thousands of connections and fittings that require regular inspection for fugitive emissions. To reduce the time necessary to complete this task with traditional ‘sniffer’ technology, increasing numbers are turning to optical gas imaging (OGI) cameras from Teledyne FLIR.
