Long-wave infrared cameras, commonly known as Uncooled Thermal Cameras, are frequently used for mid range applications in cooler climates. Long-wave infrared (LWIR) is a subdivision of the IR band of the electromagnetic spectrum, which captures infrared energy in the 8 to 14μm long-wave infrared (LWIR) spectrum.
Silent Sentinel offer mid to long range uncooled thermal cameras with lens options up to 300mm. Their long-wave infrared cameras include fixed and zoomable thermal lenses, and can be in small compact housing, or on their larger platforms.
Benefits of uncooled thermal cameras:
– Better than MWIR technology in fog
– Lower cost of ownership compared to a cooled camera
– Good in cooler climates
Long-wave Infrared (LWIR) thermal lens options:
- Fixed: 14mm, 25mm, 35mm, 50mm, 65mm, 100mm
- Zoom:15-100mm, 26-105mm, 50-150mm, 25-150mm, 25-225mm
- LR Range: 15-75mm, 15-100mm, 25-150mm, 25-225mm, 40-300mm
