COMPACT LWIR HD THERMAL CAMERA

FLIR A8580 SLS

FLIR A8580 LWIR SLS cameras provide the crisp imagery, accurate temperature measurement, and streamlined analysis features needed for industrial, military, and manufacturing R&D applications. Thanks to the 1.3 MP Strained Layer Superlattice (SLS) detector and the suite of manual and remote focus lenses, users can maximize the number of measurement pixels on their target. Simple, single cable connectivity using Gigabit Ethernet or CoaXPress provides complete camera control plus data capturing in FLIR Research Studio software, so users can analyze and understand data faster than ever before.

ADVANCED FEATURES FOR OPTIMAL FLEXIBILITY

Offers remote triggering, synchronization capabilities, and compatibility with a wide range of manual and remote focus lenses, including microscope lenses.

SIMPLIFIED ANALYSIS AND SHARING

FLIR Research Studio’s simple Connect–View–Record–Analyze workflow helps you collect and analyze data quickly and collaborate with your team easily.

SUPERIOR RESOLUTION AND MEASUREMENT ACCURACY

HD resolution, ±2°C accuracy, and a built-in filter wheel for quickly switching to high temperature ranges help ensure you collect accurate, meaningful temperature data.
