FLIR X8580-HS SLS™

HIGH DEFINITION LWIR SCIENCE-GRADE CAMERA

FLIR X8580-HS SLS™

The FLIR X8580-HS InSb midwave IR camera is designed for scientists and engineers who need to capture detailed imagery of high-speed events, perform custom radiometric measurements, or detect points of failure in composites, solar cells, and electronics. This thermal imaging camera combines 1280 × 1024 HD resolution with fast frame rates and integration times, allowing researchers to record stop motion on fast-moving subjects or rapid temperature changes—whether in the lab or on the test range. With a four-position motorized filter wheel and support for FLIR motorized focus lenses, the X8580-HS InSb will provide higher quality recordings, save time, and mitigate frustration in dynamic acquisition environments.

FULL FRAME RATE STREAMING

Experience unmatched image clarity and speed with 10 GigE, CXP 2.1 high-speed interfaces or Camera Link Full.

EXTENDED SSD RECORDING

Capture more than two hours of detailed thermal events directly to a 4 TB SSD with zero dropped frames.

PRECISE TIMING SYSTEM

Proprietary triggering, synchronization, and accurate IRIG time stamping system ensures precise on-time recording.
