Seek Thermal has announced the company’s line of infrared thermal imaging cameras for experts and contractors in industrial and commercial building trades. The Seek CompactPRO weighs less than 0.5 ounces and plugs directly into an iOS or Android smartphone device for connect-and-detect convenience. The CompactPRO is a thermal imaging camera built for a smartphone and features 76,800 measurement pixels, a thermal sensor array of 320×240, and a price point under $500.
The Seek PRO Series provides users in the commercial building trades and industrial segment the toolset they need to identify and locate the problem. The CompactPRO measures object temperature between the range of -40°F to 626°F, with sensitivity levels <70mK, and contains an adjustable focal lens. The CompactPRO also stores and transfers all radiometric data into a file format for documenting, cataloging, and post-capture analysis of infrared data.
CompactPRO KEY FEATURES INCLUDE:
- Measuring 1-inch x 1.75-inches x 1-inch for portability and on-demand thermal imaging
- 320×240 thermal imaging sensor reading 76,800 pixels of measurement data
- <70mk sensitivity
- Maximum FastFrame image frequency rate >15 (dependent on the user’s smartphone capability)
- Adjustable lens with a minimum focus distance of 15 cm
- Object temperature measurement range of -40°F to 626°F
