7.1 FLIR GF300
7.1.1 Optical gas imaging of methane and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
The FLIR GF300 is an IR camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pin-points leaks of VOCs, without the need to shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting emissions at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.
The FLIR GF300 is used in industrial settings such as oil refineries, natural gas processing plants, offshore platforms, chemical/petrochemical industries, and biogas and power generation plants.
7.1.2 Benefits
- Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF300 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by allowing a broad area to be scanned rapidly and without the need to interrupt the industrial process.
- Increased worker safety: OGI allows gas leaks to be detected in a non-contact mode and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the inspector being exposed to invisible and potentially harmful or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF300 gas imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.
- Protecting the environment: Several VOCs are dangerous to human health or cause harm to the environment, and are usually governed by regulations. Even small leaks can be detected and documented using theFLIR GF300 camera.
7.2 FLIR GF304
7.2.1 Optical gas imaging of refrigerant gases
The FLIR GF304 is an IR camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pin-points leaks of refrigerant gases, without the need to shut down the operation. This portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting gases at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.

The opposite of emissivity is reflectivity. The emissivity determines how much of the radiation originates from the object as opposed to being reflected by it.
- Reflected apparent temperature, which is used when compensating for the radiation from the surroundings reflected by the object into the camera. This property of the object is called reflectivity.
- Object distance, i.e., the distance between the camera and the object of interest.
- Atmospheric temperature, i.e., the temperature of the air between the camera and the object of interest.
- Relative humidity, i.e., the relative humidity of the air between the camera and the object of interest.
- External optics temperature, i.e., the temperature of any protective windows etc. that are set up between the camera and the object of interest. If no protective window or protective shield is used, this value is irrelevant.
- External optics transmission, i.e., the optical transmission of any protective windows, etc. that are set up between the camera and the object of interest.
Note For furnace and other high-temperature applications, mount the heatshield on the camera. You must also enter the correct external optics transmission value of the heatshield into the camera. The external optics transmission value is printed on a label on the inside of the heatshield. You enter the external optics transmission value in the object parameters dialog on the Edit tab.
When you remove the heatshield you must reset the external optics transmission to 1.0.
14.9.3 Recommended values
If you are unsure about the values, the following values are recommended:
| Emissivity 0.95 | |
| Distance 1.0 m (3.3 ft.) | |
| Reflected apparent temperature | +20°C (+69°F) |
| Relative humidity 50% | |
| Atmospheric temperature | +20°C (+69°F) |

18.4 Changing object parameters
18.4.1 General
For accurate measurements, you must set the object parameters. You can do this locally or globally. This procedure describes how to change the object parameters globally.
18.4.2 Types of parameters
The camera can use these object parameters:
- Emissivity, i.e., how much radiation an object emits, compared to the radiation of a theoretical reference object of the same temperature (called a "blackbody"). The opposite of emissivity is reflectivity. The emissivity determines how much of the radiation originates from the object as opposed to being reflected by it.
- Reflected apparent temperature, which is used when compensating for the radiation from the surroundings reflected by the object into the camera. This property of the object is called reflectivity.
- Object distance, i.e., the distance between the camera and the object of interest.
- Atmospheric temperature, i.e., the temperature of the air between the camera and the object of interest.
- Relative humidity, i.e., the relative humidity of the air between the camera and the object of interest.
- External optics temperature, i.e., the temperature of any protective windows etc. that are set up between the camera and the object of interest. If no protective window or protective shield is used, this value is irrelevant.
- External optics transmission, i.e., the optical transmission of any protective windows, etc. that are set up between the camera and the object of interest.
Note For furnace and other high-temperature applications, mount the heatshield on the camera. You must also enter the correct external optics transmission value of the heatshield into the camera. The external optics transmission value is printed on a label on the inside of the heatshield. You enter the external optics transmission value in the object parameters dialog on the Edit tab.
When you remove the heatshield you must reset the external optics transmission to 1.0.
18.4.3 Recommended values
If you are unsure about the values, the following values are recommended:
| Emissivity 0.95 | |
| Distance 1.0 m (3.3 ft.) | |
| Reflected apparent temperature | +20°C (+69°F) |
| Relative humidity 50% | |
| Atmospheric temperature | +20°C (+69°F) |

P/N: 44401-0201
Rev.: 45202
| General description | |
| The FLIR GF300 is an infrared camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pinpoints leaks of methane and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs), without the need to shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting emissions at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.The FLIR GF300 is used in industrial settings such as oil refineries, natural gas processing plants, offshore platforms, chemical/petrochemical industries, and biogas and power generation plants. | |
| Benefits: | |
| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF300 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by allowing a broad area to be scanned rapidly and without the need to interrupt the industrial process.Increased worker safety: OGI allows gas leaks to be detected in a non-contact mode and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the user being exposed to invisible and potentially harmful or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF300 gas imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: Several VOCs are dangerous to human health or cause harm to the environment, and are usually governed by regulations. Even small leaks can be detected and documented using the FLIR GF300 camera. | |
| Detects the following gases: benzene, ethanol, ethylbenzene, heptane, hexane, isoprene, methanol, MEK, MIBK, octane, pentane, 1-pentene, toluene, xylene, butane, ethane, methane, propane, ethylene, propylene. | |

22.6 FLIR GF300 24°
P/N: 44401-0202
Rev.: 45202
| General description | |
| The FLIR GF300 is an infrared camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pinpoints leaks of methane and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs), without the need to shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting emissions at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.The FLIR GF300 is used in industrial settings such as oil refineries, natural gas processing plants, offshore platforms, chemical/petrochemical industries, and biogas and power generation plants. | |
| Benefits: | |
| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF300 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by allowing a broad area to be scanned rapidly and without the need to interrupt the industrial process.Increased worker safety: OGI allows gas leaks to be detected in a non-contact mode and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the user being exposed to invisible and potentially harmful or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF300 gas imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: Several VOCs are dangerous to human health or cause harm to the environment, and are usually governed by regulations. Even small leaks can be detected and documented using the FLIR GF300 camera. | |
| Detects the following gases: benzene, ethanol, ethylbenzene, heptane, hexane, isoprene, methanol, MEK, MIBK, octane, pentane, 1-pentene, toluene, xylene, butane, ethane, methane, propane, ethylene, propylene. | |

This portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting gases at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.Refrigerant gases are found in, for example, the food, chemical/petrochemical, and automotive industries, as well as in air-conditioning systems. | |
| Benefits: | |
| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF304 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by being able to scan a broad area rapidly without the need to interrupt the industrial process. The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images on the remote control of the camera. The FLIR GF304 can also be used for temperature measurement, which makes it even more useful for predictive maintenance.Increased worker safety: The leak detection of gases can be performed in non-contact mode, and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the user being exposed to invisible and potentially harmful or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF304 gas-imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and a tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: Several refrigerant gases have a high global warming potential and are usually governed by regulations.

22.9 FLIR GF304 14.5° Fixed lens
P/N: 59602-0101
Rev.: 45202
| General description |
| The FLIR GF304 is an infrared camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pinpoints leaks of refrigerant gases, without the need to shut down the operation. This portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting gases at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.Refrigerant gases are found in, for example, the food, chemical/petrochemical, and automotive industries, as well as in air-conditioning systems. |
| Benefits:Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF304 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by being able to scan a broad area rapidly without the need to interrupt the industrial process. The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images or the remote control of the camera. The FLIR GF304 can also be used for temperature measurement, which makes it even more useful for predictive maintenance.Increased worker safety: The leak detection of gases can be performed in non-contact mode, and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the user being exposed to invisible and potentially harmful or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF304 gas-imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and a tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: Several refrigerant gases have a high global warming potential and are usually governed by regulations. Even small leaks can be detected and documented using the FLIR GF304 camera. |

22.11 FLIR GF304 24° Fixed lens
P/N: 59602-0102
Rev.: 45202
| General description |
| The FLIR GF304 is an infrared camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pinpoints leaks of refrigerant gases, without the need to shut down the operation. This portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting gases at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.Refrigerant gases are found in, for example, the food, chemical/petrochemical, and automotive industries, as well as in air-conditioning systems. |
| Benefits:Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF304 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by being able to scan a broad area rapidly without the need to interrupt the industrial process. The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images or the remote control of the camera. The FLIR GF304 can also be used for temperature measurement, which makes it even more useful for predictive maintenance.Increased worker safety: The leak detection of gases can be performed in non-contact mode, and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the user being exposed to invisible and potentially harmful or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF304 gas-imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and a tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: Several refrigerant gases have a high global warming potential and are usually governed by regulations. Even small leaks can be detected and documented using the FLIR GF304 camera. |

22.14 FLIR GF306 24°
P/N: 44201-0102
Rev.: 45202
| General description | |
| The FLIR GF306 is an infrared camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pinpoints leaks—especially of sulfur hexafluoride ( SF and ammonia—without the need to de-energize high-voltage equipment or shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety by detecting emissions at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases. SF_6 is used in the electric power industry as an insulator and quenching medium for gas-insulated substances and circuit breakers. The gas is also used in magnesium production and semiconductor manufacture. Ammonia is produced in ammonia plants, and is used mainly for the production of fertilizers. | |
| Benefits: | |
| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF306 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces inspection time by allowing a broad area to be scanned rapidly and without the need to de-energize components in the high-voltage area. The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images or the remote control of the camera. The FLIR GF306 can also be used for temperature measurement, which makes it even more useful for the predictive maintenance of high-voltage equipment.Increased worker safety: OGI allows gas leaks to be detected in a non-contact mode and from a safe distance. This prevents electrical exposure to personnel working in a high-voltage area. With a GF306 gas imaging camera, it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: SF_6 is a well-known greenhouse gas that causes harm to the environment, and is usually governed by regulations, SF_6 is a global warming potential 24 000 times higher than carbon dioxide.

22.16 FLIR GF309 14.5°
P/N: 44601-0101
Rev.: 45202
| General description |
| The FLIR GF309 is an infrared camera for furnace and high temperature inspection (e.g., of industrial furnaces, chemical heaters, and coal-fired boilers), without the need to shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by measuring through flames at a safe distance, for all types of furnaces. A good knowledge of the furnace condition can avert failures and unscheduled shutdownsIndustrial furnaces, heaters, and boilers are found in the chemical, petrochemical, and utility industries. |
| Benefits: |
| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF309 reduces inspection time by measuring the temperature through flames without the need to interrupt the industrial process or await scheduled service shutdowns. A furnace camera can help you to determine how to run a furnace/boiler efficiently to give the best fuel economy and maximize production output and quality. As the FLIR GF309 has a wide temperature range, high-accuracy electrical and mechanical inspections can be performed, which makes the camera even more useful for predictive maintenance.The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images or the remote control of the camera—a useful function if regulations require a second person to accompany the furnace inspector or thermal images needs to be sent quickly for a second opinion.Increased worker safety: High-temperature measurement can be performed through flames in a non-contact mode, and from a safe distance. Custom-built, the FLIR GF309 also features a detachable heat-shield designed to reflect heat away from the camera and the camera operator, providing increased protection. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Increased furnace safety: Good knowledge of furnace/boiler condition and operating parameters can provide the information needed to avert catastrophic failures and prevent unscheduled shutdowns. |

22.18 FLIR GF309 24°
P/N: 44601-0102
Rev.: 45202
| General description |
| The FLIR GF309 is an infrared camera for furnace and high temperature inspection (e.g., of industrial furnaces, chemical heaters, and coal-fired boilers), without the need to shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by measuring through flames at a safe distance, for all types of furnaces. A good knowledge of the furnace condition can avert failures and unscheduled shutdownsIndustrial furnaces, heaters, and boilers are found in the chemical, petrochemical, and utility industries. |
| Benefits: |
| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF309 reduces inspection time by measuring the temperature through flames without the need to interrupt the industrial process or await scheduled service shutdowns. A furnace camera can help you to determine how to run a furnace/boiler efficiently to give the best fuel economy and maximize production output and quality. As the FLIR GF309 has a wide temperature range, high-accuracy electrical and mechanical inspections can be performed, which makes the camera even more useful for predictive maintenance.The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablet PCs for the wireless transfer of images or the remote control of the camera—a useful function if regulations require a second person to accompany the furnace inspector or thermal images needs to be sent quickly for a second opinion.Increased worker safety: High-temperature measurement can be performed through flames in a non-contact mode, and from a safe distance. Custom-built, the FLIR GF309 also features a detachable heat-shield designed to reflect heat away from the camera and the camera operator, providing increased protection. The camera is ergonomically designed with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Increased furnace safety: Good knowledge of furnace/boiler condition and operating parameters can provide the information needed to avert catastrophic failures and prevent unscheduled shutdowns. |

P/N: 44401-0101
Rev.: 45202
| General description | |
| The FLIR GF320 is an infrared camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pinpoints of methane and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs), without the need to shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting emissions at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.The FLIR GF320 is used in industrial settings such as oil refineries, natural gas processing plants, offshore platforms, chemical/petrochemical industries, and biogas and power generation plants. | |
| Benefits: | |
| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF320 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by allowing a broad area to be scanned rapidly and without the need to interrupt the industrial process. The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images or remote control of the camera. The FLIR GF320 is also used for temperature measurement, which makes it even more useful for predictive maintenance.Increased worker safety: OGI allows gas leaks to be detected in a non-contact mode and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the user being exposed to invisible and potentially harmful or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF320 gas imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: Several VOCs are dangerous to human health or cause harm to the environment, and are usually governed by regulations. Even small leaks can be detected and documented using the FLIR GF320 camera. | |

22.23 FLIR GF320 24° Fixed lens
P/N: 44402-0102
Rev.: 45202
| General description |
| The FLIR GF320 is an infrared camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pinpoints of methane and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs), without the need to shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting emissions at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.The FLIR GF320 is used in industrial settings such as oil refineries, natural gas processing plants, offshore platforms, chemical/petrochemical industries, and biogas and power generation plants. |
| Benefits: |
| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF320 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by allowing a broad area to be scanned rapidly and without the need to interrupt the industrial process. The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images or remote control of the camera. The FLIR GF320 is also used for temperature measurement, which makes it even more useful for predictive maintenance.Increased worker safety: OGI allows gas leaks to be detected in a non-contact mode and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the user being exposed to invisible and potentially harmful or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF320 gas imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: Several VOCs are dangerous to human health or cause harm to the environment, and are usually governed by regulations. Even small leaks can be detected and documented using the FLIR GF320 camera. |

22.25 FLIR GF343 24° Fixed lens
P/N: 65702-0102
Rev.: 45202
| General description | |
| The new FLIR GF343 is an optical gas camera for visualizing carbon dioxide with this camera you can quickly and easily find gas leaks where the main component. | |
| Key features:Visualizes gas leaks in real time.Inspects without interruption of process.Traces leaks to their source. | |
| Carbon capture and storage—stop the escalation of global warming:A global transition to a sustainable low-carbon economy is a necessity.Global energy demand is still dominated by fossil fuels being combusted in quantities incompatible with levels required to stabilize greenhouse gases concentrations at safe levels in the atmosphere. CO_2 (R744)—the new environmental friendly refrigerant:Air-conditioning for cars—replaces R134a. CO_2 -based heat pumps.Electrical power—replaces sulfur hexafluoride. CO_2 —a harmless tracer gas:Use CO_2 to trace leaks. | |
| NoteThe CO_2 background level in the atmosphere varies between about 400 ppm (e.g., outdoors) to 5000 ppm (e.g., very high levels indoors), and the ability to see using the FLIR GF343 depends on this gas concentration and also on the distance to the target. For example, an outdoor leak at a distance of 10 m (33') adds 4000 ppm × m to the gas concentration length. | |

22.26 FLIR GF346 14.5°
P/N: 59801-0101
Rev.: 45202
| General description | |
| The FLIR GF346 is an infrared camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pinpoints leaks of carbon monoxide (CO) and other harmful gases, without the need to shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting emissions at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.CO is an industrial gas with applications in the steel industry and bulk chemicals manufacturing. It is also used for packaging systems for fresh meat and fish. | |
| Benefits: | |
| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF346 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by allowing a broad area to be scanned rapidly and without the need to interrupt the industrial process. The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images or remote control of the camera. The FLIR GF346 can also be used for temperature measurement, which makes it even more useful for predictive maintenance.Increased worker safety: CO can be toxic to humans when encountered in higher concentrations. OGI allows gas leaks to be detected in a non-contact mode and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the user being exposed to invisible and highly toxic gases or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF346 gas imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: Several gases, such as CO, have a high global warming potential, and are usually governed by regulations. Even small leaks can be detected and documented using the FLIR GF346 camera. | |
| Detects the following gases: carbon monoxide, nitrous oxide, ketene, ethenone, butyl isocyanide, hexyl isocyanide, cyanogen bromide, acetonitrile, acetyl cyanide, chlorine isocyanate, bromine isocyanate, methyl thiocyanate, ethyl thiocyanate, chlorodimethylsilane, dichloromethylsilane, silane, germane, arsine. | |

| Improved efficiency: The FLIR GF346 reduces revenue loss by pinpointing even small gas leaks quickly and efficiently, and from a distance. It also reduces the inspection time by allowing a broad area to be scanned rapidly and without the need to interrupt the industrial process. The wireless connectivity of the camera allows you to connect to smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images or remote control of the camera. The FLIR GF346 can also be used for temperature measurement, which makes it even more useful for predictive maintenance.Increased worker safety: CO can be toxic to humans when encountered in higher concentrations. OGI allows gas leaks to be detected in a non-contact mode and from a safe distance. This reduces the risk of the user being exposed to invisible and highly toxic gases or explosive chemicals. With a FLIR GF346 gas imaging camera it is easy to scan areas of interest that are difficult to reach with conventional methods. The camera is ergonomically designed, with a bright LCD and tiltable viewfinder, which facilitates its use over a full working day.Protecting the environment: Several gases, such as CO, have a high global warming potential, and are usually governed by regulations. Even small leaks can be detected and documented using the FLIR GF346 camera. |

- Do not clean the infrared lens too vigorously. This can damage the anti-reflective coating.
Cooler maintenance
26.1 General
The microcooler is designed to provide maintenance-free operation for many thousands of hours. The microcooler contains pressurized helium gas.
After several thousand hours of operation the gas pressure decreases, and cooler service is required to restore cooler performance. The cooler also contains micro ball bearings, which may exhibit wear by becoming louder.
26.2 Signs to watch for
The FLIR Systems microcooler is equipped with a closed-loop speed regulator, which adjusts the cooler motor speed to regulate the detector temperature.
Typically, the cooler runs at maximum speed for 7–10 minutes (depending on model), and then slows to about 40% of maximum speed. As the gas pressure degrades, the motor continues at maximum speed for longer and longer periods to attain operating temperature
Eventually, as the helium pressure decreases, the motor will lose the ability to achieve and/or maintain operating temperature. When this occurs, the camera must be returned to FLIR Systems Customer Service Department for service.
27.1 General
The FLIR GF3xx series range of cameras has been engineered and designed to detect various gases, such as hydrocarbons, sulfur hexafluoride, and carbon dioxide. Within the laboratory, FLIR Systems has tested numerous gases for detection at varying concentrations.

Why do some gases absorb infrared energy?
From a simplistic mechanical point of view, molecules in a gas could be compared to weights (the balls in the figures below), connected together via springs. Depending on the number of atoms, their respective size and mass, the elastic constant of the springs, molecules may move in given directions, vibrate along an axis, rotate, twist, stretch, rock, wag, etc.
The simplest gas molecules are single atoms, like helium, neon or krypton. They have no way to vibrate or rotate, so they can only move by translation in one direction at a time.
Figure 28.1 Single atom
The next most complex category of molecules is diatomic, made of two atoms such as hydrogen (H), nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O). They have the ability to tumble around their axes in addition to translational motion.
Figure 28.2 Two atoms
Then there are complex diatomic molecules, such as carbon dioxide) (C6H4) (CH4), sulfur hexafluoride (SF), and styrene (CH5CH=CH2) (these are just a few examples).
Figure 28.3 Simple mechanical model of carbon dioxide OB atoms per molecule
This assumption is valid for multi-atomic molecules.

Their increased degrees of freedom allow multiple rotational and vibrational transitions. Because they are built from multiple atoms, they can absorb and emit heat more effectively than simple molecules. Depending on the frequency of the transitions, some of them fall into energy ranges that are located in the infrared region where the infrared camera is sensitive.
| Transition type Frequency | Spectral range | |
| Rotation of heavy molecules 10 | ^9-10^11 Hz Microwaves, above | 3 mm/0.118 in. |
| Rotation of light molecules and vibration of heavy molecules | 10^11-10^13 Hz Far infrared, between | 30 μm and 3 mm/0.118 in. |
| Vibration of light molecules. Rotation and vibration of the structure | 10^13-10^14 Hz Infrared, between | μm and 30 μm |
| Electronic transitions 10 | ^14-10^16 Hz UV-visible |
In order for a molecule to absorb or emit a photon via a transition from one state to another the molecule must have a dipole moment capable of briefly oscillating at the same frequency as the interacting photon. This quantum mechanical interaction allows the electromagnetic field energy of the photon to be captured or emitted by the molecule.
FLIR GF3xx series cameras take advantage of the absorbing and emitting nature of certain molecules, to visualize them in black or white in their native environments. The gas visualization contrast is a function of the gas concentration multiplied by the path length (CL), the temperature difference between to background (e.g. a wall) and the gas plume temperature.
FLIR GF3xx series focal plane arrays and optical systems are specifically tuned to very narrow spectral ranges, in the order of hundreds of nanometers, and are therefore selective. Only gases with sufficient signal strength active in the infrared region that is delimited by a narrow band pass filter can be detected.
Since the energy from the gases is very weak, all camera components are optimized to emit as little energy as possible. This is a very effective solution to provide a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio. Hence, the filter itself is maintained at a cryogenic temperature.

31.1 Introduction
Calibration of a thermal camera is a prerequisite for temperature measurement. The calibration provides the relationship between the input signal and the physical quantity that the user wants to measure. However, despite its widespread and frequent use, the term "calibration" is often misunderstood and misused. Local and national differences as well as translation-related issues create additional confusion.
Unclear terminology can lead to difficulties in communication and erroneous translations, and subsequently to incorrect measurements due to misunderstandings and, in the worst case, even to lawsuits.
31.2 Definition—what is calibration?
The International Bureau of Weights and Measures defines calibration ^15 in the following way:
an operation that, under specified conditions, in a first step, establishes a relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by measurement standards and corresponding indications with associated measurement uncertainties and, in a second step, uses this information to establish a relation for obtaining a measurement result from an indication.
The calibration itself may be expressed in different formats: this can be a statement, calibration function, calibration diagram, calibration curve ^7 , or calibration table.
Often, the first step alone in the above definition is perceived and referred to as being "calibration." However, this is not (always) sufficient.
Considering the calibration procedure of a thermal camera, the first step establishes the relation between emitted radiation (the quantity value) and the electrical output signal (the indication). This first step of the calibration procedure consists of obtaining a homogeneous (or uniform) response when the camera is placed in front of an extended source of radiation.
As we know the temperature of the reference source emitting the radiation, in the second step the obtained output signal (the indication) can be related to the reference source's temperature (measurement result). The second step includes drift measurement and compensation.
To be correct, calibration of a thermal camera is, strictly, not expressed through temperature. Thermal cameras are sensitive to infrared radiation: therefore, at first you obtain a radiance correspondence, then a relationship between radiance and temperature. For bolometer cameras used by non-R&D customers, radiance is not expressed: only the temperature is provided.
31.3 Camera calibration at FLIR Systems
Without calibration, an infrared camera would not be able to measure either radiance or temperature. At FLIR Systems, the calibration of uncooled microbolometer cameras with a
measurement capability is carried out during both production and service. Cooled cameras with photon detectors are often calibrated by the user with special software. With this type of software, in theory, common handheld uncooled thermal cameras could be calibrated by the user too. However, as this software is not suitable for reporting purposes, most users do not have it. Non-measuring devices that are used for imaging only do not need temperature calibration. Sometimes this is also reflected in camera terminology when talking about infrared or thermal imaging cameras compared with thermography cameras, where the latter are the measuring devices.
The calibration information, no matter if the calibration is done by FLIR Systems or the user, is stored in calibration curves, which are expressed by mathematical functions. As radiation intensity changes with both temperature and the distance between the object and the camera, different curves are generated for different temperature ranges and exchangeable lenses.
31.4 The differences between a calibration performed by a user and that performed directly at FLIR Systems
First, the reference sources that FLIR Systems uses are themselves calibrated and traceable. This means, at each FLIR Systems site performing calibration, that the sources are controlled by an independent national authority. The camera calibration certificate is confirmation of this. It is proof that not only has the calibration been performed by FLIR Systems but that it has also been carried out using calibrated references. Some users own or have access to accredited reference sources, but they are very few in number.
Second, there is a technical difference. When performing a user calibration, the result is often (but not always) not drift compensated. This means that the values do not take into account a possible change in the camera's output when the camera's internal temperature varies. This yields a larger uncertainty. Drift compensation uses data obtained in climate-controlled chambers. All FLIR Systems cameras are drift compensated when they are first delivered to the customer and when they are recalibrated by FLIR Systems service departments.
31.5 Calibration, verification and adjustment
A common misconception is to confuse calibration with verification or adjustment. Indeed, calibration is a prerequisite for verification, which provides confirmation that specified requirements are met. Verification provides objective evidence that a given item fulfills specified requirements. To obtain the verification, defined temperatures (emitted radiation) of calibrated and traceable reference sources are measured. The measurement results, including the deviation, are noted in a table. The verification certificate states that these measurement results meet specified requirements. Sometimes, companies or organizations offer and market this verification certificate as a “calibration certificate.”
Proper verification—and by extension calibration and/or recalibration—can only be achieved when a validated protocol is respected. The process is more than placing the camera in front of blackbodies and checking if the camera output (as temperature, for instance) corresponds to the original calibration table. It is often forgotten that a camera is not sensitive to temperature but to radiation. Furthermore, a camera is an imaging system, not just a single sensor. Consequently, if the optical configuration allowing the camera to "collect" radiance is poor or misaligned, then the "verification" (or calibration or recalibration) is worthless.
For instance, one has to ensure that the distance between the blackbody and the camera as well as the diameter of the blackbody cavity are chosen so as to reduce stray radiation and the size-of-source effect.
To summarize: a validated protocol must comply with the physical laws for radiance, and not only those for temperature.
Calibration is also a prerequisite for adjustment, which is the set of operations carried out on a measuring system such that the system provides prescribed indications corresponding to given values of quantities to be measured, typically obtained from measurement standards. Simplified, adjustment is a manipulation that results in instruments that measure correctly within their specifications. In everyday language, the term “calibration” is widely used instead of “adjustment” for measuring devices.
31.6 Non-uniformity correction
When the thermal camera displays "Calibrating..." it is adjusting for the deviation in response of each individual detector element (pixel). In thermography, this is called a "non-uniformity correction" (NUC). It is an offset update, and the gain remains unchanged.
The European standard EN 16714-3, Non-destructive Testing—Thermographic Testing—Part 3: Terms and Definitions, defines an NUC as “Image correction carried out by the camera software to compensate for different sensitivities of detector elements and other optical and geometrical disturbances.”
During the NUC (the offset update), a shutter (internal flag) is placed in the optical path, and all the detector elements are exposed to the same amount of radiation originating from the shutter. Therefore, in an ideal situation, they should all give the same output signal. However, each individual element has its own response, so the output is not uniform. This deviation from the ideal result is calculated and used to mathematically perform an image correction, which is essentially a correction of the displayed radiation signal. Some cameras do not have an internal flag. In this case, the offset update must be performed manually using special software and an external uniform source of radiation.
An NUC is performed, for example, at start-up, when changing a measurement range, or when the environment temperature changes. Some cameras also allow the user to trigger it manually. This is useful when you have to perform a critical measurement with as little image disturbance as possible.
31.7 Thermal image adjustment (thermal tuning)
Some people use the term “image calibration” when adjusting the thermal contrast and brightness in the image to enhance specific details. During this operation, the temperature interval is set in such a way that all available colors are used to show only (or mainly) the temperatures in the region of interest. The correct term for this manipulation is “thermal image adjustment” or “thermal tuning”, or, in some languages, “thermal image optimization.” You must be in manual mode to undertake this, otherwise the camera will set the lower and upper limits of the displayed temperature interval automatically to the coldest and hottest temperatures in the scene.
Thermographic measurement techniques
32.1 Introduction
An infrared camera measures and images the emitted infrared radiation from an object. The fact that radiation is a function of object surface temperature makes it possible for the camera to calculate and display this temperature.
However, the radiation measured by the camera does not only depend on the temperature of the object but is also a function of the emissivity. Radiation also originates from the surroundings and is reflected in the object. The radiation from the object and the reflected radiation will also be influenced by the absorption of the atmosphere.
To measure temperature accurately, it is therefore necessary to compensate for the effects of a number of different radiation sources. This is done on-line automatically by the camera. The following object parameters must, however, be supplied for the camera:
• The emissivity of the object
• The reflected apparent temperature
• The distance between the object and the camera
• The relative humidity
• Temperature of the atmosphere
32.2 Emissivity
The most important object parameter to set correctly is the emissivity which, in short, is a measure of how much radiation is emitted from the object, compared to that from a perfect blackbody of the same temperature.
Normally, object materials and surface treatments exhibit emissivity ranging from approximately 0.1 to 0.95. A highly polished (mirror) surface falls below 0.1, while an oxidized or painted surface has a higher emissivity. Oil-based paint, regardless of color in the visible spectrum, has an emissivity over 0.9 in the infrared. Human skin exhibits an emissivity 0.97 to 0.98.
Non-oxidized metals represent an extreme case of perfect opacity and high reflexivity, which does not vary greatly with wavelength. Consequently, the emissivity of metals is low – only increasing with temperature. For non-metals, emissivity tends to be high, and decreases with temperature.
32.2.1 Finding the emissivity of a sample
32.2.1.1 Step 1: Determining reflected apparent temperature
Use one of the following two methods to determine reflected apparent temperature:
32.2.1.1.1 Method 1: Direct method
Follow this procedure:
- Look for possible reflection sources, considering that the incident angle = reflection angle (a = b).
Figure 32.1 1 = Reflection source
- If the reflection source is a spot source, modify the source by obstructing it using a piece if cardboard.
Figure 32.2 1 = Reflection source
-
Measure the radiation intensity (= apparent temperature) from the reflection source using the following settings:
-
Emissivity: 1.0
- D_obj : 0
You can measure the radiation intensity using one of the following two methods:
Figure 32.3 1 = Reflection source
Figure 32.4 1 = Reflection source
You can not use a thermocouple to measure reflected apparent temperature, because a thermocouple measures temperature, but apparent temperature is radiation intensity.
32.2.1.1.2 Method 2: Reflector method
Follow this procedure:
- Crumble up a large piece of aluminum foil.
- Uncrumble the aluminum foil and attach it to a piece of cardboard of the same size.
- Put the piece of cardboard in front of the object you want to measure. Make sure that the side with aluminum foil points to the camera.
-
Set the emissivity to 1.0.
-
Measure the apparent temperature of the aluminum foil and write it down. The foil is considered a perfect reflector, so its apparent temperature equals the reflected apparent temperature from the surroundings.
Figure 32.5 Measuring the apparent temperature of the aluminum foil.
32.2.1.2 Step 2: Determining the emissivity
Follow this procedure:
- Select a place to put the sample.
- Determine and set reflected apparent temperature according to the previous procedure.
- Put a piece of electrical tape with known high emissivity on the sample.
- Heat the sample at least 20 K above room temperature. Heating must be reasonably even.
- Focus and auto-adjust the camera, and freeze the image.
- Adjust Level and Span for best image brightness and contrast.
- Set emissivity to that of the tape (usually 0.97).
- Measure the temperature of the tape using one of the following measurement functions:
- Isotherm (helps you to determine both the temperature and how evenly you have heated the sample)
- Spot (simpler)
-
Box Avg (good for surfaces with varying emissivity).
-
Write down the temperature.
- Move your measurement function to the sample surface.
- Change the emissivity setting until you read the same temperature as your previous measurement.
- Write down the emissivity.
Note
- Avoid forced convection
- Look for a thermally stable surrounding that will not generate spot reflections
- Use high quality tape that you know is not transparent, and has a high emissivity you are certain of
- This method assumes that the temperature of your tape and the sample surface are the same. If they are not, your emissivity measurement will be wrong.
32.3 Reflected apparent temperature
This parameter is used to compensate for the radiation reflected in the object. If the emissivity is low and the object temperature relatively far from that of the reflected it will be important to set and compensate for the reflected apparent temperature correctly.
32.4 Distance
The distance is the distance between the object and the front lens of the camera. This parameter is used to compensate for the following two facts:
- That radiation from the target is absorbed by the atmosphere between the object and the camera.
- That radiation from the atmosphere itself is detected by the camera.
32.5 Relative humidity
The camera can also compensate for the fact that the transmittance is also dependent on the relative humidity of the atmosphere. To do this set the relative humidity to the correct value. For short distances and normal humidity the relative humidity can normally be left at a default value of 50%.
32.6 Other parameters
In addition, some cameras and analysis programs from FLIR Systems allow you to compensate for the following parameters:
- Atmospheric temperature – i.e. the temperature of the atmosphere between the camera and the target
- External optics temperature – i.e. the temperature of any external lenses or windows used in front of the camera
- External optics transmittance – i.e. the transmission of any external lenses or windows used in front of the camera
History of infrared technology
Before the year 1800, the existence of the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum wasn't even suspected. The original significance of the infrared spectrum, or simply 'the infrared' as it is often called, as a form of heat radiation is perhaps less obvious today than was at the time of its discovery by Herschel in 1800.
natural_image
Portrait of a man with long hair and a crescent moon in the sky (no text or symbols visible)Figure 33.1 Sir William Herschel (1738–1822)
The discovery was made accidentally during the search for a new optical material. Sir William Herschel – Royal Astronomer to King George III of England, and already famous for his discovery of the planet Uranus – was searching for an optical filter material to reduce the brightness of the sun's image in telescopes during solar observations. While testing different samples of colored glass which gave similar reductions in brightness he was intrigued to find that some of the samples passed very little of the sun's heat, while others passed so much heat that he risked eye damage after only a few seconds' observation.
Herschel was soon convinced of the necessity of setting up a systematic experiment, with the objective of finding a single material that would give the desired reduction in brightness as well as the maximum reduction in heat. He began the experiment by actually repeating Newton's prism experiment, but looking for the heating effect rather than the visual distribution of intensity in the spectrum. He first blackened the bulb of a sensitive mercury-in-glass thermometer with ink, and with this as his radiation detector he proceeded to test the heating effect of the various colors of the spectrum formed on the top of a table by passing sunlight through a glass prism. Other thermometers, placed outside the sun's rays, served as controls.
As the blackened thermometer was moved slowly along the colors of the spectrum, the temperature readings showed a steady increase from the violet end to the red end. This was not entirely unexpected, since the Italian researcher, Landriani, in a similar experiment in 1777 had observed much the same effect. It was Herschel, however, who was the first to recognize that there must be a point where the heating effect reaches a maximum, and that measurements confined to the visible portion of the spectrum failed to locate this point.
natural_image
Portrait engraving of a man with curly hair and formal attire (no text or symbols visible)Figure 33.2 Marsilio Landriani (1746–1815)
Moving the thermometer into the dark region beyond the red end of the spectrum, Herschel confirmed that the heating continued to increase. The maximum point, when he found it, lay well beyond the red end – in what is known today as the 'infrared wavelength:
When Herschel revealed his discovery, he referred to this new portion of the electromagnetic spectrum as the 'thermometrical spectrum'. The radiation itself he sometimes referred to as 'dark heat', or simply 'the invisible rays'. Ironically, and contrary to popular opinion, it wasn't Herschel who originated the term 'infrared'. The word only began to appear in print around 75 years later, and it is still unclear who should receive credit as the originator.
Herschel's use of glass in the prism of his original experiment led to some early controversies with his contemporaries about the actual existence of the infrared wavelengths. Different investigators, in attempting to confirm his work, used various types of glass indiscriminately, having different transparencies in the infrared. Through his later experiments, Herschel was aware of the limited transparency of glass to the newly-discovered thermal radiation, and he was forced to conclude that optics for the infrared would probably be doomed to the use of reflective elements exclusively (i.e. plane and curved mirrors). Fortunately, this proved to be true only until 1830, when the Italian investigator, Melloni, made his great discovery that naturally occurring rock salt (NaCl) – which was available in large enough natural crystals to be made into lenses and prisms – is remarkably transparent to the infrared. The result was that rock salt became the principal infrared optical material, and remained so for the next hundred years, until the art of synthetic crystal growing was mastered in the 1930's.
natural_image
Portrait painting of a man in 19th-century attire seated at a desk with scientific instruments (no visible text or symbols)Figure 33.3 Macedonio Melloni (1798–1854)
Thermometers, as radiation detectors, remained unchallenged until 1829, the year Nobili invented the thermocouple. (Herschel's own thermometer could be read to 0.2 °C (0.036 °F), and later models were able to be read to 0.05 °C (0.09 °F)). Then a breakthrough occurred; Melloni connected a number of thermocouples in series to form the first thermopile. The new device was at least 40 times as sensitive as the best thermometer of the day for detecting heat radiation – capable of detecting the heat from a person standing three meters away.
The first so-called 'heat-picture' became possible in 1840, the result of work by Sir John Herschel, son of the discoverer of the infrared and a famous astronomer in his own right. Based upon the differential evaporation of a thin film of oil when exposed to a heat pattern focused upon it, the thermal image could be seen by reflected light where the interference effects of the oil film made the image visible to the eye. Sir John also managed to obtain primitive record of the thermal image on paper, which he called a 'thermograph'.
natural_image
Portrait of a bearded man in formal attire, seated with hands clasped (no visible text or symbols)Figure 33.4 Samuel P. Langley (1834–1906)
The improvement of infrared-detector sensitivity progressed slowly. Another major break-through, made by Langley in 1880, was the invention of the bolometer. This consisted of a thin blackened strip of platinum connected in one arm of a Wheatstone bridge circuit upon which the infrared radiation was focused and to which a sensitive galvanometer responded. This instrument is said to have been able to detect the heat from a cow at a distance of 400 meters.
An English scientist, Sir James Dewar, first introduced the use of liquefied gases as cooling agents (such as liquid nitrogen with a temperature of -196^ ( -320.8^ )) in low temperature research. In 1892 he invented a unique vacuum insulating container in which it is possible to store liquefied gases for entire days. The common ‘thermos bottle’, used for storing hot and cold drinks, is based upon his invention.
Between the years 1900 and 1920, the inventors of the world 'discovered' the infrared. Many patents were issued for devices to detect personnel, artillery, aircraft, ships – and even icebergs. The first operating systems, in the modern sense, began to be developed during the 1914–18 war, when both sides had research programs devoted to the military exploitation of the infrared. These programs included experimental systems for enemy intrusion/detection, remote temperature sensing, secure communications, and 'flying torpedo' guidance. An infrared search system tested during this period was able to detect an approaching airplane at a distance of 1.5 km (0.94 miles), or a person more than 300 meters (984 ft.) away.
The most sensitive systems up to this time were all based upon variations of the bolometer idea, but the period between the two wars saw the development of two revolutionary new infrared detectors: the image converter and the photon detector. At first, the image converter received the greatest attention by the military, because it enabled an observer for the first time in history to literally 'see in the dark'. However, the sensitivity of the image converter was limited to the near infrared wavelengths, and the most interesting military targets (i.e. enemy soldiers) had to be illuminated by infrared search beams. Since this involved the risk of giving away the observer's position to a similarly-equipped enemy observer, it is understandable that military interest in the image converter eventually faded.
The tactical military disadvantages of so-called 'active' (i.e. search beam-equipped) thermal imaging systems provided impetus following the 1939–45 war for extensive secret military infrared-research programs into the possibilities of developing 'passive' (no search beam) systems around the extremely sensitive photon detector. During this period, military secrecy regulations completely prevented disclosure of the status of infrared-imaging technology. This secrecy only began to be lifted in the middle of the 1950's, and from that time adequate thermal-imaging devices finally began to be available to civilian science and industry.
Theory of thermography
34.1 Introduction
The subjects of infrared radiation and the related technique of thermography are still new to many who will use an infrared camera. In this section the theory behind thermography will be given.
34.2 The electromagnetic spectrum
The electromagnetic spectrum is divided arbitrarily into a number of wavelength regions, called bands, distinguished by the methods used to produce and detect the radiation. There is no fundamental difference between radiation in the different bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. They are all governed by the same laws and the only differences are those due to differences in wavelength.
other
| Segment | Value | |---|---| | 1 | 10 nm | | 2 | 100 nm | | 3 | 1 μm | | 4 | 10 μm | | 5 | 100 μm | | 6 | 1 m | | 7 | 10 m | | 8 | 100 m | | 9 | 1 km | | 10 | 2 μm | | 11 | 13 μm |Figure 34.1 The electromagnetic spectrum. 1: X-ray; 2: UV; 3: Visible; 4: IR; 5: Microwaves; 6: Radiowaves.
Thermography makes use of the infrared spectral band. At the short-wavelength end the boundary lies at the limit of visual perception, in the deep red. At the long-wavelength end it merges with the microwave radio wavelengths, in the millimeter range.
The infrared band is often further subdivided into four smaller bands, the boundaries of which are also arbitrarily chosen. They include: the near infrared (0.75–3 m), the middle infrared (3–6 m), the far infrared (6–15 m) and the extreme infrared (15–100 m). Although the wavelengths are given in m (micrometers), other units are often still used to measure wavelength in this spectral region, e.g. nanometer (nm) and Ångström (Å).
The relationships between the different wavelength measurements is:
$$ 1 0 0 0 0 \mathrm {\AA} = 1 0 0 0 \mathrm{nm} = 1 \mu = 1 \mu \mathrm{m} $$
34.3 Blackbody radiation
A blackbody is defined as an object which absorbs all radiation that impinges on it at any wavelength. The apparent misnomer black relating to an object emitting radiation is explained by Kirchhoff's Law (after Gustav Robert Kirchhoff, 1824–1887), which states that a body capable of absorbing all radiation at any wavelength is equally capable in the emission of radiation.
natural_image
Portrait of a bearded man in formal 19th-century attire (no text or symbols visible)Figure 34.2 Gustav Robert Kirchhoff (1824–1887)
The construction of a blackbody source is, in principle, very simple. The radiation characteristics of an aperture in an isotherm cavity made of an opaque absorbing material represents almost exactly the properties of a blackbody. A practical application of the principle to the construction of a perfect absorber of radiation consists of a box that is light tight except for an aperture in one of the sides. Any radiation which then enters the hole is scattered and absorbed by repeated reflections so only an infinitesimal fraction can possibly escape. The blackness which is obtained at the aperture is nearly equal to a blackbody and almost perfect for all wavelengths.
By providing such an isothermal cavity with a suitable heater it becomes what is termed a cavity radiator. An isothermal cavity heated to a uniform temperature generates blackbody radiation, the characteristics of which are determined solely by the temperature of the cavity. Such cavity radiators are commonly used as sources of radiation in temperature reference standards in the laboratory for calibrating thermographic instruments, such as a FLIR Systems camera for example.
If the temperature of blackbody radiation increases to more than 525°C (977°F), the source begins to be visible so that it appears to the eye no longer black. This is the incipient red heat temperature of the radiator, which then becomes orange or yellow as the temperature increases further. In fact, the definition of the so-called color temperature of an object is the temperature to which a blackbody would have to be heated to have the same appearance.
Now consider three expressions that describe the radiation emitted from a blackbody.
34.3.1 Planck's law
natural_image
Portrait of a man in formal 19th-century attire, no visible text or symbolsFigure 34.3 Max Planck (1858–1947)
Max Planck (1858–1947) was able to describe the spectral distribution of the radiation from a blackbody by means of the following formula:
$$ W _ {\lambda b} = \frac {2 \pi h c ^ {2}}{\lambda^ {5} \left(e ^ {h c / \lambda k T} - 1\right)} \times 1 0 ^ {- 6} [ W a t t / m ^ {2}, \mu m ] $$
where:
| W_ b | Blackbody spectral radiant emittance at wavelength . |
| c | Velocity of light = 3 × ^8 h/s |
| h Planck's constant = 6.6 × 10 | ^-34 Joule sec. |
| k Boltzmann's constant = 1.4 × | 10 ^-23 Joule/K. |
| T Absolute temperature (K) of a | blackbody. |
| Wavelength ( m). |
Note The factor 10-6 is used since spectral emittance in the curves is expressed in Watt/m², μm.
Planck's formula, when plotted graphically for various temperatures, produces a family of curves. Following any particular Planck curve, the spectral emittance is zero at = 0 , then increases rapidly to a maximum at a wavelength and after passing it approaches zero again at very long wavelengths. The higher the temperature, the shorter the wavelength at which maximum occurs.

34.3.2 Wien's displacement law
By differentiating Planck's formula with respect to , and finding the maximum, we have:
$$ \lambda_ {\max} = \frac {2 8 9 8}{T} [ \mu m ] $$
This is Wien's formula (after Wilhelm Wien, 1864–1928), which expresses mathematically the common observation that colors vary from red to orange or yellow as the temperature of a thermal radiator increases. The wavelength of the color is the same as the wavelength calculated for _max . A good approximation of the value of for a given blackbody temperature is obtained by applying the rule-of-thumb 3 000/T m. Thus, a very hot star such as Sirius (11 000 K), emitting bluish-white light, radiates with the peak of spectral radiant emittance occurring within the invisible ultraviolet spectrum, at wavelength 0.27 m.

The sun (approx. 6 000 K) emits yellow light, peaking at about 0.5 m in the middle of the visible light spectrum.
At room temperature (300 K) the peak of radiant emittance lies at 9.7 m, in the far infrared, while at the temperature of liquid nitrogen (77 K) the maximum of the almost insignificant amount of radiant emittance occurs at 38 m, in the extreme infrared wavelengths.

34.3.3 Stefan-Boltzmann's law
By integrating Planck's formula from = 0 to = , we obtain the total radiant emittance (W_b) of a blackbody:
$$ W _ {b} = \sigma T ^ {4} [ \mathrm{Watt/m} ^ {2} ] $$
This is the Stefan-Boltzmann formula (after Josef Stefan, 1835–1893, and Ludwig Boltzmann, 1844–1906), which states that the total emissive power of a blackbody is proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature. Graphically represents the area below the Planck curve for a particular temperature. It can be shown that the radiant emittance in the interval = 0 max is only 25% of the total, which represents about the amount of the sun's radiation which lies inside the visible light spectrum.

Using the Stefan-Boltzmann formula to calculate the power radiated by the human body, at a temperature of 300 K and an external surface area of approx. we obtain 1 kW. This power loss could not be sustained if it were not for the compensating absorption of radiation from surrounding surfaces, at room temperatures which do not vary too drastically from the temperature of the body – or, of course, the addition of clothing.
34.3.4 Non-blackbody emitters
So far, only blackbody radiators and blackbody radiation have been discussed. However, real objects almost never comply with these laws over an extended wavelength region – although they may approach the blackbody behavior in certain spectral intervals. For example, a certain type of white paint may appear perfectly white in the visible light spectrum but becomes distinctly gray at about 2 m, and beyond 3 m it is almost black.
There are three processes which can occur that prevent a real object from acting like a blackbody: a fraction of the incident radiation may be absorbed, a fraction may be reflected, and a fraction may be transmitted. Since all of these factors are more or less wavelength dependent, the subscript is used to imply the spectral dependence of their definitions. Thus:
- The spectral absorptance = the ratio of the spectral radiant power absorbed by an object to that incident upon it.
- The spectral reflectance = the ratio of the spectral radiant power reflected by an object to that incident upon it.
- The spectral transmittance = the ratio of the spectral radiant power transmitted through an object to that incident upon it.
The sum of these three factors must always add up to the whole at any wavelength, so we have the relation:
$$ \alpha_ {\lambda} + \rho_ {\lambda} + \tau_ {\lambda} = 1 $$
For opaque materials =0 and the relation simplifies to:
$$ \varepsilon_ {\lambda} + \rho_ {\lambda} = 1 $$
Another factor, called the emissivity, is required to describe the fraction of the radiant emittance of a blackbody produced by an object at a specific temperature. Thus, we have the definition:
The spectral emissivity the ratio of the spectral radiant power from an object to that from a blackbody at the same temperature and wavelength.
Expressed mathematically, this can be written as the ratio of the spectral emittance of the object to that of a blackbody as follows:
$$ \varepsilon_ {\lambda} = \frac {W _ {\lambda o}}{W _ {\lambda b}} $$
Generally speaking, there are three types of radiation source, distinguished by the ways in which the spectral emittance of each varies with wavelength.
- A blackbody, for which = = 1
- A graybody, for which = = constant less than 1
- A selective radiator, for which varies with wavelength
According to Kirchhoff's law, for any material the spectral emissivity and spectral absorptance of a body are equal at any specified temperature and wavelength. That is:
$$ \varepsilon_ {\lambda} = \alpha_ {\lambda} $$
From this we obtain, for an opaque material (since = 1 ):
$$ \varepsilon_ {\lambda} + \rho_ {\lambda} = 1 $$
For highly polished materials, approaches zero, so that for a perfectly reflecting material (i.e. a perfect mirror) we have:
$$ \rho_ {\lambda} = 1 $$
For a graybody radiator, the Stefan-Boltzmann formula becomes:
$$ W = \varepsilon \sigma T ^ {4} [ \mathrm{Watt/m} ^ {2} ] $$
This states that the total emissive power of a graybody is the same as a blackbody at the same temperature reduced in proportion to the value of from the graybody.

34.4 Infrared semi-transparent materials
Consider now a non-metallic, semi-transparent body – let us say, in the form of a thick flat plate of plastic material. When the plate is heated, radiation generated within its volume must work its way toward the surfaces through the material in which it is partially absorbed. Moreover, when it arrives at the surface, some of it is reflected back into the interior. The back-reflected radiation is again partially absorbed, but some of it arrives at the other surface, through which most of it escapes; part of it is reflected back again. Although the progressive reflections become weaker and weaker they must all be added up when the total emittance of the plate is sought. When the resulting geometrical series is summed, the effective emissivity of a semi-transparent plate is obtained as:
$$ \varepsilon_ {\lambda} = \frac {(1 - \rho_ {\lambda}) (1 - \tau_ {\lambda})}{1 - \rho_ {\lambda} \tau_ {\lambda}} $$
When the plate becomes opaque this formula is reduced to the single formula:
$$ \varepsilon_ {\lambda} = 1 - \rho_ {\lambda} $$
This last relation is a particularly convenient one, because it is often easier to measure reflectance than to measure emissivity directly.
The measurement formula
As already mentioned, when viewing an object, the camera receives radiation not only from the object itself. It also collects radiation from the surroundings reflected via the object surface. Both these radiation contributions become attenuated to some extent by the atmosphere in the measurement path. To this comes a third radiation contribution from the atmosphere itself.
This description of the measurement situation, as illustrated in the figure below, is so far a fairly true description of the real conditions. What has been neglected could for instance be sun light scattering in the atmosphere or stray radiation from intense radiation sources outside the field of view. Such disturbances are difficult to quantify, however, in most cases they are fortunately small enough to be neglected. In case they are not negligible, the measurement configuration is likely to be such that the risk for disturbance is obvious, at least to a trained operator. It is then his responsibility to modify the measurement situation to avoid the disturbance e.g. by changing the viewing direction, shielding off intense radiation sources etc.
Accepting the description above, we can use the figure below to derive a formula for the calculation of the object temperature from the calibrated camera output.

Figure 35.1 A schematic representation of the general thermographic measurement situation.1: Surroundings; 2: Object; 3: Atmosphere; 4: Camera
Assume that the received radiation power W from a blackbody source of temperature T_source on short distance generates a camera output signal that is proportional to the power input (power linear camera). We can then write (Equation 1):
$$ U _ {\text { source }} = C W (T _ {\text { source }}) $$
or, with simplified notation:
$$ U _ {\text { source }} = C W _ {\text { source }} $$
where C is a constant.
Should the source be a graybody with emittance , the received radiation would consequently be W_source .
We are now ready to write the three collected radiation power terms:
-
Emission from the object = ετW, where ε is the emittance of the object and τ is the transmittance of the atmosphere. The object temperature is T
-
Reflected emission from ambient sources = (1 - ) where (1 - ) is the reflectance of the object. The ambient sources have the temperature T. It has here been assumed that the temperature is the same for all emitting surfaces within the halfsphere seen from a point on the object surface. This is of course sometimes a simplification of the true situation. It is, however, a necessary simplification in order to derive a workable formula, and can - at least theoretically - be given a value that represents an efficient temperature of a complex surrounding.
Note also that we have assumed that the emittance for the surroundings = 1. This is correct in accordance with Kirchhoff's law: All radiation impinging on the surrounding surfaces will eventually be absorbed by the same surfaces. Thus the emittance = 1. (Note though that the latest discussion requires the complete sphere around the object to be considered.)
- Emission from the atmosphere = (1 - τ)W where (1 - τ) is the emittance of the atmosphere. The temperature of the atmosphere is T
The total received radiation power can now be written (Equation 2):
$$ W _ {t o t} = \varepsilon \tau W _ {o b j} + (1 - \varepsilon) \tau W _ {r e f l} + (1 - \tau) W _ {a t m} $$
We multiply each term by the constant C of Equation 1 and replace the CW products by the corresponding U according to the same equation, and get (Equation 3):
$$ U _ {t o t} - \varepsilon \tau U _ {o b j} + (1 - \varepsilon) \tau U _ {r c f l} + (1 - \tau) U _ {a t m} $$
Solve Equation 3 for _obj (Equation 4):
$$ U _ {o b j} = \frac {1}{\varepsilon \tau} U _ {t o t} - \frac {1 - \varepsilon}{\varepsilon} U _ {r c f l} - \frac {1 - \tau}{\varepsilon \tau} U _ {a t m} $$
This is the general measurement formula used in all the FLIR Systems thermographic equipment. The voltages of the formula are:
Table 35.1 Voltages
| U_obj | Calculated camera output voltage for a blackbody of temperature T_i.e. a voltage that can be directly converted into true requested object temperature. |
| U_tot | Measured camera output voltage for the actual case. |
| U_refl | Theoretical camera output voltage for a blackbody of temperature T_refl according to the calibration. |
| U_atm | Theoretical camera output voltage for a blackbody of temperature T_atm according to the calibration. |
The operator has to supply a number of parameter values for the calculation:
• the object emittance ε,
• the relative humidity,
- T_atm
- object distance (D_obj)
- the (effective) temperature of the object surroundings, or the reflected ambient temperature T_eff , and
- the temperature of the atmosphere _atm
This task could sometimes be a heavy burden for the operator since there are normally no easy ways to find accurate values of emittance and atmospheric transmittance for the
actual case. The two temperatures are normally less of a problem provided the surroundings do not contain large and intense radiation sources.
A natural question in this connection is: How important is it to know the right values of these parameters? It could though be of interest to get a feeling for this problem already here by looking into some different measurement cases and compare the relative magnitudes of the three radiation terms. This will give indications about when it is important to use correct values of which parameters.
The figures below illustrates the relative magnitudes of the three radiation contributions for three different object temperatures, two emittances, and two spectral ranges: SW and LW. Remaining parameters have the following fixed values:
• = 0.88
• T_refl = +20^ (+68^)
- T_atm = +20^ (+68^)
It is obvious that measurement of low object temperatures are more critical than measuring high temperatures since the 'disturbing' radiation sources are relatively much stronger in the first case. Should also the object emittance be low, the situation would be still more difficult.
We have finally to answer a question about the importance of being allowed to use the calibration curve above the highest calibration point, what we call extrapolation. Imagine that we in a certain case measure _tot 4.5 volts. The highest calibration point for the camera was in the order of 4.1 volts, a value unknown to the operator. Thus, even if the object has been to be a blackbody, i.e. _tot , we are actually performing extrapolation of the calibration curve when converting 4.5 volts into temperature.
Let us now assume that the object is not black, it has an emittance of 0.75, and the transmittance is 0.92. We also assume that the two second terms of Equation 4 amount to 0.5 volts together. Computation of by means of Equation 4 then results in 14.5 / 0.75
/ 0.92 - 0.5 = 6.0. This is a rather extreme extrapolation, particularly when considering that the video amplifier might limit the output to 5 volts! Note, though, that the application of the calibration curve is a theoretical procedure where no electronic or other limitations exist.
We trust that if there had been no signal limitations in the camera, and if it had been calibrated far beyond 5 volts, the resulting curve would have been very much the same as our real curve extrapolated beyond 4.1 volts, provided the calibration algorithm is based on radiation physics, like the FLIR Systems algorithm. Of course there must be a limit to such extrapolations.
