The Hughes Probeye Infrared Viewer is a highly sensitve, hand-held infrared imager which presents, in its observer's eyepiece, a detailled thermal picture of the entire scene within the field of view. By clearly showing temperature differences between closely adjacent objects, and between objects and background, the probeye infrared viewer quickly and accurately locates sources of heat. The instrument is useful for energy audits and conservation and also valuable for police and fire units in performing their duties. The Probeye infrared viewer is comprised essentially of an optical system, scanning mechanism, an infrared detector and cryostat assembly, signal processing electronics, and a visual display. These elements, together with a power supply consisting of two rechargeable NiCad batteries, are housed in a cast aluminum, weather-resistant enclosure. Infrared detector cooling is done with argon gas supplied by a small, high-pressure cylinder fastened to the enclosure underside. The Probeye infrared viewer is conveniently portable and completely self-contained. With fully charged batteries and fully pressurized cylinder, the instrument can be operated continuously for about four hours. - Field of view: 18 horizontal x 7,5 vertical - Horizontal and vertical resolution: 2.18 milliradians - Frame rate: 20 frames per second typically - Temperature resolution minimum: 0.1 C - Spectral region: 3 to 5,4 micron - Detector type: photovoltaic; indium antimonide - 4 cylinders (no actual test certificate, please check your local legal requirements!!) All together in an extremely strong carrying case. Check it out on http:// /photos/andyi/2882657616/ (Probeye infrared viewer model 649 was posted and is owned by: Brent Harrington) |
