FLIR A700 Automation Thermal Camera

Fitted with an advanced smart sensor configuration, edge computing, and an Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), the FLIR A700 Advanced Smart Sensor Automation Thermal Camera is an infrared-imaging automation camera ideal for complex remote monitoring, alarming, and analytics objectives. It is available with a selection of lenses and a range of optional extras.

Thermal Imaging

The FLIR A700 Advanced Smart Sensor Automation Thermal Camera delivers advanced thermal imaging. To this end, it offers a 640 x 480px IR resolution. It also features a precision motorised focus which ensures consistent, accurate temperature readings of both near and far away objects. Temperatures between -20°C and 2000°C can be measured to an accuracy of ±2°C/2%. It is perfect for monitoring critical infrastructure, assessing product quality, and detecting overheating components. It can even be used to identify elevated skin temperature alongside other temperature screening tools.

Advanced Smart Sensor Configuration

FLIR’s advanced smart sensor configuration is perfect for those who require built-in analytics. Cameras with this configuration allow you to transfer complete, actional results to your own system. The advanced smart sensor configuration supports the following functions and features:

• Built-in spot analytics function
• Built-in area analytics function
• Built-in alarms
• Isotherms
• Iso-coverage
• Digital I/O
• Power over Ethernet (PoE)
• Modbus TCP
• Built-in web interface
• Motorised focus
• Built-in fault diagnostics
• REST-API
• MQTT
• Modbus TCP Master
• Pan and tilt support
• Built-in line analytics function
• Built-in polygon analytics function
• Multi-image streaming
• Compressed 16-bit image streaming
• External black body correction
• Optional IP66- or IP67-rated design
• Optional visual camera with MSX
• Optional Wi-Fi

Analytical & Alarm Functions

The FLIR A700’s advanced smart sensor configuration equips it with a range of useful alarm and analytical features:

• FSX® (Flexible Scene Enhancement) technology: increases the contrast in even-temperature scenes and enhances detail in low light
• Polygon line function: improves definition in areas of interest and object analysis
• Compressed radiometric streaming allows footage to be shared over Wi-Fi; it also allows multiple cameras to be connected via Wi-Fi
• Adjustable temperature alarms

Easy Integration

Unrivalled network connectivity and built-in computing options provide seamless integration into new and existing networks. It may be integrated into REST API over XML or JSON web systems. Furthermore, onboard Wi-Fi (optional), Modbus TCP, and Ethernet/IP simplify integration into HMI/SCADA systems and the Modbus TCP Master also enables integration into analogue and digital industrial systems as it offers superior I/O control. Finally, an MQTT protocol ensures the A700 is ready for digitisation.

A reliable, flexible, powerful temperature-measuring automation camera, the FLIR A700 Advanced Smart Sensor Automation Thermal Camera is suitable for a range of complex analytical/alarm applications.
