Infrared cameras can be used to monitor the temperature of electrical wiring and connections, but also to see exactly where a door or window is drafting. At Eleshop we have infrared cameras from the very well-known, but often expensive, brand Flir, but also cameras from more affordable brands such as Guide and UNI-T.

The infrared camera

Guide PC210

The performance and quality of this thermal camera can easily be compared with well-known brands like Flir. Especially the excellent price/quality ratio stands out. Using both the superb IR resolution of 256x192 combined with the information obtained from its visible light camera, this PC210 delivers crisp clear thermal images. Besides the excellent sensor, this camera offers other important features: for example 1 second boot time, auto hot & cold spot tracking, an alarm function, a flashlight, and a laser. This camera can be considered to be very sturdy as it has an IP54 rating and has been drop-tested up to 2m. It can be mounted on a tripod because it features a 1/4-inch mount connector on the handle-bottom. Using PotPlayer it is possible to view live IR video over USB-C.
