Infrared Cameras Incorporated (ICI) launched its APEX 200, a new IoT solution helping industrial and power generation facilities protect against equipment failure. The APEX 200 provides continuous temperature monitoring, hot spot detection and automated alerting capabilities, which helps organizations ensure machines are operating at full capacity.
Designed to be compact, yet robust, the APEX 200 is ideal for tough-to-reach applications such as vents, man-holes and electrical equipment. The camera offers multiple interface protocols and is suitable for Internet of Things (IoT) integrations. It is also designed with Wi-Fi support, automatic alarms and real-time video streaming.
“One of the greatest advantages of using thermal imaging cameras is seeing what is invisible to the naked eye,” said Gary Strahan, chief executive officer at ICI. “The APEX 200 is an innovative Process Control thermal imager that provides a large thermal detector with unsurpassed sensitivity, when compared to any other product on the market. It can help organizations remain both safe and efficient.”
The APEX 200 is suitable for hard-to-reach places, beneficial for industrial operations and power generation. It utilizes both radiometric (temperature) thermal imaging as well as visible light capabilities for fixed mount low light, even enclosed applications.
Compact and easy to install, the APEX 200 features a 256 x 192 thermal detector and a built-in 1920 x 1080 visible camera. It is suitable for a wide variety of fixed-point applications including monitoring high voltage cabinets, gasification reactors, as well as iron and steel processing.
Features include:
- Connects to monitoring systems, such as NVR, etc.
- Compatible with multiple interface protocols
- FTP file sharing and SMTP email support
- Central spot, hot spot and cold spot tracing
- Up to 16 points/16 lines/16 areas of temperature analysis
- High temperature measuring
- Alarm threshold settings
