FLIR C5 Compact Thermal Camera

Product Information

As far as the temperature reading goes, you can have the center spot value and then you can add the coldest and the hottest spot and they can all appear simultaneously on the screen.

Same thing with sensitivity, the C2 compact thermal camera has just a 0.10 C sensitivity compared to 0.05 for the C5. Both cameras have an internal memory, but the C5 can hold 5000 images while the Flir C2 can only hold 500. The battery life has also doubled on the C5 at 4 hours instead of 2. The Flir C5 is also waterproof and dustproof with an IP54 rating and has a larger LCD screen size with a 3.5″ diagonal.

EV Test Equipment

Let’s have a look at the Flir E4 vs Flir C2. While they may have the same IR Resolution and MSX technology (something that is available on most Flir thermal imaging cameras), the same type of USB connectivity, the Flir e4 compact thermal imaging camera has a wider temperature measurement range between -4° F to 482°F (-20° to 250°C). Also, even though the thermal resolution is identical, the E4 just seems to have better picture quality during use. The FLIR C3-X is a 3-in-1 tool featuring a thermal camera, digital camera, and flashlight. The 128 × 96 (12,288 pixel) resolution thermal imager has an expanded temperature range of -20 to 300°C (-4 to 572°F), a significant upgrade to the original FLIR C2. It’s the entry-level Cx-Series camera offered by FLIR, but still provides powerful features like FLIR Ignite and MSX, and professional reporting capabilities for documenting problems and repairs with images using FLIR Thermal Studio. This thermal-imaging camera also connects to your phone but provides more resolution (320 x 240 pixels) as well as higher sensitivity (-40˚F to 626˚F) than the Flir One – even the Pro version. And while that pushes up the price, it does make it a great choice for contractors, engineers, inspectors, and others looking for more detailed images. Both devices come with a visible light camera and IR sensor and will offer the MSX image enhancement module. Exceptional Thermal Clarity: Experience thermal imaging in high definition with the FLIR C5. Its advanced sensor technology captures crisp, clear thermal details, enabling you to identify potential issues and make informed decisions with unprecedented precision.

Versatile Applications: From electrical diagnostics to building inspections, the FLIR C5 adapts to your professional needs. Uncover hidden problems, detect anomalies, and troubleshoot with confidence, making it an indispensable tool across various industries. Both cameras have the same IR resolution, fixed internal memory and accuracy. The Flir E4 has a 0.15 sensitivity instead of 0.10 on the C3. Manual focus mode was not added this time either to the camera, but the IR resolution is so high that you won’t miss this feature. FLIR C5 – Temperature Range, Accuracy Excessive DC current on an RCD-protecting AC supply could result in the failure to trip when an AC fault occurs. For full EV verification, the DL9130EV can be switched to full Auto EV mode. It is nevertheless a noticeably higher resolution than the device’s immediate predecessor, the IR0102, which had a 32 x 32-pixel resolution. As a low-priced device, adding this to your toolkit is a lot less painful than some of the devices on this list, and with fuel prices on the rise, locating leaks (an ideal task for this adapter) could cover the cost surprisingly soon. How thermal imaging cameras work

Flir C3-X vs Flir C5

The C2 has just a micro USB port while the C5 has USB and Wi-fi connectivity together with the cloud link. The temperature range on the C5 is much wider, because the C2 can only measure hot spots and cold spots between 13 ->302°F( -10 to 150°) while the C5’s range spans between -4 to 752°F (-20 to 400°C). For the most part, the best thermal-imaging cameras work like regular ones, except that the image sensor detects invisible IR light and it is translated to a visual “thermogram”. This is what you see through the creature’s perspective views in The Predator and Prey. Beyond the visible spectrum, there is an unseen world of heat radiation. Arty infrared film photographs aside, the practical uses of thermal imaging devices – also known as infrared thermal imagers – traditionally belonged only to military and professional budgets. From here on the differences are more subtle: The Flir C5 has 1-touch Level / Span where you can tap on an object to highlight it, while the C3-X doesn’t have that feature. The C5 also offers 2 extra color palettes: Lava and Arctic.
