Calibration And General Maintenance Service
All FLIR infrared cameras are precision instruments that are factory calibrated to record the best possible thermal images and non-contact temperature measurements. Moreover, electronic stabilization circuitry helps maintain this calibration as temperature varies. Nevertheless, electronic component aging over time can cause calibration shift. This means that your FLIR camera should be checked periodically for measurement accuracy, and recalibrated as needed.
Why Calibration is so important?
– Cameras and detectors are aging.
– Optic system including detector window can overtime be polluted by dust / dirt – can effect reading.
– Measurement errors in the field cannot be detected easily.
– Only FLIR Service Centers are able to recalibrate FLIR Thermography cameras.
– Accordingly calibration will reset camera close to the set of temperatures making measurement faults less likely within
next time period for all temperature Ranges up to 1500C degree and all lenses.
– FLIR Service Calibration is annually calibrated and traceable to world-wide standard
– An Accuracy protocol to be performed after every Calibration to make sure is done correctly.
– Image improvements, Kill bad pixels, perform gain mapping to improve image quality.
– During General maintenance a full operational check will be done includes performing NUC, diagnose tests.
– During General maintenance, fusion, MSX calibration, laser alignment, minor repairs.
– Other Calibration Labs are able to do an accuracy check for FLIR camera manually only by measuring couple of heat
sources and comparing the results so it is NOT Calibration.
– Other Calibration labs do NOT have an access for FLIR camera service web so they will NOT be able to recalibrate
the camera and correct the camera error.
– All 14 Points Check which FLIR offer like (Fusion, MSX Calibration, laser alignment, Gain Mapping, pixel killing,
Diagnostics Tests ……) can NOT be done by other service labs.
– Other labs are NOT able to perform any repair in case it is needed.
