Can You See Toxic Emissions with Thermal Cameras?
Most gases—methane, sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), carbon monoxide, and hundreds of others—are invisible to the naked eye, just like the gases in the air around us. But can they be seen with a thermal camera? The answer is yes—sometimes. Most thermal imagers can’t directly detect gases, but Optical Gas Imaging cameras are highly specialized thermal cameras that are spectrally filtered to visualize specific gas emissions.
