  • NFPA 70B 2023: New Guidelines for Electric Inspections

    Every three to five years, The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) updates NFPA 70B, a set of guidelines for creating an effective electrical preventive maintenance (EPM) program commonly used in industrial plants, commercial buildings, and large residential complexes.

  • Design Student Incorporates Teledyne FLIR Thermal Imaging into Concept for Search & Rescue Device

    First responders know that the first few minutes are critical when responding to a drowning incident—the longer the victim is in the water, the less chance there is of recovering them alive. That’s why Jenny Johansson, design student at the Umea Institute of Design in Sweden, came up with SORA, or Search Optimization and Rescue Assistance: a device that would incorporate both sonar and thermal imaging to begin the search for drowning victims as soon as responders reach the scene.

  • BattleBots Uses FLIR Cameras to Give Their Audience a New View

    This season of BattleBots features a new way to view the action thanks to FLIR T1020 and FLIR C5 cameras provided by Teledyne FLIR.

  • Cut Back Your Power Bills by Finding Energy Leaks with the FLIR ONE® Edge Pro

    Are you losing money out the window this winter? Whether it’s your home or a small business you’re trying to keep heated, anything from air leaks to poor insulation could be responsible for up to half of your total energy bill each month. And with energy prices on the rise, those higher electric and natural gas bills can be tough to swallow.

  • Teledyne FLIR Announces FLIR ONE Edge Pro – The First Truly Wireless Mobile Infrared Camera

    Teledyne FLIR, part of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, today announced its FLIR ONE® Edge Pro, a wireless thermal-visible camera for mobile devices. Unlike previous models, the reimagined FLIR ONE Edge Pro doesn’t need to be physically connected to its companion mobile device nor does it have separate models for specific operating systems, providing maximum flexibility for thermal inspections.

  • Thermal imaging at Mach 1.4 - improving aircraft performance at the Aircraft Research Association

    Aircraft Research Association (ARA) works on innovative projects for the world’s major commercial aircraft and defence manufacturers. Using Teledyne FLIR technology, it recently set out to test a long-term theory that could make long-haul flights more efficient as countries move towards net zero.

  • Best Filtering Practices For Accurate Fired Furnace Tube Measurement

    Thermal imaging is an ideal non-contact inspection tool for tubes inside a working oil-refining furnace, but performing temperature measurement through flames is challenging. Fortunately, new filtering techniques are improving the accuracy of such measurements. 

  • Monitoring For Thermal Runaway To Prevent Fire In Electric Vehicle Battery Modules

    As the individual battery modules are connected, current will begin to flow between the components. Often, this current flow creates an increase in the temperature of the cells and/or modules. As the temperature increases, the voltage within the system will lower and result in an increase in the current, elevating the temperature even further. This cycle of increasing temperature is known as “thermal runaway”

  • U.S. Army Awards $21.8M Production Contract to FLIR Systems for Nerve Agent Disclosure Spray

    FLIR Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLIR) announced it has been awarded a full-rate production option worth $21.8 million on an indefinite-delivery/ indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with the United States (U.S.) Army. FLIR will deliver its Agentase™ C2 disclosure spray to detect G- and V-series nerve agents, highly toxic chemical warfare agents. The contract will support the Army’s Contamination Indicator/Decontamination Assurance System (CIDAS) program, a ‘program of record’ within the Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Defense (JPEO-CBRND).

  • Endangered Species Day 2020: Eyes of the Rhino

    As an organization, FLIR continues to be at the forefront of conservation initiatives, such as Kifaru Rising, a multi-year collaborative project with the World Wildlife Fund to end rhino poaching in Kenya. Sadly, wildlife poaching is not limited to one place, requiring further efforts to save endangered species. Recently, FLIR became involved in the protection and support of Munu the Rhino.
