The Neutrino LC OGI Optical Gas Imaging Camera
Imaging company Teledyne FLIR recently announced their latest Neutrino LC OGI optical gas imaging camera module, an ITAR-free mid-wave infrared (MWIR) imager, made within the USA, designed to detect, measure, and visualize harmful gas emissions. The Neutrino LC OGI is ideal for compact, low-power applications like UAVs, small gimbals, handheld devices, and fixed-mounted leak detection systems.
The Neutrino utilizes the MWIR frequency to detect and discover methane and other hydrocarbons, including Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). The camera has two modes- a 640×512 VGA resolution mode with as much as eight times digital zoom, maximizing scene awareness, or bin mode, which boosts sensitivity to a formidable <20 millikelvins (mK), making a crisp, high-contrast image perfect for complex applications like leak detection.
Dan Walker, vp of product management at Teledyne FLIR, said, “The detection and mitigation of harmful hydrocarbon and chemical leaks into the air represents a big priority for regulators and impacted industries. The Neutrino LC OGI is the low-risk and high-performing OEM camera module for integrators developing methane monitoring and other gas imaging solutions today.”
The camera is extremely optimized for SWaP (Size, Weight, and Power) and features Teledyne FLIR’s High Operating Temperature (HOT) FPA technology and a quiet, low-vibration, and long-life linear micro cooler. FLIRr’s longstanding fame for reliability and their 2-year warranty make it a robust pick for integrators creating products for processing facilities, refineries, pipelines, tank farms, and well pads for the oil and gas industry. Integrators may also have access to Teledyne FLIR’s technical support teams, a full suite of hardware accessories, and a software development kit to cut back development costs.
