INDU-SCAN base – Thermography Automation Solution for Industrial Applications

A solution that can be customised for continuous use in industrial applications
INDU-SCAN base is a universal turnkey thermography automation solution integrating up to three thermography cameras (VarioCAM® HD series or TarisIR® mini) using Power over Ethernet (PoE). The cameras have the flexibility to be configured to meet the requirements of the measuring task to be carried out. This includes camera parameters such as resolution, frame rate, measuring range and suitable infrared lens, plus accessory components. The software facilitates convenient remote control and configuration of the cameras. Furthermore, live images, temperature characteristics and events from each camera can be displayed in a user-friendly format. Warning and alarm thresholds for detecting critical changes to the object being measured can be set with just a few clicks. Likewise conveniently set is the the transmission of digital signals to the production control system via the included dry contact PoE powered process interface. Designed for 24/7 operation, the cameras deliver high resolution and thermal sensitivity so that even the most minor temperature deviation can be captured with precision. Thanks to high-speed Gigabit-Ethernet data transmission, events can be processed in real time, making for efficient monitoring.

Easy to install and expand
One of the major advantages of INDU-SCAN base is how easy it is to install. Thanks to a modular design, the system can be expanded at will by adding more cameras or accessories. This offers businesses investment security, because the system can be adapted to meet future requirements. The experts at InfraTec provide support in the form of comprehensive consultation and are with users at every step of the way, from planning a system configuration to its implementation and beyond to the ideal configuration to meet process requirements.

Major advantages at a glance:

• Modular system: Up to three high-resolution infrared cameras can be used
• Value for money: A cost-effective and reliable solution
• Durable: High-quality industrially tested components for fault-free operation 24/7
• Easy configuration: Separately for camera and control unit
• Extensive reporting: Detailed event logs for downstream analysis
• Expandability: System is flexible for adaptation and expansion

High-performance software for optimum monitoring
The INDU-SCAN base software features a user-friendly interface for controlling the cameras and displays live measurement and image data in a clear format. User-defined testing ranges, warning and alarm thresholds. Temperature/time characteristics in graph format enable precise analyses. The software logs events and archives image data for downstream analysis. A process interface makes the integration into existing production systems straightforward.

Versatile application options
The versatility of INDU-SCAN base makes it suitable for use in numerous different applications:

• Production processes: Flexible thermographic temperature measurement at all process stages
• Machine monitoring: Early detection of defects and overheating
• Fire protection: Permanent monitoring of potential fire risks
• Power supply: Inspection of cables and substations
• Transport and logistics: Monitoring of material handling systems and cold chains

This turnkey thermography automation solution helps to make production processes more efficient, minimise downtimes and increase safety. Thanks to its flexibility and performance, INDU-SCAN base is the ideal solution for businesses that need a reliable and cost-effective monitoring solution that is fit for the future.
