Quick start guide
5.1
Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Put a battery into the battery compartment.
Connect the USB battery charger to the USB connector at the top of the camera.
Charge the battery for 2 hours before starting the camera for the first time.
Insert a memory card into the card slot at the top of the camera.
Note Only use a memory card that has not previously been used in another type of
camera. The cameras may organize files differently on the memory card. There is
therefore a risk of losing data if the same memory card is used in different types of
cameras.
5. Push the on/off button
to turn on the camera.
6. Aim the camera toward the object of interest.
7. Adjust the infrared camera focus by rotating the focus ring.
Note It is very important to adjust the focus correctly. Incorrect focus adjustment affects how the image modes work. It also affects the temperature measurement.
8. Pull the trigger to save an image.
9. Download and install FLIR Tools/Tools+ or FLIR Report Studio on your computer.
10. Start FLIR Tools/Tools+ or FLIR Report Studio.
11. Connect the camera to the computer using the USB cable.
12. Import the images into FLIR Tools/Tools+ or FLIR Report Studio and create an inspection report.
13. Send the inspection report to your client.
5.2
To keep in mind
• Adjust the focus first. When the camera is out of focus, the measurement will be
wrong.
• By default, most cameras adapt the scale automatically. Use this mode first, but do
not hesitate to set the scale manually.
• A thermal camera has a resolution limit. This depends on the size of the detector, the
lens, and the distance to the target. Use the center of the spot tool as a guide to the
minimum possible object size, and get closer if necessary. Make sure to stay away
from dangerous areas and live electrical components.
• Be careful when holding the camera perpendicular to the target. Be observant of reflections, especially at low emissivities—you, the camera, or the surroundings may become the main source of reflection.
• Select a zone of high emissivity, e.g., an area with a matte surface, to perform a
measurement.
• Blank objects, i.e., those with low emissivities, may appear warm or cold in the camera, because they mainly reflect the environment.
• Avoid direct sunlight on the details that you are inspecting.
• Various types of faults, e.g., those in a building’s construction, may result in the same
type of thermal pattern.
• Correctly analyzing an infrared image requires professional knowledge about the
application.

Laser distance meter and laser pointer
7.3.1 General
The laser distance meter consists of a laser transmitter and a laser receiver. The laser
distance meter determines the distance to a target by measuring the time it takes for a laser pulse to reach the target and return to the laser receiver. This time is converted to a
distance, which is displayed on the screen.
The laser receiver also works as a laser pointer. When the laser distance meter is on,
you will see a laser dot approximately at the target.

10.8 Operating the laser distance meter
10.8.1
General
The laser distance meter consists of a laser transmitter and a laser receiver. The laser
distance meter determines the distance to a target by measuring the time it takes for a laser pulse to reach the target and return to the laser receiver. This time is converted to a
distance, which is displayed on the screen.
The laser receiver also works as a laser pointer. When the laser distance meter is on,
you will see a laser dot approximately at the target.

10.9 Measuring areas
10.9.1
General
The distance measured by the laser distance meter can be used as the basis for area
calculations. A typical application is to estimate the size of a damp stain on a wall.
To measure the area of a surface, you need to lay out a box or circle measurement tool
on the screen. The camera calculates the area of the surface enclosed by the box or
circle tool. The calculation is an estimate of the surface area, based on the measured
distance to the target.
When the laser distance meter is on, you will see a laser dot approximately at the target.
The laser distance meter measures the distance to that target. The camera assumes that
this distance is valid for the entire box or circle tool.
For successful area measurements, keep the following in mind:
•
•
•
•
Make sure that the box or circle tool is in the center of the image.
Adjust the size of the box or circle tool to the size of the target.
Hold the camera perpendicular to the target.
Avoid targets with many details at different distances from the camera.

Saving and working with images
11.1 About image files
11.1.1
General
When you save an image, the camera saves an image file that includes all thermal and
visual information. This means that you can open an image file at a later time and, for example, select another image mode, apply color alarms, and add measurement tools.
The image *.jpg file is fully radiometric and saved lossless, which enables full post-processing in image analysis and reporting software from FLIR Systems. There is also a regular *.jpg component (lossy) for convenient viewing in non-FLIR Systems software (e.g.,
Microsoft Explorer).
Note
• The camera can also be configured to save an extra low-resolution visual image as a
separate file. Select
JPEG = On.
(Settings) > Save options & storage > Photo as separate
• When the Digital camera image mode is selected, a high-resolution digital image is
stored when an image is saved. However, no thermal information is stored. For more
information, see section 14 Working with image modes, page 62.
11.1.2
File-naming convention
The default naming convention for image files is FLIRxxxx.jpg, where xxxx is a unique
counter.
It is also possible to save images with a date prefix added to the filename. However,
these files may not automatically be detected by third-party applications. For more information, see the setting File naming format in section 24.1.4 Save options & storage,
page 89.
11.1.3
Storage capacity
When you save an image, the camera stores the image file on the memory card.
The size of an image file (with no annotations) is typically less than 1000 kB. Thus, the
capacity of a 4 GB memory card is approximately 4000 images.
Note Only use a memory card that has not previously been used in another type of
camera. The cameras may organize files differently on the memory card. There is therefore a risk of losing data if the same memory card is used in different types of cameras.

Achieving a good image
13.1 General
A good image depends on several different functions and settings, although some functions and settings affect the image more than others.
These are the functions and settings that you need to experiment with:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Adjusting the infrared camera focus.
Adjusting the infrared image (automatically or manually).
Selecting a suitable temperature range.
Selecting a suitable color palette.
Changing the measurement parameters.
Performing a non-uniformity correction (NUC).
The following sections explain how to work with these functions and settings.
In some situations, you may also want to hide the overlay graphics for a better view.
13.2 Adjusting the infrared camera focus
It is very important to adjust the focus correctly. Incorrect focus adjustment affects how
the image modes work. It also affects the temperature measurement.
13.2.1
Manual focus
You can adjust the focus manually by rotating the focus ring. For more information, see
section 10.4 Adjusting the infrared camera focus manually, page 28.
13.2.2
Autofocus
You can autofocus the infrared camera by pushing the Autofocus button. For more information, see section 10.5 Autofocusing the infrared camera, page 28.
WARNING
Do not point the camera at the face of a person when you use the autofocus function. You can set the
camera to use a laser distance measurement for the focus adjustment. The laser beam can cause eye
irritation.
Note You can also assign the autofocus function to the programmable button
For more information, see section 10.12 Assigning functions to the programmable button,
page 34.
13.2.3
Continuous autofocus
The infrared camera can be set up to perform continuous autofocusing. For more information, see section 10.6 Continuous autofocus, page 29.
WARNING
Do not point the camera at the face of a person when the continuous autofocus function is on. The camera uses laser distance measurements (that are continuous) for the focus adjustments. The laser beam
can cause eye irritation.
13.3 Adjusting the infrared image
13.3.1
General
An infrared image can be adjusted automatically or manually.
In automatic mode, the camera continuously adjusts the level and span for the best image presentation. The colors are distributed based on the thermal content of the image
#T810190; r. AB/39747/39747; en-US
55
13
Achieving a good image
(histogram color distribution). The temperature scale to the right of the screen shows the
upper and lower temperatures of the current span.
In manual mode, you can adjust the temperature scale to values close to the temperature
of a specific object in the image. This will make it possible to detect anomalies and smaller temperature differences in the part of the image of interest. In manual mode, the colors are distributed evenly from the lowest to the highest temperature (linear color
distribution). This is indicated by lines on the temperature scale.
There are two different settings for the manual adjustment mode:
• Level, Span: With this setting, you can manually adjust the level and span.
• Level, Max, Min: With this setting, you can manually adjust the level. You can also
change the upper and lower temperatures individually.

Achieving a good image
13.7 Performing a non-uniformity correction
(NUC)
When the thermal camera displays Calibrating... it is performing what in thermography is
called a ”non-uniformity correction” (NUC). An NUC is an image correction carried out by
the camera software to compensate for different sensitivities of detector elements and
other optical and geometrical disturbances1. For more information, see section 32 About
calibration, page 187.
An NUC is performed automatically, for example at start-up, when changing a measurement range, or when the environment temperature changes.
You can also perform an NUC manually. This is useful when you have to perform a critical
measurement with as little image disturbance as possible. You may, for example, want to
perform a manual calibration just before you start recording a video sequence.

Working with image modes
14.1 General
The camera can capture both thermal and visual images at the same time. By your
choice of image mode, you select which type of image to display on the screen.
The camera supports the following image modes:
• Thermal: A fully infrared image is displayed.
• Thermal MSX (Multi Spectral Dynamic Imaging): The camera displays an infrared image where the edges of the objects are enhanced with visual image details.
• Picture in picture: An infrared image frame is displayed on top of the visual image.
• Digital camera: The visual image captured by the digital camera is displayed.
Note
• For the Thermal MSX, Thermal, and Picture in picture image modes, all thermal and
visual information is stored when an image is saved. This means that you can edit the
image later, in the image archive, or in FLIR Tools/Tools+ or FLIR Report Studio, and
select any of the image modes.
• For the Digital camera image mode, a digital image with full resolution (5 MP) is stored
when an image is saved. However, no thermal information is stored.
• The Thermal MSX, Thermal, and Picture in picture image modes only work correctly
for calibrated lenses. The lens that ships with the camera is factory calibrated. To calibrate a new lens, you must send the camera and the lens to your local service
department.

15.5 Changing the measurement parameters
15.5.1
General
For accurate measurements, it is important to set the measurement parameters.
Note During normal operation there is typically no need to change the default measurement parameters, see section 15.5.3 Recommended values, page 67.
15.5.2
Types of parameters
The camera can use these measurement parameters:
• External IR window compensation, i.e., the temperature of any protective windows,
external lenses (e.g., the close-up lens), etc., that are set up between the camera and
the object of interest. If no protective window, protective shield, or external lens is
used, this value is irrelevant and should be left inactive.
• Object distance, i.e., the distance between the camera and the object of interest.
Note The camera can be configured to automatically measure the distance when
an image is saved. With this setting, the Object distance parameter is automatically
updated with the measured distance when an image is saved. For more information,
see section 7.3 Laser distance meter and laser pointer, page 19.
• Atmospheric temperature, i.e., the temperature of the air between the camera and the
object of interest.
• Relative humidity, i.e., the relative humidity of the air between the camera and the object of interest.
• Reflected temperature, which is used when compensating for the radiation from the
surroundings reflected by the object into the camera. This property of the object is
called “reflectivity.”
• Emissivity, i.e., how much radiation an object emits, compared with the radiation of a
theoretical reference object at the same temperature (called a “blackbody”). The
#T810190; r. AB/39747/39747; en-US
66
15
Working with measurement tools
opposite of emissivity is reflectivity. The emissivity determines how much of the radiation originates from the object as opposed to being reflected by it.
Note
There is an Emissivity mode setting, which you can use to enter the emissivity
by material instead of by value. Select
(Settings) > Device settings > User interface options > Emissivity mode > Select from materials table.
Emissivity is the most important measurement parameter to set correctly. If the Emissivity
is set to a low value, the Reflected temperature also becomes important. The parameters
Object distance, Atmospheric temperature, and Relative humidity are relevant for longer
distances. The External IR window compensation must be activated if a protective window or external lens is used.
15.5.3
Recommended values
If you are unsure about the values, the following are recommended:
Object distance
1.0 m (3.3 ft.)
Atmospheric temperature
20°C (69°F)
Relative humidity
50%
Reflected temperature
20°C (69°F)
Emissivity
0.95
15.5.4
Procedure
You can set the measurement parameters globally. You can also change the Emissivity,
Reflected temperature, and Object distance parameters locally for a measurement tool.
Local parameters are normally only effective for a fixed setup, where each measurement
tool is set for a specific object of interest. For a general handheld application, the global
parameters are usually sufficient.
Note Emissivity and Reflected temperature are the two most important measurement
parameters to set correctly in the camera.

Working with color alarms and
isotherms
16.1 Color alarms
16.1.1
General
By using color alarms (isotherms), anomalies can easily be discovered in an infrared image. The isotherm command applies a contrasting color to all pixels with a temperature
above, below, or between the set temperature levels. The camera also features isotherm
types that are specific to the building trade: condensation and insulation alarms.
You can make the camera trigger the following types of color alarms:
• Above alarm: This will apply a contrasting color to all pixels with a temperature above
the specified temperature level.
• Below alarm: This will apply a contrasting color to all pixels with a temperature below
the specified temperature level.
• Interval alarm: This will apply a contrasting color to all pixels with a temperature between two specified temperature levels.
• Condensation alarm: Triggers when the camera detects a surface where the relative
humidity exceeds a preset value.
• Insulation alarm: Triggers when there is an insulation deficiency in a wall.
16.1.2

Note
Building isotherms
The Condensation and Insulation alarms are not supported by all camera models.
16.1.4.1
About the Condensation alarm
To detect areas with potential moisture problems, you can use the Condensation alarm.
You can set the relative humidity above which the isotherm will colorize the image.
16.1.4.2
About the Insulation alarm
The Insulation alarm can detect areas where there may be an insulation deficiency in the
building. It will trigger when the insulation level (which is called the thermal index in the
camera) falls below a preset value of the energy leakage through a wall.
Different building codes recommend different values for the insulation level, but typical
values are 60–80% for new buildings. Refer to your national building code for
recommendations.

• Atmospheric temperature: The current atmospheric temperature.
• Relative humidity: The current relative humidity.
• Relative humidity limit: The relative humidity level at which you want the alarm to
be triggered. A relative humidity of 100% means that water vapor condenses from
the air as liquid water (= dewpoint). A relative humidity of about 70% or above can
cause mold.
For the Insulation alarm, the following parameters can be set:
• Indoor temperature: The current indoor temperature.
• Outdoor temperature: The current outdoor temperature.
• Thermal index: The insulation level (an integer between 0 and 100).

17.3.3.3
17.3.3.3.1
Manually creating a table template
General
A text comment file (*.tcf) is an annotation format that is proprietary to FLIR Systems. It
defines a table structure that can be used to add text table annotations to FLIR images.
You can create text comment files (*.tcf files) and use these files as table templates in
the camera.
The camera ships with an example text comment table file: example_text_comment.tcf.
The file is stored on the memory card in the subfolder \TextTableTemplates. You can
make a copy of the example file and modify it using a text editor such as Microsoft
Notepad.
When creating or modifying a text comment file, keep the following rules in mind:
1. Lines starting with “#” are regarded as comments and will be ignored.
2. Lines that start with “<” and end with “>” are labels and will appear on the left-hand
side of the table.
3. Non-empty lines under a label line are regarded as values and will be displayed as
options to the label above.
4. When you save the file, select UTF-8 encoding. With UTF-8 encoding, the file will
support all languages currently supported by the camera.
5. The template will be updated by the camera if you add or remove values in the text table annotations dialog in the camera. This enables you to modify its content while
you are working with the camera.
6. The camera will find all text table template files if:
• They are placed on the memory card in the subfolder \TextTableTemplates.
• They have an ASCII filename and the file extension .tcf. (ASCII characters include
a–z, A–Z, 0–9, and basic punctuation, and spaces can be used. The file can contain non-ASCII text, but the filename must be ASCII.)
17.3.3.3.2
Example mark-up structure
The file format for the text comment table template is *.tcf. This code sample is an example mark-up structure of such a file, and shows how the mark-up appears in a text editor

Screening alarm
20.1 General
The screening alarm can be used, for example, at airports to detect passengers with elevated body temperatures, which may indicate the presence of a fever.
The screening alarm can also be used to detect temperature anomalies in a series of inspected objects in a similar/fixed setup.
Activating the screening mode will turn on a measurement box and screening data in the
result table.
The sampled average temperature.
The alarm temperature.
The measured temperature.
The alarm will trigger when the measurement box measures a temperature higher than
the alarm temperature. The alarm temperature is, in turn, the sum of a specified allowed
deviation and a sampled average value.
20.2 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. Push the navigation pad to display the menu system.
2. Select
(Settings) and push the navigation pad. This displays the Settings menu.
3. Use the navigation pad to select Recording mode > Screening.
4. Push the navigation pad. This displays a dialog box where you can define the settings
for the alarm:
• Allowed deviation: The allowed deviation from the sampled average.
• Alarm sound: Applicable values are Beep or No sound.
5. Push the navigation pad. This closes the dialog box.
6. Push the back button
repeatedly to exit the Settings menu.
7. Aim the camera toward a point of interest. The object should be within the frame of
the measurement box.
8. Push and hold the programmable button
to reset the sampled average.
9. Push the programmable button
to sample.
10. Aim the camera toward more points of interest. Sample 10 times to build up a sample
base by pushing the programmable button
The alarm is now set up and ready to use. Occasionally record a few samples if the
alarm is used for a long time or if the conditions change.
Note
• The algorithm has a memory of the last 10 samples. It discriminates between the highest and lowest values, and calculates an average of the remaining values.
• Do not modify the measurement setup or activate another alarm because this will deactivate the screening alarm.

Application examples
28.1 Moisture & water damage
28.1.1
General
It is often possible to detect moisture and water damage in a house by using an infrared
camera. This is partly because the damaged area has a different heat conduction property and partly because it has a different thermal capacity to store heat than the surrounding material.
Many factors can come into play as to how moisture or water damage will appear in an
infrared image.
For example, heating and cooling of these parts takes place at different rates depending
on the material and the time of day. For this reason, it is important that other methods are
used as well to check for moisture or water damage.
28.1.2
Figure
The image below shows extensive water damage on an external wall where the water
has penetrated the outer facing because of an incorrectly installed window ledge.
28.2 Faulty contact in socket
28.2.1
General
Depending on the type of connection a socket has, an improperly connected wire can result in local temperature increase. This temperature increase is caused by the reduced
contact area between the connection point of the incoming wire and the socket , and can
result in an electrical fire.
A socket’s construction may differ dramatically from one manufacturer to another. For
this reason, different faults in a socket can lead to the same typical appearance in an infrared image.
Local temperature increase can also result from improper contact between wire and
socket, or from difference in load.
28.2.2
Figure
The image below shows a connection of a cable to a socket where improper contact in
the connection has resulted in local temperature increase.

Application examples
28.3 Oxidized socket
28.3.1
General
Depending on the type of socket and the environment in which the socket is installed, oxides may occur on the socket's contact surfaces. These oxides can lead to locally increased resistance when the socket is loaded, which can be seen in an infrared image
as local temperature increase.
A socket’s construction may differ dramatically from one manufacturer to another. For
this reason, different faults in a socket can lead to the same typical appearance in an infrared image.
Local temperature increase can also result from improper contact between a wire and
socket, or from difference in load.
28.3.2
Figure
The image below shows a series of fuses where one fuse has a raised temperature on
the contact surfaces against the fuse holder. Because of the fuse holder’s blank metal,
the temperature increase is not visible there, while it is visible on the fuse’s ceramic
material.

Application examples
28.4 Insulation deficiencies
28.4.1
General
Insulation deficiencies may result from insulation losing volume over the course of time
and thereby not entirely filling the cavity in a frame wall.
An infrared camera allows you to see these insulation deficiencies because they either
have a different heat conduction property than sections with correctly installed insulation,
and/or show the area where air is penetrating the frame of the building.
When you are inspecting a building, the temperature difference between the inside and
outside should be at least 10°C (18°F). Studs, water pipes, concrete columns, and similar components may resemble an insulation deficiency in an infrared image. Minor differences may also occur naturally.
28.4.2
Figure
In the image below, insulation in the roof framing is lacking. Due to the absence of insulation, air has forced its way into the roof structure, which thus takes on a different characteristic appearance in the infrared image.
28.5 Draft
28.5.1
General
Draft can be found under baseboards, around door and window casings, and above ceiling trim. This type of draft is often possible to see with an infrared camera, as a cooler
airstream cools down the surrounding surface.
When you are investigating draft in a house, there should be sub-atmospheric pressure
in the house. Close all doors, windows, and ventilation ducts, and allow the kitchen fan
to run for a while before you take the infrared images.
An infrared image of draft often shows a typical stream pattern. You can see this stream
pattern clearly in the picture below.
Also keep in mind that drafts can be concealed by heat from floor heating circuits.
28.5.2
Figure
The image below shows a ceiling hatch where faulty installation has resulted in a strong
draft.

Thermographic measurement
techniques
31.1 Introduction
An infrared camera measures and images the emitted infrared radiation from an object.
The fact that radiation is a function of object surface temperature makes it possible for
the camera to calculate and display this temperature.
However, the radiation measured by the camera does not only depend on the temperature of the object but is also a function of the emissivity. Radiation also originates from
the surroundings and is reflected in the object. The radiation from the object and the reflected radiation will also be influenced by the absorption of the atmosphere.
To measure temperature accurately, it is therefore necessary to compensate for the effects of a number of different radiation sources. This is done on-line automatically by the
camera. The following object parameters must, however, be supplied for the camera:
•
•
•
•
•
The emissivity of the object
The reflected apparent temperature
The distance between the object and the camera
The relative humidity
Temperature of the atmosphere
31.2 Emissivity
The most important object parameter to set correctly is the emissivity which, in short, is a
measure of how much radiation is emitted from the object, compared to that from a perfect blackbody of the same temperature.
Normally, object materials and surface treatments exhibit emissivity ranging from approximately 0.1 to 0.95. A highly polished (mirror) surface falls below 0.1, while an oxidized
or painted surface has a higher emissivity. Oil-based paint, regardless of color in the visible spectrum, has an emissivity over 0.9 in the infrared. Human skin exhibits an emissivity 0.97 to 0.98.
Non-oxidized metals represent an extreme case of perfect opacity and high reflexivity,
which does not vary greatly with wavelength. Consequently, the emissivity of metals is
low – only increasing with temperature. For non-metals, emissivity tends to be high, and
decreases with temperature.
31.2.1
31.2.1.1
Finding the emissivity of a sample
Step 1: Determining reflected apparent temperature
Use one of the following two methods to determine reflected apparent temperature:

182
31
Thermographic measurement techniques
31.2.1.1.1
Method 1: Direct method
Follow this procedure:
1. Look for possible reflection sources, considering that the incident angle = reflection
angle (a = b).
Figure 31.1 1 = Reflection source
2. If the reflection source is a spot source, modify the source by obstructing it using a
piece if cardboard.
Figure 31.2 1 = Reflection source
#T810190; r. AB/39747/39747; en-US
183
31
Thermographic measurement techniques
3. Measure the radiation intensity (= apparent temperature) from the reflection source
using the following settings:
• Emissivity: 1.0
• Dobj: 0
You can measure the radiation intensity using one of the following two methods:
Figure 31.3 1 = Reflection source
Figure 31.4 1 = Reflection source
You can not use a thermocouple to measure reflected apparent temperature, because a
thermocouple measures temperature, but apparent temperatrure is radiation intensity.
31.2.1.1.2
Method 2: Reflector method
Follow this procedure:
1. Crumble up a large piece of aluminum foil.
2. Uncrumble the aluminum foil and attach it to a piece of cardboard of the same size.
3. Put the piece of cardboard in front of the object you want to measure. Make sure that
the side with aluminum foil points to the camera.
4. Set the emissivity to 1.0.
#T810190; r. AB/39747/39747; en-US
184
31
Thermographic measurement techniques
5. Measure the apparent temperature of the aluminum foil and write it down. The foil is
considered a perfect reflector, so its apparent temperature equals the reflected apparent temperature from the surroundings.
Figure 31.5 Measuring the apparent temperature of the aluminum foil.
31.2.1.2
Step 2: Determining the emissivity
Follow this procedure:
1. Select a place to put the sample.
2. Determine and set reflected apparent temperature according to the previous
procedure.
3. Put a piece of electrical tape with known high emissivity on the sample.
4. Heat the sample at least 20 K above room temperature. Heating must be reasonably
even.
5. Focus and auto-adjust the camera, and freeze the image.
6. Adjust Level and Span for best image brightness and contrast.
7. Set emissivity to that of the tape (usually 0.97).
8. Measure the temperature of the tape using one of the following measurement
functions:
• Isotherm (helps you to determine both the temperature and how evenly you have
heated the sample)
• Spot (simpler)
• Box Avg (good for surfaces with varying emissivity).
9. Write down the temperature.
10. Move your measurement function to the sample surface.
11. Change the emissivity setting until you read the same temperature as your previous
measurement.
12. Write down the emissivity.
Note
• Avoid forced convection
• Look for a thermally stable surrounding that will not generate spot reflections
• Use high quality tape that you know is not transparent, and has a high emissivity you
are certain of
• This method assumes that the temperature of your tape and the sample surface are
the same. If they are not, your emissivity measurement will be wrong.

Thermographic measurement techniques
31.3 Reflected apparent temperature
This parameter is used to compensate for the radiation reflected in the object. If the
emissivity is low and the object temperature relatively far from that of the reflected it will
be important to set and compensate for the reflected apparent temperature correctly.
31.4 Distance
The distance is the distance between the object and the front lens of the camera. This
parameter is used to compensate for the following two facts:
• That radiation from the target is absorbed by the atmosphere between the object and
the camera.
• That radiation from the atmosphere itself is detected by the camera.
31.5 Relative humidity
The camera can also compensate for the fact that the transmittance is also dependent
on the relative humidity of the atmosphere. To do this set the relative humidity to the correct value. For short distances and normal humidity the relative humidity can normally be
left at a default value of 50%.
31.6 Other parameters
In addition, some cameras and analysis programs from FLIR Systems allow you to compensate for the following parameters:
• Atmospheric temperature – i.e. the temperature of the atmosphere between the camera and the target
• External optics temperature – i.e. the temperature of any external lenses or windows
used in front of the camera
• External optics transmittance – i.e. the transmission of any external lenses or windows
used in front of the camera

About calibration
32.1 Introduction
Calibration of a thermal camera is a prerequisite for temperature measurement. The calibration provides the relationship between the input signal and the physical quantity that
the user wants to measure. However, despite its widespread and frequent use, the term
“calibration” is often misunderstood and misused. Local and national differences as well
as translation-related issues create additional confusion.
Unclear terminology can lead to difficulties in communication and erroneous translations,
and subsequently to incorrect measurements due to misunderstandings and, in the worst
case, even to lawsuits.
32.2 Definition—what is calibration?
The International Bureau of Weights and Measures15 defines calibration16 as an operation that, under specified conditions,
• in a first step establishes a relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by measurement standards and corresponding indications with
associated measurement uncertainties (of the calibrated instrument or secondary
standard) and
• in a second step uses this information to establish a relation for obtaining a measurement result from an indication.
The calibration itself may be expressed in different formats: this can be a statement, calibration function, calibration diagram17, calibration curve18, or calibration table.
Often, the first step alone in the above definition is perceived and referred to as being
“calibration.” However, this is not (always) sufficient.
Considering the calibration procedure of a thermal camera, the first step establishes the
relation between emitted radiation (the quantity value) and the electrical output signal
(the indication). This first step of the calibration procedure consists of obtaining a homogeneous (or uniform) response when the camera is placed in front of an extended source
of radiation.
As we know the temperature of the reference source emitting the radiation, in the second
step the obtained output signal (the indication) can be related to the reference source’s
temperature (measurement result). The second step includes drift measurement and
compensation.
To be correct, calibration of a thermal camera is, strictly, not expressed through temperature. Thermal cameras are sensitive to infrared radiation: therefore, at first you obtain a
radiance correspondence, then a relationship between radiance and temperature. For
bolometer cameras used by non-R&D customers, radiance is not expressed: only the
temperature is provided.
32.3 Camera calibration at FLIR Systems
Without calibration, an infrared camera would not be able to measure either radiance or
temperature. At FLIR Systems, the calibration of uncooled microbolometer cameras with
a measurement capability is carried out during both production and service. Cooled cameras with photon detectors are often calibrated by the user with special software. With
this type of software, in theory, common handheld uncooled thermal cameras could be

About calibration
calibrated by the user too. However, as this software is not suitable for reporting purposes, most users do not have it. Non-measuring devices that are used for imaging only
do not need temperature calibration. Sometimes this is also reflected in camera terminology when talking about infrared or thermal imaging cameras compared with thermography cameras, where the latter are the measuring devices.
The calibration information, no matter if the calibration is done by FLIR Systems or the
user, is stored in calibration curves, which are expressed by mathematical functions. As
radiation intensity changes with both temperature and the distance between the object
and the camera, different curves are generated for different temperature ranges and exchangeable lenses.
32.4 The differences between a calibration
performed by a user and that performed directly
at FLIR Systems
First, the reference sources that FLIR Systems uses are themselves calibrated and
traceable. This means, at each FLIR Systems site performing calibration, that the sources are controlled by an independent national authority. The camera calibration certificate is confirmation of this. It is proof that not only has the calibration been performed by
FLIR Systems but that it has also been carried out using calibrated references. Some
users own or have access to accredited reference sources, but they are very few in
number.
Second, there is a technical difference. When performing a user calibration, the result is
often (but not always) not drift compensated. This means that the values do not take into
account a possible change in the camera’s output when the camera’s internal temperature varies. This yields a larger uncertainty. Drift compensation uses data obtained in climate-controlled chambers. All FLIR Systems cameras are drift compensated when they
are first delivered to the customer and when they are recalibrated by FLIR Systems Customer Support.
32.5 Calibration verification and adjustment
A common misconception is to confuse calibration with verification or adjustment. Indeed, calibration is a prerequisite for verification, which provides confirmation that specified requirements are met. Verification provides objective evidence that a given item
fulfills specified requirements. To obtain the verification, defined temperatures (emitted
radiation) of calibrated and traceable reference sources are measured. The measurement results, including the deviation, are noted in a table. The verification certificate
states that these measurement results meet specified requirements. Sometimes, companies or organizations offer and market this verification certificate as a ”calibration
certificate.”
Proper verification—and by extension calibration and/or recalibration—can only be
achieved when a validated protocol is respected. The process is more than placing the
camera in front of blackbodies and checking if the camera output (as temperature, for instance) corresponds to the original calibration table. It is often forgotten that a camera is
not sensitive to temperature but to radiation. Furthermore, a camera is an imaging system, not just a single sensor. Consequently, if the optical configuration allowing the camera to “collect” radiance is poor or misaligned, then the “verification” (or calibration or
recalibration) is worthless!
For instance, one has to ensure that the distance between the blackbody and the camera
as well as the diameter of the blackbody cavity are chosen so as to reduce stray radiation
and the size-of-source effect.
To summarize: a validated protocol must comply with the physical laws for radiance, and
not only those for temperature.

About calibration
Calibration is also a prerequisite for adjustment, which is the set of operations carried out
on a measuring system such that the system provides prescribed indications corresponding to given values of quantities to be measured, typically obtained from measurement standards. Simplified, adjustment is a manipulation that results in instruments that
measure correctly within their specifications. In everyday language, the term “calibration”
is widely used instead of “adjustment” for measuring devices.
32.6 Non-uniformity correction
When the thermal camera displays ”Calibrating…” it is adjusting for the deviation in response of each individual detector element (pixel). In thermography, this is called a ”nonuniformity correction” (NUC). It is an offset update, and the gain remains unchanged.
The draft European standard EN 16714-3, Non-destructive Testing—Thermographic
Testing—Part 3: Terms and Definitions, defines an NUC as “Image correction carried out
by the camera software to compensate for different sensitivities of detector elements and
other optical and geometrical disturbances.”
During the NUC (the offset update), a shutter (internal flag) is placed in the optical path,
and all the detector elements are exposed to the same amount of radiation originating
from the shutter. Therefore, in an ideal situation, they should all give the same output signal. However, each individual element has its own response, so the output is not uniform.
This deviation from the ideal result is calculated and used to mathematically perform an
image correction, which is essentially a correction of the displayed radiation signal.
Some cameras do not have an internal flag. In this case, the offset update must be performed manually using special software and an external uniform source of radiation.
An NUC is performed, for example, at start-up, when changing a measurement range, or
when the environment temperature changes. Some cameras also allow the user to trigger it manually. This is useful when you have to perform a critical measurement with as
little image disturbance as possible.
32.7 Thermal image adjustment (thermal
tuning)
Some people use the term “image calibration” when adjusting the thermal contrast and
brightness in the image to enhance specific details. During this operation, the temperature interval is set in such a way that all available colors are used to show only (or mainly)
the temperatures in the region of interest. The correct term for this manipulation is “thermal image adjustment” or “thermal tuning”, or, in some languages, “thermal image optimization.” You must be in manual mode to undertake this, otherwise the camera will set the
lower and upper limits of the displayed temperature interval automatically to the coldest
and hottest temperatures in the scene.

History of infrared technology
Before the year 1800, the existence of the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum wasn't even suspected. The original significance of the infrared spectrum, or simply
‘the infrared’ as it is often called, as a form of heat radiation is perhaps less obvious today than it was at the time of its discovery by Herschel in 1800.
Figure 33.1 Sir William Herschel (1738–1822)
The discovery was made accidentally during the search for a new optical material. Sir
William Herschel – Royal Astronomer to King George III of England, and already famous
for his discovery of the planet Uranus – was searching for an optical filter material to reduce the brightness of the sun’s image in telescopes during solar observations. While
testing different samples of colored glass which gave similar reductions in brightness he
was intrigued to find that some of the samples passed very little of the sun’s heat, while
others passed so much heat that he risked eye damage after only a few seconds’
observation.
Herschel was soon convinced of the necessity of setting up a systematic experiment,
with the objective of finding a single material that would give the desired reduction in
brightness as well as the maximum reduction in heat. He began the experiment by actually repeating Newton’s prism experiment, but looking for the heating effect rather than
the visual distribution of intensity in the spectrum. He first blackened the bulb of a sensitive mercury-in-glass thermometer with ink, and with this as his radiation detector he proceeded to test the heating effect of the various colors of the spectrum formed on the top
of a table by passing sunlight through a glass prism. Other thermometers, placed outside
the sun’s rays, served as controls.
As the blackened thermometer was moved slowly along the colors of the spectrum, the
temperature readings showed a steady increase from the violet end to the red end. This
was not entirely unexpected, since the Italian researcher, Landriani, in a similar experiment in 1777 had observed much the same effect. It was Herschel, however, who was
the first to recognize that there must be a point where the heating effect reaches a maximum, and that measurements confined to the visible portion of the spectrum failed to locate this point.
Figure 33.2 Marsilio Landriani (1746–1815)
Moving the thermometer into the dark region beyond the red end of the spectrum, Herschel confirmed that the heating continued to increase. The maximum point, when he
found it, lay well beyond the red end – in what is known today as the ‘infrared
wavelengths’.

33
History of infrared technology
When Herschel revealed his discovery, he referred to this new portion of the electromagnetic spectrum as the ‘thermometrical spectrum’. The radiation itself he sometimes referred to as ‘dark heat’, or simply ‘the invisible rays’. Ironically, and contrary to popular
opinion, it wasn't Herschel who originated the term ‘infrared’. The word only began to appear in print around 75 years later, and it is still unclear who should receive credit as the
originator.
Herschel’s use of glass in the prism of his original experiment led to some early controversies with his contemporaries about the actual existence of the infrared wavelengths.
Different investigators, in attempting to confirm his work, used various types of glass indiscriminately, having different transparencies in the infrared. Through his later experiments, Herschel was aware of the limited transparency of glass to the newly-discovered
thermal radiation, and he was forced to conclude that optics for the infrared would probably be doomed to the use of reflective elements exclusively (i.e. plane and curved mirrors). Fortunately, this proved to be true only until 1830, when the Italian investigator,
Melloni, made his great discovery that naturally occurring rock salt (NaCl) – which was
available in large enough natural crystals to be made into lenses and prisms – is remarkably transparent to the infrared. The result was that rock salt became the principal infrared optical material, and remained so for the next hundred years, until the art of synthetic
crystal growing was mastered in the 1930’s.
Figure 33.3 Macedonio Melloni (1798–1854)
Thermometers, as radiation detectors, remained unchallenged until 1829, the year Nobili
invented the thermocouple. (Herschel’s own thermometer could be read to 0.2 °C
(0.036 °F), and later models were able to be read to 0.05 °C (0.09 °F)). Then a breakthrough occurred; Melloni connected a number of thermocouples in series to form the
first thermopile. The new device was at least 40 times as sensitive as the best thermometer of the day for detecting heat radiation – capable of detecting the heat from a person
standing three meters away.
The first so-called ‘heat-picture’ became possible in 1840, the result of work by Sir John
Herschel, son of the discoverer of the infrared and a famous astronomer in his own right.
Based upon the differential evaporation of a thin film of oil when exposed to a heat pattern focused upon it, the thermal image could be seen by reflected light where the interference effects of the oil film made the image visible to the eye. Sir John also managed
to obtain a primitive record of the thermal image on paper, which he called a
‘thermograph’.

History of infrared technology
Figure 33.4 Samuel P. Langley (1834–1906)
The improvement of infrared-detector sensitivity progressed slowly. Another major breakthrough, made by Langley in 1880, was the invention of the bolometer. This consisted of
a thin blackened strip of platinum connected in one arm of a Wheatstone bridge circuit
upon which the infrared radiation was focused and to which a sensitive galvanometer responded. This instrument is said to have been able to detect the heat from a cow at a
distance of 400 meters.
An English scientist, Sir James Dewar, first introduced the use of liquefied gases as cooling agents (such as liquid nitrogen with a temperature of -196 °C (-320.8 °F)) in low temperature research. In 1892 he invented a unique vacuum insulating container in which it
is possible to store liquefied gases for entire days. The common ‘thermos bottle’, used
for storing hot and cold drinks, is based upon his invention.
Between the years 1900 and 1920, the inventors of the world ‘discovered’ the infrared.
Many patents were issued for devices to detect personnel, artillery, aircraft, ships – and
even icebergs. The first operating systems, in the modern sense, began to be developed
during the 1914–18 war, when both sides had research programs devoted to the military
exploitation of the infrared. These programs included experimental systems for enemy
intrusion/detection, remote temperature sensing, secure communications, and ‘flying torpedo’ guidance. An infrared search system tested during this period was able to detect
an approaching airplane at a distance of 1.5 km (0.94 miles), or a person more than 300
meters (984 ft.) away.
The most sensitive systems up to this time were all based upon variations of the bolometer idea, but the period between the two wars saw the development of two revolutionary
new infrared detectors: the image converter and the photon detector. At first, the image
converter received the greatest attention by the military, because it enabled an observer
for the first time in history to literally ‘see in the dark’. However, the sensitivity of the image converter was limited to the near infrared wavelengths, and the most interesting military targets (i.e. enemy soldiers) had to be illuminated by infrared search beams. Since
this involved the risk of giving away the observer’s position to a similarly-equipped enemy
observer, it is understandable that military interest in the image converter eventually
faded.
The tactical military disadvantages of so-called 'active’ (i.e. search beam-equipped) thermal imaging systems provided impetus following the 1939–45 war for extensive secret
military infrared-research programs into the possibilities of developing ‘passive’ (no
search beam) systems around the extremely sensitive photon detector. During this period, military secrecy regulations completely prevented disclosure of the status of infraredimaging technology. This secrecy only began to be lifted in the middle of the 1950’s, and
from that time adequate thermal-imaging devices finally began to be available to civilian
science and industry.

Theory of thermography
34.1 Introduction
The subjects of infrared radiation and the related technique of thermography are still new
to many who will use an infrared camera. In this section the theory behind thermography
will be given.
34.2 The electromagnetic spectrum
The electromagnetic spectrum is divided arbitrarily into a number of wavelength regions,
called bands, distinguished by the methods used to produce and detect the radiation.
There is no fundamental difference between radiation in the different bands of the electromagnetic spectrum. They are all governed by the same laws and the only differences
are those due to differences in wavelength.
Figure 34.1 The electromagnetic spectrum. 1: X-ray; 2: UV; 3: Visible; 4: IR; 5: Microwaves; 6:
Radiowaves.
Thermography makes use of the infrared spectral band. At the short-wavelength end the
boundary lies at the limit of visual perception, in the deep red. At the long-wavelength
end it merges with the microwave radio wavelengths, in the millimeter range.
The infrared band is often further subdivided into four smaller bands, the boundaries of
which are also arbitrarily chosen. They include: the near infrared (0.75–3 μm), the middle
infrared (3–6 μm), the far infrared (6–15 μm) and the extreme infrared (15–100 μm).
Although the wavelengths are given in μm (micrometers), other units are often still used
to measure wavelength in this spectral region, e.g. nanometer (nm) and Ångström (Å).
The relationships between the different wavelength measurements is:
34.3 Blackbody radiation
A blackbody is defined as an object which absorbs all radiation that impinges on it at any
wavelength. The apparent misnomer black relating to an object emitting radiation is explained by Kirchhoff’s Law (after Gustav Robert Kirchhoff, 1824–1887), which states that
a body capable of absorbing all radiation at any wavelength is equally capable in the
emission of radiation.

34
Theory of thermography
Figure 34.2 Gustav Robert Kirchhoff (1824–1887)
The construction of a blackbody source is, in principle, very simple. The radiation characteristics of an aperture in an isotherm cavity made of an opaque absorbing material represents almost exactly the properties of a blackbody. A practical application of the
principle to the construction of a perfect absorber of radiation consists of a box that is
light tight except for an aperture in one of the sides. Any radiation which then enters the
hole is scattered and absorbed by repeated reflections so only an infinitesimal fraction
can possibly escape. The blackness which is obtained at the aperture is nearly equal to
a blackbody and almost perfect for all wavelengths.
By providing such an isothermal cavity with a suitable heater it becomes what is termed
a cavity radiator. An isothermal cavity heated to a uniform temperature generates blackbody radiation, the characteristics of which are determined solely by the temperature of
the cavity. Such cavity radiators are commonly used as sources of radiation in temperature reference standards in the laboratory for calibrating thermographic instruments,
such as a FLIR Systems camera for example.
If the temperature of blackbody radiation increases to more than 525°C (977°F), the
source begins to be visible so that it appears to the eye no longer black. This is the incipient red heat temperature of the radiator, which then becomes orange or yellow as the
temperature increases further. In fact, the definition of the so-called color temperature of
an object is the temperature to which a blackbody would have to be heated to have the
same appearance.
Now consider three expressions that describe the radiation emitted from a blackbody.
34.3.1
Planck’s law
Figure 34.3 Max Planck (1858–1947)
Max Planck (1858–1947) was able to describe the spectral distribution of the radiation
from a blackbody by means of the following formula:

Theory of thermography
where:
Wλb
Blackbody spectral radiant emittance at wavelength λ.
Velocity of light = 3 × 108 m/s
Planck’s constant = 6.6 × 10-34 Joule sec.
Boltzmann’s constant = 1.4 × 10-23 Joule/K.
Absolute temperature (K) of a blackbody.
λ
Wavelength (μm).
Note The factor 10-6 is used since spectral emittance in the curves is expressed in
Watt/m2, μm.
Planck’s formula, when plotted graphically for various temperatures, produces a family of
curves. Following any particular Planck curve, the spectral emittance is zero at λ = 0,
then increases rapidly to a maximum at a wavelength λmax and after passing it approaches zero again at very long wavelengths. The higher the temperature, the shorter
the wavelength at which maximum occurs.

temperatures. 1: Spectral radiant emittance (W/cm2 × 103(μm)); 2: Wavelength (μm)
34.3.2
Wien’s displacement law
By differentiating Planck’s formula with respect to λ, and finding the maximum, we have:
This is Wien’s formula (after Wilhelm Wien, 1864–1928), which expresses mathematically the common observation that colors vary from red to orange or yellow as the temperature of a thermal radiator increases. The wavelength of the color is the same as the
wavelength calculated for λmax. A good approximation of the value of λmax for a given
blackbody temperature is obtained by applying the rule-of-thumb 3 000/T μm. Thus, a
very hot star such as Sirius (11 000 K), emitting bluish-white light, radiates with the peak
of spectral radiant emittance occurring within the invisible ultraviolet spectrum, at wavelength 0.27 μm.

The sun (approx. 6 000 K) emits yellow light, peaking at about 0.5 μm in the middle of
the visible light spectrum.
At room temperature (300 K) the peak of radiant emittance lies at 9.7 μm, in the far infrared, while at the temperature of liquid nitrogen (77 K) the maximum of the almost insignificant amount of radiant emittance occurs at 38 μm, in the extreme infrared wavelengths.

the locus of maximum radiant emittance at each temperature as described by Wien's displacement law. 1:
Spectral radiant emittance (W/cm2 (μm)); 2: Wavelength (μm).
34.3.3
Stefan-Boltzmann's law
By integrating Planck’s formula from λ = 0 to λ = ∞, we obtain the total radiant emittance
(Wb) of a blackbody:
This is the Stefan-Boltzmann formula (after Josef Stefan, 1835–1893, and Ludwig Boltzmann, 1844–1906), which states that the total emissive power of a blackbody is proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature. Graphically, Wb represents the
area below the Planck curve for a particular temperature. It can be shown that the radiant
emittance in the interval λ = 0 to λmax is only 25% of the total, which represents about the
amount of the sun’s radiation which lies inside the visible light spectrum.

Using the Stefan-Boltzmann formula to calculate the power radiated by the human body,
at a temperature of 300 K and an external surface area of approx. 2 m2, we obtain 1 kW.
This power loss could not be sustained if it were not for the compensating absorption of
radiation from surrounding surfaces, at room temperatures which do not vary too drastically from the temperature of the body – or, of course, the addition of clothing.
34.3.4
Non-blackbody emitters
So far, only blackbody radiators and blackbody radiation have been discussed. However,
real objects almost never comply with these laws over an extended wavelength region –
although they may approach the blackbody behavior in certain spectral intervals. For example, a certain type of white paint may appear perfectly white in the visible light spectrum, but becomes distinctly gray at about 2 μm, and beyond 3 μm it is almost black.
There are three processes which can occur that prevent a real object from acting like a
blackbody: a fraction of the incident radiation α may be absorbed, a fraction ρ may be reflected, and a fraction τ may be transmitted. Since all of these factors are more or less
wavelength dependent, the subscript λ is used to imply the spectral dependence of their
definitions. Thus:
• The spectral absorptance αλ= the ratio of the spectral radiant power absorbed by an
object to that incident upon it.
• The spectral reflectance ρλ = the ratio of the spectral radiant power reflected by an object to that incident upon it.
• The spectral transmittance τλ = the ratio of the spectral radiant power transmitted
through an object to that incident upon it.
The sum of these three factors must always add up to the whole at any wavelength, so
we have the relation:
For opaque materials τλ = 0 and the relation simplifies to:
Another factor, called the emissivity, is required to describe the fraction ε of the radiant
emittance of a blackbody produced by an object at a specific temperature. Thus, we
have the definition:
The spectral emissivity ελ= the ratio of the spectral radiant power from an object to that
from a blackbody at the same temperature and wavelength.
Expressed mathematically, this can be written as the ratio of the spectral emittance of
the object to that of a blackbody as follows:
Generally speaking, there are three types of radiation source, distinguished by the ways
in which the spectral emittance of each varies with wavelength.
• A blackbody, for which ελ = ε = 1
• A graybody, for which ελ = ε = constant less than 1
#T810190; r. AB/39747/39747; en-US
197
34
Theory of thermography
• A selective radiator, for which ε varies with wavelength
According to Kirchhoff’s law, for any material the spectral emissivity and spectral absorptance of a body are equal at any specified temperature and wavelength. That is:
From this we obtain, for an opaque material (since αλ + ρλ = 1):
For highly polished materials ελ approaches zero, so that for a perfectly reflecting material (i.e. a perfect mirror) we have:
For a graybody radiator, the Stefan-Boltzmann formula becomes:
This states that the total emissive power of a graybody is the same as a blackbody at the
same temperature reduced in proportion to the value of ε from the graybody.

Theory of thermography
34.4 Infrared semi-transparent materials
Consider now a non-metallic, semi-transparent body – let us say, in the form of a thick flat
plate of plastic material. When the plate is heated, radiation generated within its volume
must work its way toward the surfaces through the material in which it is partially absorbed. Moreover, when it arrives at the surface, some of it is reflected back into the interior. The back-reflected radiation is again partially absorbed, but some of it arrives at the
other surface, through which most of it escapes; part of it is reflected back again.
Although the progressive reflections become weaker and weaker they must all be added
up when the total emittance of the plate is sought. When the resulting geometrical series
is summed, the effective emissivity of a semi-transparent plate is obtained as:
When the plate becomes opaque this formula is reduced to the single formula:
This last relation is a particularly convenient one, because it is often easier to measure
reflectance than to measure emissivity directly.

35
The measurement formula
As already mentioned, when viewing an object, the camera receives radiation not only
from the object itself. It also collects radiation from the surroundings reflected via the object surface. Both these radiation contributions become attenuated to some extent by the
atmosphere in the measurement path. To this comes a third radiation contribution from
the atmosphere itself.
This description of the measurement situation, as illustrated in the figure below, is so far
a fairly true description of the real conditions. What has been neglected could for instance be sun light scattering in the atmosphere or stray radiation from intense radiation
sources outside the field of view. Such disturbances are difficult to quantify, however, in
most cases they are fortunately small enough to be neglected. In case they are not negligible, the measurement configuration is likely to be such that the risk for disturbance is
obvious, at least to a trained operator. It is then his responsibility to modify the measurement situation to avoid the disturbance e.g. by changing the viewing direction, shielding
off intense radiation sources etc.
Accepting the description above, we can use the figure below to derive a formula for the
calculation of the object temperature from the calibrated camera output.
Figure 35.1 A schematic representation of the general thermographic measurement situation.1: Surroundings; 2: Object; 3: Atmosphere; 4: Camera
Assume that the received radiation power W from a blackbody source of temperature
Tsource on short distance generates a camera output signal Usource that is proportional to
the power input (power linear camera). We can then write (Equation 1):
or, with simplified notation:
where C is a constant.
Should the source be a graybody with emittance ε, the received radiation would consequently be εWsource.
We are now ready to write the three collected radiation power terms:
1. Emission from the object = ετWobj, where ε is the emittance of the object and τ is the
transmittance of the atmosphere. The object temperature is Tobj.
#T810190; r. AB/39747/39747; en-US
200
35
The measurement formula
2. Reflected emission from ambient sources = (1 – ε)τWrefl, where (1 – ε) is the reflectance of the object. The ambient sources have the temperature Trefl.
It has here been assumed that the temperature Trefl is the same for all emitting surfaces within the halfsphere seen from a point on the object surface. This is of course
sometimes a simplification of the true situation. It is, however, a necessary simplification in order to derive a workable formula, and Trefl can – at least theoretically – be given a value that represents an efficient temperature of a complex surrounding.
Note also that we have assumed that the emittance for the surroundings = 1. This is
correct in accordance with Kirchhoff’s law: All radiation impinging on the surrounding
surfaces will eventually be absorbed by the same surfaces. Thus the emittance = 1.
(Note though that the latest discussion requires the complete sphere around the object to be considered.)
3. Emission from the atmosphere = (1 – τ)τWatm, where (1 – τ) is the emittance of the atmosphere. The temperature of the atmosphere is Tatm.
The total received radiation power can now be written (Equation 2):
We multiply each term by the constant C of Equation 1 and replace the CW products by
the corresponding U according to the same equation, and get (Equation 3):
Solve Equation 3 for Uobj (Equation 4):
This is the general measurement formula used in all the FLIR Systems thermographic
equipment. The voltages of the formula are:
Table 35.1 Voltages
Uobj
Calculated camera output voltage for a blackbody of temperature

object temperature.

Measured camera output voltage for the actual case.
Urefl
Theoretical camera output voltage for a blackbody of temperature
Trefl according to the calibration.
Uatm

The operator has to supply a number of parameter values for the calculation:
•
•
•
•
•
the object emittance ε,
the relative humidity,
Tatm
object distance (Dobj)
the (effective) temperature of the object surroundings, or the reflected ambient temperature Trefl, and
• the temperature of the atmosphere Tatm
This task could sometimes be a heavy burden for the operator since there are normally
no easy ways to find accurate values of emittance and atmospheric transmittance for the
actual case. The two temperatures are normally less of a problem provided the surroundings do not contain large and intense radiation sources.
A natural question in this connection is: How important is it to know the right values of
these parameters? It could though be of interest to get a feeling for this problem already
here by looking into some different measurement cases and compare the relative

The measurement formula
magnitudes of the three radiation terms. This will give indications about when it is important to use correct values of which parameters.
The figures below illustrates the relative magnitudes of the three radiation contributions
for three different object temperatures, two emittances, and two spectral ranges: SW and
LW. Remaining parameters have the following fixed values:
• τ = 0.88
• Trefl = +20°C (+68°F)
• Tatm = +20°C (+68°F)
It is obvious that measurement of low object temperatures are more critical than measuring high temperatures since the ‘disturbing’ radiation sources are relatively much stronger in the first case. Should also the object emittance be low, the situation would be still
more difficult.
We have finally to answer a question about the importance of being allowed to use the
calibration curve above the highest calibration point, what we call extrapolation. Imagine
that we in a certain case measure Utot = 4.5 volts. The highest calibration point for the
camera was in the order of 4.1 volts, a value unknown to the operator. Thus, even if the
object happened to be a blackbody, i.e. Uobj = Utot, we are actually performing extrapolation of the calibration curve when converting 4.5 volts into temperature.
Let us now assume that the object is not black, it has an emittance of 0.75, and the transmittance is 0.92. We also assume that the two second terms of Equation 4 amount to 0.5
volts together. Computation of Uobj by means of Equation 4 then results in Uobj = 4.5 /
0.75 / 0.92 – 0.5 = 6.0. This is a rather extreme extrapolation, particularly when considering that the video amplifier might limit the output to 5 volts! Note, though, that the application of the calibration curve is a theoretical procedure where no electronic or other
limitations exist. We trust that if there had been no signal limitations in the camera, and if
it had been calibrated far beyond 5 volts, the resulting curve would have been very much
the same as our real curve extrapolated beyond 4.1 volts, provided the calibration algorithm is based on radiation physics, like the FLIR Systems algorithm. Of course there
must be a limit to such extrapolations.
