24.66 FLIR T660 45° (incl. Wi-Fi)
P/N: 55904-8622
Rev.: 43545
General description
The FLIR T660 is designed for the expert requiring the highest performance and the latest technology
available. The camera combines excellent ergonomics and a walk-up-and-use interface with superior
image quality of 640 × 480 pixel infrared resolution. The FLIR T660 is flexible and can meet your every
need.
Benefits:
• Highest performance with the latest technology: The FLIR T660 is equipped with the innovative Multi
Spectral Dynamic Imaging (MSX) feature, which produces an image richer in detail than ever before.
Continuous auto-focus makes the FLIR T660 the first fully automatic infrared camera on the market.
• Ground-breaking efficiency: You can highlight objects of interest, on both the infrared and the visual
images, by sketching or adding predefined stamps directly onto the camera’s capacitive touch
screen. The user interface is intuitive and logical for effective operation. Auto-orientation allows you
to tilt between landscape and portrait views.
• Extensive communication options: The Wi-Fi connectivity of the FLIR T660 allows you to connect to
smart phones or tablets for the wireless transfer of images or the remote control of the camera. The
Bluetooth-based METERLiNK function transfers readings from external measurement instruments
to the infrared image.
• Support for UltraMax: When enabling UltraMax in the camera, the resolution of images can be sub-
stantially enhanced when importing the images into FLIR Tools.

Cleaning the camera
27
27.1 Camera housing, cables, and other items
27.1.1 Liquids
Use one of these liquids:
• Warm water
• A weak detergent solution
27.1.2 Equipment
A soft cloth
27.1.3 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. Soak the cloth in the liquid.
2. Twist the cloth to remove excess liquid.
3. Clean the part with the cloth.
CAUTION
Do not apply solvents or similar liquids to the camera, the cables, or other items. This can cause
damage.
27.2 Infrared lens
27.2.1 Liquids
Use one of these liquids:
• A commercial lens cleaning liquid with more than 30% isopropyl alcohol.
• 96% ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH).
27.2.2 Equipment
Cotton wool
CAUTION
If you use a lens cleaning cloth it must be dry. Do not use a lens cleaning cloth with the liquids that are
given in section 27.2.1 above. These liquids can cause material on the lens cleaning cloth to become
loose. This material can have an unwanted effect on the surface of the lens.
27.2.3 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. Soak the cotton wool in the liquid.
2. Twist the cotton wool to remove excess liquid.
3. Clean the lens one time only and discard the cotton wool.
WARNING
Make sure that you read all applicable MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets) and warning labels on con-
tainers before you use a liquid: the liquids can be dangerous.
CAUTION
• Be careful when you clean the infrared lens. The lens has a delicate anti-reflective coating.
• Do not clean the infrared lens too vigorously. This can damage the anti-reflective coating.

Cleaning the camera

27.3 Infrared detector
27.3.1 General
Even small amounts of dust on the infrared detector can result in major blemishes in the
image. To remove any dust from the detector, follow the procedure below.
Note
• This section only applies to cameras where removing the lens exposes the infrared
detector.
• In some cases the dust cannot be removed by following this procedure: the infrared
detector must be cleaned mechanically. This mechanical cleaning must be carried out
by an authorized service partner.
CAUTION
In Step 2 below, do not use pressurized air from pneumatic air circuits in a workshop, etc., as this air
usually contains oil mist to lubricate pneumatic tools.
27.3.2 Procedure
Follow this procedure:
1. Remove the lens from the camera.
2. Use pressurized air from a compressed air canister to blow off the dust.

Application examples
28
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 prop-
erty and partly because it has a different thermal capacity to store heat than the sur-
rounding 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 re-
sult 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 in-
frared 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.
