FLIR X8580 SLS: High-Speed, High-Definition LWIR Camera for Scientists & Engineers

The FLIR X8580 SLS caters to the needs of scientists and engineers working in various fields. With its exceptional high-speed performance and high-definition resolution, this LWIR camera allows researchers to capture intricate details of fast-moving phenomena, such as thermal variations in materials under stress or the behavior of objects during high-velocity testing.

On-camera RAM and SSD recording capabilities ensure researchers can capture and store critical thermal data for later analysis. The camera also offers advanced synchronization and triggering options, enabling precise image capture aligned with external events or instrumentation.

The FLIR X8580 SLS integrates seamlessly with various software platforms. Users can stream thermal data directly to a computer for real-time analysis using FLIR Research Studio or third-party software via the FLIR Science Camera SDK. The camera also supports collaborative analysis through the free Research Studio Player, allowing researchers to share data with colleagues.

Advanced filtering options with a four-position motorized filter wheel provide camera flexibility for various applications. Users can quickly switch between different filters, ensuring optimal image quality for specific research needs.

Key Features:

  • High Resolution, High Speed:

    Acquire crisp thermal images at high speeds, up to 181 Hz full resolution or 6,000 Hz in sub-window mode. Offers 10x faster integration times compared to MWIR InSb cameras for ambient temperature scenes.

  • On-Camera RAM/SSD Recording:

    Record critical thermal data directly onto the camera. Save up to 34 seconds of full HD data to RAM or 15 minutes at 181 Hz to the included 512 GB SSD.

  • Synchronization and Triggering:

    Capture crucial moments by synchronizing with external events or equipment using record triggers or IRIG-B time.

  • Multiple Software Interfaces:

    Stream data, perform analysis, and share findings using FLIR Research Studio, third-party software (SDK), or the free Research Studio Player.
