Cylindrical thermal vision for fixed installs
HeatCam-IR-C is a cylindrical industrial thermal camera that gives you a stable thermal view for machines, cells, and production lines, over a single Ethernet cable.
Mount it once, stream radiometric thermal images into your PC or automation stack, and stop guessing what temperature is doing between manual checks.
Manual checks miss thermal drift
Snapshot checks miss the slow thermal drift that causes scrap, rework, and field failures.
Most plants still rely on
- Handheld thermal cameras used only when “something looks wrong”
- Single-point pyrometers or simple switches
- Visual inspection of welds, brazes, or heated parts
The result
- Thermal defects discovered late in NDT or at the customer
- No thermal history when scrap appears
- Root cause analysis based on opinions, not data
Drop-in thermal coverage for any station
Deploy IR-C where you need fast thermal visibility. It ships ready for PoE and Modbus so maintenance teams can connect without custom hardware.
384 × 240 resolution
Industrial-grade thermal sensor balances coverage and detail so you can spot emerging hotspots before they escalate.
- Sharp contrast for heat maps and overlays
- Tracks small temperature deltas
- Stable imaging for continuous use
Thermal range
Cover anything from low-temperature conditioning to high-heat welding.
- -20 °C to 1500 °C temperature coverage
- 60 mK NETD sensitivity to see subtle drift
- Optimized for 24/7 monitoring
Industrial connectivity
Connects directly to plant networks with PoE power and Modbus communication, making it easy to feed SCADA, PLCs, or logging tools.
- PoE simplifies installation runs
- Modbus-ready for controls integration
- Works alongside existing sensors
Motorized focus and optics
Adjust focus and field of view from the control room so you don’t interrupt production.
- Remote, motorized focus control
- Multiple lens options for near or far targets
- High distance-to-spot ratio for safer mounting
Deployable across welding, sealing, and maintenance
IR-C adapts to stations that need reliable temperature oversight without heavy infrastructure.
Weld monitoring
Watch the weld pool in real time and spot overheating or underheating before defects reach final inspection.
Adhesive sealing
Verify seal temperatures stay within spec so seams bond consistently, even as ambient conditions change.
Condition monitoring
Track bearings, panels, and electrical cabinets for abnormal heat signatures that indicate early failures.
Heat treatment & furnaces
Track part temperature through heating and cooling steps to prevent uneven heating, hardness issues, and distortion.
Electronics & lab
Reveal hot spots, shorts, and uneven heating on PCBs and prototypes to speed up debugging and thermal characterization.
Thermal performance you can trust
IR-C is engineered for noisy industrial environments and continuous monitoring.
Built for plants
Compact, hardened design keeps installs simple even in tight or high-vibration areas.
- Power over Ethernet to cut cabling
- Modbus interface for supervisory systems
- Ready for fixed mounts or enclosures
Real-time thermal viewer included
IR-C includes a downloadable PC application that lets you see the live thermal image from any workstation on your network. Install it on an existing control-room PC and operators immediately get a clear, real-time view of what the camera sees.
Ready for software when you are
When you need alarms, statistical process control, dashboards or AI inspection, you can connect it to HeatCore Basic or other Therness software, or integrate it alongside your PLC and SCADA infrastructure.
You invest in the camera once, then expand with software over time without changing hardware.
