FLIR A-Series

Science Kits

FLIR A400, A500, and A700 Science Kits offer researchers and engineers a streamlined solution for accurate temperature measurement. Simplified yet robust connections help you set up and start testing quickly; then easily view, acquire, and analyze data using included FLIR Research Studio software. The Standard kit includes a FLIR A400, A500, or A700 Image Streaming camera, 24° lens with automatic/remote and manual focusing, as well as FLIR Macro Mode. The Professional kit has the added benefits of MSX® image enhancement, radiometric data transmission over Wi-Fi, and a close-up lens for accurate thermal measurements on small components.

Unparalleled accuracy, connectivity, and analysis
FLIR Research Studio’s simple Connect - View - Record - Analyze workflow helps you obtain and analyze thermal results quickly
Multiple lens options ensure the maximum number of pixels on your object; crisp auto or manual focus improves thermal measurement
Eliminate the need for additional cables using standard Power over Ethernet (PoE) plus Wi-Fi connection to your workstation (Professional kit)
