Effortless One-hand Operation

You can keep one hand free while inspecting components for operator safety and to reduce neck strain.

Superior Sound Detection with 124 Microphones

Si-Series cameras have 124 microphones, which can help you pick up very quiet noises from a long distance for acoustic imaging. This is especially important when inspecting high-voltage systems and their potential air leaks, which require a safe distance from the energized equipment. The force of a sound signal drops significantly as you move farther away from its source. The solution is to increase the number of microphones: quadrupling the number of microphones essentially doubles the sound detection range. They use optimized dynamic range to balance frequency capabilities with how far sound travels.  You want your detectors to use the lowest frequencies possible to get the farthest distance.

Enterprise Scalability

Ensure optimal use and maintenance of equipment in large-scale industrial settings with fleet management, cloud data integration, and OTA software updates. Supporting software also brings the ability to integrate into data historians, reporting options over the cloud and desktop, and combining your IR and acoustic inspection programs. Si-Series users can also take advantage of the Organization feature; a user-friendly solution that simplifies the task of following up the reporting carried out in separate locations by different cameras and users.

Machine Learning Capabilities

The FLIR Si-Series uses machine learning to distinguish the other characteristics of the sound pattern created by leaks and PD from the background. It is the same way you distinguish between a harmonica and a bell playing the same note. Due to the large number of sensitive microphones combined with modern computer processing using machine learning, we are able to distinguish between the background noise and the defect-created noise due to properties other than frequency.
