The FLIR GF320 is an IR camera for optical gas imaging (OGI) that visualizes and pinpoints leaks of VOCs, without the need to shut down the operation. The portable camera also greatly improves operator safety, by detecting emissions at a safe distance, and helps to protect the environment by tracing leaks of environmentally harmful gases.
Optical Gas Imaging, using FLIR GF-series thermal (infrared) cameras, o¬ffers a number of benefits compared to traditional “sniffers”. It is a quick, non-contact measuring instrument that can immediately give the camera operator an overview of the situation and visualize the gases as a vapor cloud coming out of the leaking source. It can also be used in hard-to-access locations, since it can detect small leaks from several meters away and big leaks from hundreds of meters away, and it can also show leaks in moving transport vehicles, such as tanker trucks.
The GF320 is used in industrial settings such as oil refineries, natural gas processing plants, offshore platforms, chemical/petrochemical industries, and biogas and power generation plants.
Detects the following gases:
Benzene, Ethanol, Ethylbenzene, Heptane, Hexane, Isoprene, Methanol, MEK, MIBK, Octane, Pentane, 1-Pentene, Toluene, Xylene, Butane, Ethane, Methane, Propane, Ethylene, Propylene
Cooled detector
The FLIR GF320 contains a cooled Indium Antimonide (InSb) detector. This highly sensitive detector visualizes gases in the 3.2 – 3.4 micrometer waveband. It will not only make gases, but also the smallest of temperature differences, clearly visible.
Temperature range
The FLIR GF320 visualizes temperatures from -20°C to +350°C.
Dual use
The FLIR GF320 can be used both for finding gas leaks and maintenance inspections.
Available lenses
The FLIR GF320 comes either with a fixed 14.5° lens or with a fixed 24° lens. A version with interchangeable lenses is also available but requires a US Department of State license.
