Sales Launch of Teledyne FLIR's High-Speed Infrared Thermal Camera "X6981-HS"

ADS-TEC Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Funabashi, Chiba; President: Yuki Kojima) is launching the "X-Series" of high-speed infrared thermal cameras from Teledyne FLIR (hereinafter "FLIR") in the Japanese market.

In various fields of research and development, rigorous testing is repeatedly conducted to verify product stability. The purpose of these tests is to pursue product safety, reliability, and durability, and to verify in advance whether the product can reliably perform its functions under harsh conditions.

In such critical verifications, even a split-second event cannot be overlooked, as data loss can lead to significant losses.

Rapidly Evolving Smart Energy Sector In recent years, technology in the fields of EVs, batteries, semiconductors, and next-generation energy has been advancing rapidly. Consequently, accurately grasping the "mechanism of heat generation" has become a crucial factor that determines product performance, safety, and reliability.

The "X6981-HS," the newest addition to FLIR's X-Series, uses microsecond-to-millisecond order time resolution and high-sensitivity infrared measurement to quantitatively capture everything from the origin of heat generation to its propagation process. This allows for more than just phenomenon observation; it reveals information directly linked to design, such as localized energy concentration, thermal diffusion, and triggers for anomalies.

For example, it is now possible to capture as empirical data areas that previously relied on speculation, such as the initial behavior of battery thermal runaway, the formation process of semiconductor hotspots, and the conditions for abnormal heat generation in power equipment.

FLIR X6981-HS supports not only the "visualization" of thermal phenomena but also "analysis" and "design optimization," fundamentally increasing the precision and speed of the development process.

Key Features of the FLIR X6981-HS - Achieves up to 1000Hz at full resolution (640x512) - Supports high-speed interfaces such as 10GigE, CXP2.1, and CameraLink - Standard 4TB SSD enables over 1.5 hours of continuous recording without dropped frames - Visualizes minute temperature changes with a high thermal sensitivity of approximately 20mK - Supports high-temperature measurements up to 3000°C

Applications in the Smart Energy Sector - Battery (Storage Battery) Evaluation: Contributes to safety evaluation and performance improvement by visualizing thermal behavior and abnormal heat generation during charging and discharging. - Thermal Analysis of Power Semiconductors and Power Equipment: Precisely measures high-speed temperature changes in inverters and SiC/GaN devices. - Diagnosis of Renewable Energy Facilities: Early detection of abnormal heat generation or degradation in solar and wind power equipment. - Hydrogen and Next-Generation Energy Research: Supports R&D through thermal distribution analysis of combustion and reaction processes.
