The VS290-32 is the company\u2019s first industrial-grade, electrical safety-rated, flexible dual-sensor videoscope on a replaceable, two-meter-long camera probe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For use in the most demanding environments, the VS290-32 is CAT IV 600 V safety rated for electrical inspections, along with an IP67-rated camera tip and IP54 base unit to protect against dust and water. The device features FLIR Systems\u2019 patented Multi-Spectral Dynamic Imaging (MSX\u00ae), which improves image clarity by embossing visual scene details onto full thermal images, providing crucial context to accurately and safely assess and identify potential issues to prevent blackouts and asset failures. A low-profile tip and bright LED work light provides illumination for MSX in dark environments, including under manhole covers or in other tight spaces such as attics, within HVAC systems, and inside machinery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe ruggedized and electrical-safety rated videoscope with MSX will drastically increase the ease of thermal inspections within tight, hard-to-reach places at power generation plants, power distribution systems, manufacturing facilities, and for public safety, and building diagnostics inspections,\u201d said Rickard Lindvall, General Manager, Solutions Business at FLIR Systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The VS290-32 features a FLIR Lepton\u00ae thermal sensor and offers the option of hot\/cold color alarms, or isotherms, to quickly identify areas of concern across a temperature range from -10 to 400 degrees Celsius (14 to 752 degrees Fahrenheit). The device includes a dual battery charger along with lithium ion rechargeable batteries that each provide up to six hours of continuous use.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSafety is Con Edison\u2019s top priority,\u201d said Andrew Reid, Section Manager for Engineering and Analysis in Distribution Engineering at Con Edison. \u201cThis new tool allows our crews to safely, efficiently, and effectively inspect vented manholes and identify potential problems without having to remove the cover or even having to enter the structure. This reduces the physical effort required by our crews, the time it takes to complete an inspection and enhances data collection activities to support our ongoing infrastructure planning and maintenance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The VS290-32 is available globally today for $4,999 through FLIR and authorized FLIR distributors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flir.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/www.flir.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FLIR Systems, Inc. announced the FLIR VS290-32&#x2122;, an industry-first videoscope that combines thermal imaging and a visible camera specifically designed for safer and more efficient inspections of hard-to-reach underground utility vaults.
