Uncooled Thermal Surveillance LWIR Camera Module 640x512 8~14μm LW

PLUG617 LWIR 640x512 / 17μm Uncooled Thermal Camera Module for Security and Monitoring

PLUG617 LWIR infrared module is one of the PLUG series that are developed by Global Sensor Technology (GST). The PLUG617 uncooled infrared camera core with a resolution of 640x512 and a pixel size of 17um is an ideal solution for security monitoring applications. This type of camera core offers high-quality thermal imaging capabilities, even in complete darkness or adverse weather conditions.

One of the key advantages of uncooled infrared camera cores is that they do not require a cryogenic cooler, which greatly simplifies the design and reduces the cost of the camera system. This makes uncooled infrared cameras ideal for a wide range of security monitoring applications, including surveillance, perimeter protection, and intrusion detection.

The high-resolution 640x512 sensor and small pixel size of 17um provide exceptional image clarity and detail, allowing even small temperature differences to be detected in the thermal image. This level of detail is essential for security monitoring applications, as it can help identify potential threats or anomalous behavior that might otherwise go undetected.

The PLUG617 thermal camera module can be integrated into security cameras with temperature monitoring from short distance to ultra distance, such as PTZ Camera, Box Camera, Speed Dome Camera.

1.How does an infrared detector work?

Infrared detectors work by sensing electromagnetic radiation in the infrared range. The exact mechanism of detection varies depending on the type of infrared detector.

Thermal detectors work by measuring the temperature change caused by absorbing the infrared radiation. For example, microbolometers consist of a matrix of tiny resistive elements that are sensitive to heat. When infrared radiation is absorbed by the detector, it causes the temperature of the resistive element to increase, resulting in a change in electrical resistance that can be detected and converted into an image.

Photon detectors, on the other hand, work by converting photons from the infrared radiation into electrical signals. Two common types of photon detectors are photovoltaic detectors and photoconductors. Photovoltaic detectors generate a voltage when infrared photons are absorbed, while photoconductors increase their conductivity when photons are absorbed.

Infrared detectors can also utilize other detection mechanisms, such as pyroelectricity, where changes in temperature induce a charge in a material, or thermoelectric effects, where a temperature difference between two materials generates a voltage.

The output signal from the infrared detector can be processed and displayed as an image, which can be used for a variety of purposes, such as thermal imaging in medical or industrial applications, remote sensing of the environment, and thermal scanning in security systems.
