Discover how the FLIR iXX series combines smartphone-like usability, cloud connectivity, and rugged performance to make thermal inspections smarter and more efficient.
The ever-changing landscape of thermal imagery continues to evolve and adapt daily, and the new range of FLIR iXX thermal imaging cameras is the latest example of this. With a focus on efficiency and accuracy, this new range features app-enabled operation, built-in connectivity, and a rugged design that allows for use in a number of real-world applications. Whether you're working in electrical maintenance, building diagnostics, or condition monitoring, the iXX series has been expertly designed to ensure issues can be spotted early, which helps keep operations running smoothly.
Powered by FLIR's ACE operating system, the iXX range works more like a modern smartphone than a traditional instrument. The app-based interface allows users to follow guided workflows, apply templates, and capture consistent results, even with minimal training. This approach reduces the risk of errors in the field while making inspections faster and easier to manage. Combined with direct integration into platforms such as FLIR Ignite and Assetlink, the cameras are able to ensure that data flows smoothly from capture to reporting, whether you opt to store results in the cloud or integrate it with exisiting maintenance systems.
Another key strength of the iXX series is connectivity. Every model includes Wi-Fi, while the i35 and i65 add LTE, which allows for wireless broadband data, and ultimately enables for the upload of thermal images and reports directly, without having to return to base. This addition means that teams can be further spread out, and that collaboration can thrive. No more time spent transferring data!
With models ranging from the compact i34 and i35, to the higher-resolution i64 and i65, there's a version tailored towards any need. They all share impressive sensitivty (<40mK), robust construction with IP54 protection and 2m drop resistance, and a large touchscreen that makes navigating palettes, annotations, and reports effortless. The higher end models (i64 and i65) offer sharper thermal resolution for when you need greater detail, while LTE versions (i35 and i65) offer unmatched flexibility for teams working across sites. Below is a comparison table for the four iXX series thermal imaging cameras, to help you decide which is right for you:
For businesses serious about predictive maintenance, energy efficiency, and uptime, the iXX series is more than just a thermal camera. As a connected inspection platform, it helps reduce downtime, extends the life of assets, and ensures that decisions can be made with confidence.
