FLIR SC35 / SC15 / SC5 packs
Compact thermal imaging camera packs for
Research & Development and Science
Thermal imaging cameras can be used for a wide variety of
R&D applications. Until today using a thermal imaging camera
was often the privilege for large R&D departments. With the
extremely affordable SC35 / SC15 and SC5 packs FLIR Systems
is now bringing the advantages of thermal imaging to the test
bench of every R&D engineer.
FLIR SC35 / SC15 and SC5 packages are not only extremely
affordable. They contain both the hardware and software for
analyzing and verifying your R&D projects. With the FLIR SC35 /
SC15 and FLIR SC5 packs you will be able to visualize temperature
and to measure temperatures in a non-contact mode.

Extremely affordable
The FLIR A5 sc comes at an extremely
affordable price. It is the ideal tool for putting
thermal imaging at work in a R&D and Science
environment.
Extremely compact
All models are extremely compact. They can
easily be integrated in any environment.
Choice of image quality
The FLIR A35 sc produces crisp thermal images
of 320 x 256 pixels. Users that do not need this
high image quality for their application can
choose for the FLIR A15 sc which produces
thermal images of 160 x 128 pixels or for the
FLIR A5 sc which produces thermal images of
80 x 64 pixels.
GigE Vision™ standard compatibility
GigE Vision is a new camera interface standard developed using the Gigabit Ethernet
communication protocol. GigE Vision is the
rst standard to allow for fast image transfer using low cost standard cables even over
long distances. With GigE Vision, hardware
and software from different vendors can interoperate seamlessly over GigE connections.
GenICam™ protocol support
The goal of GenICam is to provide a generic programming interface for all types of
cameras. Regardless of interface technology
(GigE Vision, Camera Link, 1394 DCAM, etc.)
or features implemented, the Application
Programming Interface (API) will always be
the same. The GenICam protocol also makes
it possible to use third party software with the
camera. GenICam makes the FLIR A35 sc plugand-play when used with software packages
such as IMAQ Vision and Halcon.
Power over Ethernet (PoE )
Communication and power supplied with only
one cable.
Synchronization
Possible to congure one camera to be master
and others to be slave(s) for applications that
call for more than one camera to cover the
object or for stereoscopic applications.
General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO)
One output that can be used to control other
equipment and one input to read the status
from the same equipment.

FLIR Tools+ software included
FLIR Tools+ software is included with every SCxx pack.
The FLIR thermal imaging cameras included in the FLIR
SC packs work seamlessly together with FLIR Tools+.
It allows for viewing, recording and analyzing thermal
images and includes functions such as time versus
temperature plots.
Each FLIR SCxx pack contains a thermal imaging camera, hard case, goose
neck with foot and 2 cable straps, 2 Ethernet cables, base mount, focusing
tool, PoE injector, and a power cable.
