FLIR PTU 5: Small, Lightweight, High-Performance Pan Tilt Unit
Standing only six inches tall when fully integrated, the new FLIR PTU 5 can hold up to five pounds on its top bracket, packing incredible performance into a compact package. Even with its small size the PTU-5 is more accurate than many other – more expensive – systems thanks to the absolute encoders used on the drive axes.
Fully sealed and weather-proof rated to IP67, the PTU-5 can be used anywhere, even outdoors. By doing away with the separate controller box, and including a unique ability to home the axes without returning to zero, the PTU 5 is easy to set-up and has a fast start-up sequence.
FLIR PTU 5 is the lightweight, low-cost, easy to integrate pan/tilt solution demanding OEM integrators have been looking for.
