FLIR X6800sc, X6900sc, and X6900sc SLS
High-Speed, High Sensitivity Cameras for R&D and Science Applications
The FLIR X6800sc, X6900sc, and X6900sc SLS are fast, highly sensitive infrared cameras designed for scientists, researchers, and engineers. With advanced triggering and on-camera RAM/SSD recording, these camera offers the functionality to stop motion on high speed events both in the lab and at the test range.
The X6900sc MWIR and X6900sc SLS LWIR cameras offer blazing-fast 1004 frame rates at full 640 x 512 thermal resolution. These cameras record full window data to on-camera RAM for up to 26 sec. – perfectly blending the latest high speed visible camera features with the outstanding thermal technology you expect from FLIR. Choose the FLIR X6900sc SLS, with its longwave Strained layer superlattice (SLS) detector, for 12.6x faster integration speeds at a given temperature range than the X6900sc MWIR.
The X6800sc MWIR camera offers fast frame rates too – up to 502 fps at full resolution – but can record to on-camera RAM for more than 51 seconds with zero dropped frames. Play back from internal RAM or save to the removable FLIR DVIRTM solid-state drive in just 90 seconds and be ready to begin a new recording.
This camera model is end of life (EoL).
We do not recommend this for new projects.
This camera series is being replaced by the FLIR X-Series.
