Solmetric has added FLIR thermal imaging cameras to its line of high quality measurement tools for solar professionals.  FLIR is the leading brand of thermal imaging ("IR") cameras.

IR cameras are used by solar professionals to identify:

  • Hot spots on PV modules
  • Non-producing modules or strings
  • Hot spots in balance-of-system wiring and equipment

Solmetric recommends the FLIR i7 and the FLIR E40 models for solar applications. 

A complete PV system commissioning, verification, and troubleshooting tool kit should include an IR camera alongside an I-V curve tracer, shade measurement tool, and insulation resistance teter.
