Why Is Annual Thermal Camera Calibration Important?
What is thermal camera calibration? It is the process of testing and adjusting your camera’s sensors to ensure the infrared radiation it detects perfectly matches the true temperature of the object being viewed.
Over time, the internal electronic components of a thermal camera age, causing original factory settings to gradually drift. If your camera is used to make critical maintenance decisions, identify fire risks, or provide evidence in commercial reports, even a slight temperature drift can compromise your findings.
Want to check if your camera has drifted? Point your camera at a pan of lightly bubbling boiling water (should read 100°C) or melting ice in a bowl of water (should read 0°C). If your readings are far from these numbers, it is highly likely your camera needs re-calibrating.
Regular annual calibration ensures you maintain measurement accuracy, meet strict industry compliance standards, and protect your reputation with reliable data.
What Happens If My Camera Fails Calibration?
If your camera does not meet the required standards during testing, we will notify you immediately. As a FLIR partner, we can liaise directly with FLIR on your behalf to arrange further investigation or repairs. Any manufacturer repairs will always be quoted separately before any work proceeds.
Can You Calibrate Older Cameras?
Yes. Even when manufacturer support is limited, older thermal cameras can often still benefit from a standard calibration check. Contact our team with your model details, and we will offer honest, impartial advice on whether calibration is a cost-effective solution for your equipment.
