Robust thermal camera for large-scale remote temperature monitoring

AXIS Q2101-TE can measure temperatures from -40 °C to 350 °C (-40 °F to 660 °F) and can trigger a notification when the temperature passes a set threshold or if the temperature increases or decreases too rapidly. This can help avoid unwanted downtime in production caused by overheating equipment as well as enable predictive maintenance planning.

Key features include:

Thermometric guard tour capabilities
Early fire detection analytics
Spot temperature reading
Built-in cybersecurity features
Support for edge-to-edge technology

This temperature measuring camera includes built-in cybersecurity features to help prevent unauthorized access and safeguard the system, as well as electronic image stabilization (EIS) to ensure smooth video even in scenes with vibrations.

The camera will be available through Axis distribution channels in Q2 2023.

Axis Communications will demo each of these new solutions alongside other Axis products at ISC West, booth #14051, at the Venetian Expo in Las Vegas, March 28-31.
