Health & Safety

Telops, manufacturer of infrared cameras and hyperspectral imaging systems for defence and security, environmental and industrial market, has launched Hyper-Cam Methane for methane gas detection

According to the company, this camera has been designed to detect, identify and quantify small quantities of methane even allowing the mapping of atmospheric methane at concentrations as low as one ppm.

The Hyper-Cam Methane is the newest addition to Hyper-Cam line of hyperspectral cameras. This expansion reinforces Telops’ position as a leader in the hyperspectral camera market, Telops added.

This instrument is also said to be ideal for landfill monitoring, biogas emission measurements, characterisation of natural gas leaks in hard to reach areas, LNG leak detection and quantification as well as the detection, identification and quantification of greenhouse gases in agriculture, environmental and forensic research.

Martin Chamberland, product line manager at Telops, said, “This very specialised methane detection imaging camera follows the evolution of Telops’ product line helping scientists benefit from high performance, easy to use hyperspectral cameras tailored for their specific methane detection applications.

“This highly sensitive, methane imaging research camera is sure to be a welcome addition in any research project involved in the detection, identification and quantification of methane gas leaks and emissions.”
