The VP-12-IR’s 12mm viewing area was designed for tight areas or for use with infrared (IR) cameras with smaller, wider angle lens systems.
While the VP-12-IR is small in size, it is still big on features. The polymer lens material and switchgear-grade plastics assures compliance by maintaining an IP65/NEMA 4 seal whether open or closed. This keeps your energized electrical equipment in a closed and guarded condition, allowing your thermographers to work safely and efficiently.
With the smaller footprint of the VP-12-IR, it could be the answer for providing a thermographer access to more challenging areas. This will allow monitoring of equipment that would not have been possible with a larger window. The durability, flexibility and proven transmission stability of IRISS polymer IR windows continues with the VP-12-IR.
