Ceres-T-1280-Series

Ceres T 1280 series

The Ceres T 1280 series is based upon the Dione 1280 OEM thermal imaging core. With 1280 x 1024 pixel resolution and 12 μm pixel pitch, the camera series offer superior on-board thermographic (accuracy, stability) in the temperature range of up to 400°C. For the CameraLink versions, the camera outputs full frame images at 60 Hz and for GigE Vision interface versions, the camera outputs full frame images at 45 Hz.

Excellent thermographic stability and accuracy, compact size and GenICam compliant interfacing are the features that allow Ceres T 1280 series to effortlessly integrate into demanding industrial thermography applications.
