FLIR IR Inspection Windows dramatically improve workplace safety and efficiency during routine electrical condition monitoring. By enabling technicians to conduct thermal scans through a sealed panel, these windows maintain the cabinet’s environmental integrity while mitigating the primary triggers of catastrophic arc flash accidents. They utilize broadband crystal or advanced polymer lenses that seamlessly transmit short, mid, and longwave infrared wavelengths, while fully supporting visual inspections, fusion features, and laser pointers.

Installation is highly streamlined using standard knockout tools and FLIR’s proprietary PIRma-Lock™ ring nut technology, which grounds the metal components automatically and locks the window tightly in place without requiring screw holes. The units feature a permanently hinged, quick-access cover that flips open easily via a thumbscrew, ensuring no hardware components are dropped or lost in the field. Available in compact round profiles or large-format rectangular geometries, they are offered in anodized aluminum or durable 316 stainless steel to withstand corrosive or demanding industrial environments
