Olympus has launched the Iplex G Lite, which is well suited to the often-adverse conditions of industrial inspections. It carries an IP65 rating and is resistant to rain, high humidity, salt fog, dust, freezing rain, and even electromagnetic or explosive environments. The Iplex G Lite is also lightweight (1.15kg) and can be easily carried and operated with one hand.
The Iplex G Lite’s bright LED light source has twice the light intensity of its predecessor so that large, dark spaces can be inspected with bright, detailed images. Furthermore, the PulsarPic image processor automatically optimises lighting conditions, while Wider image processing maximises contrast in dark areas for increased probability of detection.
To expand the optical capabilities of the Iplex G Lite even further, interchangeable UV and infrared lighting options are available. With UV illumination, inspectors can detect fine scratches that are hard to see with the naked eye; IR illumination works well in security applications when capturing images without using a source of visible light.
