Ultra-high-performance handheld thermography camera — 480 × 360 with rotating lens and laser distance meter
The HIKMICRO SP40 is a top-tier inspection and reporting camera for industrial, predictive, oil and gas and utility maintenance work. A 480 × 360 detector with under 30 mK sensitivity feeds a 5-inch touchscreen, while the 180° rotating lens and 90° articulating screen let you image around, above and below equipment without moving into it. This configuration ships with 2 factory-matched lenses (L9 (9° × 6.8°), L37 (37.3° × 27.8°)), so one camera covers both close survey work and distant targets without a second body.
Key features
-
480 × 360 (172,800 pixels) VOx detector — NETD < 30 mK, with SuperIR upscaling to 960 × 720 (691,200 pixels)
-
Supplied with 2 lenses — L9 (9° × 6.8°), L37 (37.3° × 27.8°) — lenses are factory temperature-calibrated to the camera when ordered together — buying a lens separately later means sending both in for calibration
-
One-second focusing, five modes — laser-assisted AF, continuous AF, AF, manual and touch AF
-
180° rotating lens and 90° articulating screen — look above, below or between equipment while standing somewhere safe
-
−20 °C to 650 °C measurement range — accuracy ±2 °C / ±2 %
-
Embedded laser distance meter — distance and area measured directly, which is what makes the reported figures defensible
-
GPS, compass, voice, text and QR annotations — every image carries its own context into the report
-
HIKMICRO Inspector route planning — pre-plan inspection routes on PC, load them to the camera, follow station to station
-
Radiometric image and video recording — to the onboard SD card, for post-analysis in HIKMICRO Analyzer
-
Two batteries and a dual-bay charger — with a hard carrying case, HDMI and USB-C
