The price of infrared thermal imagers varies greatly due to factors such as brand, model, performance, and function. The following is a classification of the approximate price range and some product examples:
Civilian grade
Mobile phone thermal imager accessories: The price is generally around 500-2000 yuan. This type of product is mainly used in conjunction with a mobile phone to facilitate individuals to conduct some simple thermal imaging observations, such as detecting home insulation and finding pets. For example, the HIKMICRO P09 mobile phone thermal imager from Hikvision is sold at an event price of 699 yuan.
Portable handheld thermal imager: The price is usually between 2000-8000 yuan. It has a certain degree of portability and basic thermal imaging functions, and can be used for outdoor adventures, security monitoring and other scenes. Like the INFIRAY P2 Pro series from Arrow Optoelectronics, the price is between 1799-7980 yuan.
Industrial grade
Basic industrial inspection thermal imager: The price is roughly between 8000-20000 yuan. It can meet the basic needs of daily inspections and troubleshooting of industrial equipment, and has high temperature measurement accuracy and stability. For example, Fluke TiS20+MAX costs about 11,900 yuan.
High-end industrial thermal imagers: The price may be 20,000-50,000 yuan or even higher. It has higher resolution, wider temperature measurement range, faster response speed, etc., and is suitable for industrial fields with high detection requirements, such as electricity, metallurgy, chemical industry, etc.
Professional grade
UAV equipped with thermal imager: such as DJI Mavic 3T thermal imaging infrared aerial camera industry version set, the price is 39,598 yuan. It is mainly used in professional fields such as aerial surveying, power inspection, fire rescue, etc., and can perform large-scale thermal imaging monitoring from the air.
Online infrared thermal imaging monitoring system: used for 24-hour uninterrupted monitoring of specific areas or equipment, the price is more than 30,000 yuan, and can even reach hundreds of thousands of yuan. Like Huajingkang NX23E35 blast furnace infrared thermal imager, the price is 32,000 yuan.
Refrigerated gas infrared imagers: These products are high-tech and expensive, usually costing more than 500,000 yuan, and some even cost millions of yuan. For example, Arrow Optoelectronics' refrigerated gas infrared imager, the Tianji CG300C, is used for environmental law enforcement and natural gas leak detection, and costs 810,000 yuan.
