EN 16714-2:2016 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard describes properties and requirements of infrared cameras used for thermographic testing for non-destructive testing. This document gives also examples of excitation sources, the properties and requirements are described in application standards for active thermography. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 16714-3, Non-destructive testing — Infrared thermographic testing — Part 3: Terms and definitions 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 16714-3 apply. 4 Equipment 4.1 Selection of infrared camera The infrared camera (IR camera) has to be selected according to the application and the temperature of the inspected object. IR camera relevant parameters are: — spectral sensitivity; — temperature range; — thermal resolution; — spatial resolution; — frame rate; — temporal resolution. These parameters shall be provided by the manufacturer. 4.2 Classification of IR cameras 4.2.1 General IR cameras are classified according to detector arrangement and working principle. The classification according to the detector arrangement is: — single element detector with two-dimensional opto-mechanical scanning; — line scanner with one-dimensional opto-mechanical scanning or linear array; SIST EN 16714-2:2016



EN 16714-2:2016 (E) 6 — two-dimensional detector matrix without mechanical scanning (Focal Plane Array, FPA). Mechanical scanning is achieved by moving mirrors and/or prisms. However, the frame rate is limited due to the scanning. They are therefore less applicable to capture fast processes than FPA-cameras. The classification according to the detector working principle is: — thermal detectors; — quantum detectors. Thermal detectors, e.g. microbolometers or pyroelectric detectors, work at room temperature. Quantum detectors have to be cooled down to very low temperatures. Cooling is accomplished with multi-stage Peltier elements (thermo-electric), liquid nitrogen, expansion devices or refrigeration machines (Stirling engine). Quantum detectors have a higher sensitivity (specific detectivity D*) and can achieve higher frame rates than thermal detectors. IR cameras can be just imagers or radiometric calibrated devices. IR-imagers are sufficient for qualitative tasks like hot spot detection or analysis of radiation distributions. Radiometric calibrated IR-cameras allow for the measurements of radiance, temperature differences or absolute temperatures provided that object parameters, such as (but not limited to) emissivity and reflected apparent temperature are known. IR cameras are adapted to the transmission properties of the atmosphere for infrared radiation (atmospheric windows): — short Wave, SW: wavelength between approx. 0,8 µm and 2,0 µm; — mid Wave, MW:
wavelength between approx. 2,0 µm and 5,0 µm; — long Wave, LW: wavelength between approx. 8,0 µm and 14,0 µm. 4.2.2 Temperature range The temperature range is the interval between lowest and highest measurable temperature. The range should be specified for black-body temperatures (emissivity = 1). NOTE 1 Temperature range means the total temperature range, which can consist of several partial measurement ranges that can be adjusted separately at the device. NOTE 2 The use of optical components like spectral filters can alter the measurable temperature range. 4.2.3 Thermal resolution The thermal resolution describes the ability of an IR camera to resolve small temperature differences. The thermal resolution is commonly described by the noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD, see A.5). The thermal resolution depends among others on: — the object temperature; — the integration time or response time; — the temperature range. Therefore, it shall be specified at least with indication of these values. The required thermal resolution depends strongly on the application. SIST EN 16714-2:2016



EN 16714-2:2016 (E) 7 NOTE Typical values for the thermal resolution for object temperatures around 300 K are 0,05 K for uncooled thermal detectors and 0,02 K for cooled quantum detectors. 4.2.4 Spatial resolution and lenses The spatial resolution describes the ability of an IR camera to resolve small objects or details. The spatial resolution is commonly quantified with the slit response function (SRF, see A.3), hole response function (HRF, see A.4) or the instantaneous field of view (IFOV, see A.1) which is field of view for a single detector element. These specifications are needed to calculate the spot size diameter. They depend not only on the camera itself but also on the field of view of the lens. The spot size diameter also depends on the distance between the camera and the object. The required spatial resolution of the combination IR camera / lens depends strongly on the size of the investigated object or object detail. NOTE A typical value for the horizontal viewing angle of a single detector element is 1 mrad (for a lens with a 20° field of view and a detector matrix of 320 horizontal detector elements). The minimum resolvable temperature difference (MRTD, see A.6) considers thermal as well as spatial resolution of IR cameras including the observer. The MRTD characterizes the ability of the combined system IR camera and human observer to resolve small temperature differences at small structures in relation with the whole FOV (see A.2). 4.2.5 Frame rate
