Utility 512EX OGI
Maximize inspection reach, flexibility and accuracy.
Optical gas imaging allows you to visualize hydrocarbons to help track leaks and monitor facility operations.
The GSS U512EX OGI combines the highest performing 5-axis gyro-stabilized gimbal platform with the smallest, lightest and lowest-powered optical gas imaging camera core on the market for a winning combination.
Visualize and trace gas leaks in real time
Monitor parts of a plant that are difficult to reach
Perform inspections from a safe distance
GSS U512 OGI Unit has dual camera capability with thermal imaging and aircraft and gimbal position overlays.
