You put your life at risk every time you inspect live electric components - but you don't have to. FLIR's IRW-Series inspection windows add a barrier between you and energized equipment, protecting you from arc flash accidents.
Choose the anodized aluminum frame, or opt for durable stainless steel to prevent mixed metal issues. Both are easy to install, easy to use, and will help you work with greater confidence.
FLIR IR Windows Features
Easy to Install and Use
Drill one hole and attach the single PIRma-Lock™ ring to hold the window in place. Simple hinged cover flips open and stays put, so you don't need to worrying about losing, dropping, or mixing-up covers.
Stainless Steel Option
Avoid issues with dissimilar metals by choosing stainless steel model IRW-Series windows. You won't need to worry about galvanic corrosion from contact between the stainless steel cabinet and window frame.
Broadband Transmission
FLIR's broadband crystal lenses allow cameras to capture crisp visible and thermal images without distortions. The lenses transmit short, mid, and longwave IR, and allow laser pointers and illumination to shine through.
Safety Certified
FLIR's IR Windows are compliant with NFPA 70E requirements, and are tested and certified for arc flash safety (KEMA)*, CSA and CSAus Model Certification, and have Underwriters Laboratories recognition (UL 50V).*IRW-2C, IRW-3C, and IRW-4C models only.

I once took a class where the professor would explain concepts in two ways. First, he would dive into the mathematics behind the idea, filling the whiteboard with equations and showing how they all related to one another. He tagged this “for the engineers,” Then, he would explain the concept again, but this time, with no math at all. This he said, was “for the poets.”
So why is datacom cabling twisted, but power cabling is not? It’s all about bandwidth. Power signals are of such low frequencies that they don’t need to worry about bandwidth, but datacom cables do.

As many different applications increasingly adopt Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices, such as phones, cameras, lighting, access controls, IDEAL Networks offers advice to help IT technicians handle everyday PoE troubleshooting scenarios.
“There are clear benefits of PoE for many applications, but with standards changing all the time, it can present challenges for IT technicians and cable engineers,” explains Tim Widdershoven, Marketing Director for IDEAL Networks. “Consider a Voice over IP (VoIP) phone, for example. If it doesn’t have a sticker which specifies what standard is required, technicians may not know whether the measured power passes or fails.”
