FLIR G343 OGI Cameras
for Carbon Dioxide (CO2) /Hydrogen
Avoid An Outage With New Hydrogen Leak Detection Technology In Flir G343â„¢
The FLIR G343 is an innovative Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) camera used to visualize possible carbon dioxide (COâ‚‚) gas leaks in complex systems including enhanced oil recovery, carbon capture systems, and hydrogen-cooled power generators. Whether or not COâ‚‚ is a byproduct of a production process or used as a trace gas, the portable, non-contact G343 is ideal for detecting COâ‚‚ gas leaks without interfering or shutting down large-scale manufacturing operations.Â
Utilities now have a way to efficiently find hydrogen leaks while using very small concentration of CO2 as a tracer gas (3-5%). Imaging the tracer gas with the G343 OGI camera, allows operators to detect even tiny hydrogen leaks accurately, compared to the conventional methods.
This advanced cooled 320 × 240 (76,800 pixels) resolution camera can detect CO leaks from a safe distance, reducing inspection time by scanning large areas without interfering or shutting down large-scale manufacturing operations. Featuring a rotating, color LCD touchscreen, the G343 is ideal for detecting CO gas in complex systems.  Â
Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® allow you to connect to smartphones or tablets and effortlessly edit and store images in the cloud, or wirelessly transfer files using the included FLIR Igniteâ„¢ cloud service.Â

The FLIR G343 also measures temperatures from -20°C to 300°C accurately in real time, and FLIR’s patented High-Sensitivity Mode (HSM) makes CO2 leaks stand out more clearly while allowing you to efficiently scan thousands of components.
