Introduction:
The IRISS CAP-ENV Series redefines predictive maintenance with advanced ultrasound and infrared (IR) inspection solutions engineered to deliver safer, more reliable asset monitoring. The VPDS Ultrasound Sensor enhances energized electrical inspections through an integrated in-panel transducer, improving both operator safety and detection capabilities. The CAP-ENV Series IR Windows, featuring the exclusive Poly-View System, enable seamless thermographic inspections using virtually any infrared camera. Meanwhile, the VP-12-US Acoustic Sensor standardizes ultrasound data collection, delivering consistent, high-quality results regardless of technician experience or equipment enclosure rating. Purpose-built to support Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) programs, the CAP-ENV Series combines safety, accuracy, adaptability and durability to help maintenance teams reduce risk, optimize equipment performance and extend asset life. Serving industries worldwide, IRISS delivers innovative inspection solutions focused on safety, sustainability and resilience, helping organizations create a more reliable and interconnected industrial environment. IRISS infrared windows are arc-flash rated, seismic tested and UL listed as standard. Engineered to withstand the demanding conditions of heavy industry, they are backed by an unconditional lifetime warranty. The patented polymer optic incorporates Fixed and Stable Transmission (FAST) technology, ensuring consistent thermal transmission and accurate readings from the first inspection through the life of the product. The CAP-ENV Series features a reinforced, environmentally sealed door design while providing one of the largest visually clear infrared transmissive viewing areas available. Its exclusive reinforced-polymer optical system allows virtually any thermography camera to inspect energized electrical assets without disturbing equipment, across visual, UV, SWIR, MWIR and LWIR spectra. The larger rectangular viewing area provides an exceptional field of view compared with traditional round IR windows, enabling technicians to capture more comprehensive thermal information in a single inspection. Constructed entirely from stainless steel, the CAP-ENV Series is particularly well suited for demanding outdoor and heavy-industrial applications.
Key Advantages:
Environmentally Sealed Design: An additional layer of protection for both the inspection window and the equipment in environments with harsher conditions.
Unparalleled Field of View: Over 6x the FOV of a 4-inch diameter round window, giving the thermographer the ability of infinite viewing angles inside the switchgear.
Fixed & Stable Transmission: The polymer IR window systems will maintain fixed and stable transmission (FAST) for the life of the installation.
Durable and Rugged: Polymer-based IR windows are far more able to resist the mechanical stresses of electrical and mechanical applications.
Patented Poly-View Optic: Our exclusive polymer technology is unaffected by environmental stresses, and enables visual, IR, and UV inspections.
Arc Safety Tested: Successfully tested to the IEC 62271-200 standard for arc containment on metal-enclosed switchgear to help protect workers from injury or fatality.
Unconditional Lifetime Warranty: The IRISS unconditional lifetime warranty is unique in the IR industry applying to both the IR window housing and optic.
UL Listed: Having passed rigorous standards and testing, our inspection windows are UL Listed (E 491496).
