CAP-CT-4-US

The CAP-CT-4-US infrared window, equipped with a versatile port for ultrasound inspections, is the ideal way to identify electrical faults. Industrial applications require solutions that meet numerous criteria where safety and performance are of the utmost importance. To accommodate this demand, IRISS took their transparent, CAP-CT-4 and opaque, CAP-CT-4-US, and added the benefits of ultrasound (US) inspection to the window. The award-winning CAP-CT-4-US comes equipped with a square 4” IR window and a US port both on one easy-to-install panel. The viewing area of the CAP-CT-4-US offers a 30% increase in FOV over round windows but also provides a method for accessing quality acoustics data that easily identifies potentially hazardous faults such as arcing, tracking and corona in electrical distribution systems and switchgear.

Unparalleled Field of View

Unlike the round infrared windows the large format IRISS CAP-CT-4-US Series and custom infrared windows have a far superior field of view. The CAP-CT-4-US Series has a large FOV which gives the thermographer the ability of infinite viewing angles inside the switchgear.v

Customizable

There is no such thing as a standard IR inspection so why should there only be a standard IR Window? IRISS is the only IR window manufacturer with solutions for unique applications.

UL Listed

Large format replacement panels like the CAP-CT-4-US Series are now UL Listed replacement components (UL File E 491496). The CAP-CT-4-US Series has an oversize Field of View (FOV) giving the thermographer infinite viewing angles within the bus system.

Features

Durable and Rugged

Polymer based IR windows are far more able to resist the mechanical stresses applied to IR window that are fitted to electrical distribution equipment. It was IRISS that first came to market with industrial grade IR windows that could meet the mandatory impact and load testing requirements of UL, CSA, IEEE, IEC, CE testing that could never be passed by any crystal based IR window.

Tested and Certified

IRISS IR windows are the most certified windows in the industry with IEEE (impact & load), UL, cUL, Lloyds, CSA 22.2 14-13 for industrial control equipment. Our marine certifications are Lloyds, DNV and ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) credentials. IRISS IR windows are also arc tested to IEC 62271-200 Arc Flash Spec test 1.1 Second Duration, IEC 60262271-200: 63kA, IEC 60298 Appendix: 63kA, IEEE C37.20.7 Type 2B: 63kA,

Proudly Made in the United States

IRISS manufactures and assembles all products at our global headquarters located in Bradenton, FL.

Unconditional Lifetime Warranty

The IRISS Unconditional lifetime warranty is unique in the IR industry as it not only applies not only to the workmanship of the window housing but also applies to the durability and stability of the optic in the proposed environment. No other manufacturer can offer this because crystal optics will fail over time, and are only able to at best offer a limited lifetime warranty for manufacturing defects
