FLIR GF306
SFs Optical Gas Imaging Camera
The FLiR GF306 is an optical gas imaging camera that visualizes and
pinpoints SF6 and other gas emissions without the need to shut down
operations. This portab le, non-contact system allows you to quickly scan
wide areas for leaks, so you can begin repa irs sooner.
Su lfu r Hexafluoride (SF 6 ) is used in the electric power industry as an insulator
and quenching medium for gas-insu lated substations and circuit breakers.
These facilities have thousands of connections and fittings that need regular
inspection, but more than 80% of a gas leaks occur in less than 1% of
those components. As a result, crews spend more than 99% of their time
inspecting safe, non-leaking parts.
The FLiR GF306 reduces revenue loss by detecting gas leaks efficiently, at a
safe distance away from high-voltage areas.

Invisible gases look li ke smoke through the lens of the GF306, making
even the smallest emissions easy to see. Unlike a traditional "sniffer", the
camera al lows you to survey large areas quickly and effectively and see into
spaces that are difficult to reach with non-contact measurement tools. The
GF306 is capab le of detecting not only SF6 , but several other gases including
Anhydrous Ammonia (N H31. and Eth ylene (C 2H4).
Optical Gas Imaging and Thermography in One
The GF306 accurate ly measures temperatures up to 500°C as well as detects
gas. Integrate this camera into your facility's predictive maintenance program
for benefits beyond leak detection.
Meet EPA Regulations
One pound of SF6 has the same global warming impact of 24,000 pounds of
CO 2 . It has an atmospheric lifespan of 3,200 years, so even sma ll amounts of
SF 6 can have a significant impact on globa l climate change.
The US Environmental Protection Agency includes optical gas imaging as an
accepted leak detection technique in its Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule.
