The Flir Si1‑LD acoustic imaging camera was recently named “Product of the Year 2026” in the Measurement Technology category by Computer & Automation.
Launched in March 2025, the Flir Si1‑LD has quickly become a trusted tool for maintenance teams worldwide. Its advanced acoustic imaging technology enables fast, reliable detection of hidden compressed‑air leaks, helping organisations reduce energy waste, cut operating costs, and bring greater transparency to their maintenance workflows.
Best‑In‑Class Leak Detection Technology
The Si1‑LD stands out for its unique combination of performance, easy operability, and integrated analytics:
- High‑Sensitivity Acoustic Imaging: A high‑performance MEMS microphone array captures ultrasonic signals with exceptional clarity, delivering accurate leak detection even in loud industrial environments.
- Bandpass Filtering for Precision: Smart filtering isolates selected ultrasonic frequencies to remove background noise and ensure reliable results.
- Designed for Fast, Safe Adoption: Lightweight and ergonomically balanced for one‑handed operation, the Si1‑LD requires minimal training and is easy to use across maintenance teams.
- Integrated Analytics & Reporting: Users can quantify leaks in real time and generate detailed reports through Flir Thermal Studio or connected cloud services, simplifying documentation and supporting fast, data-driven decision-making.
A Milestone Award for the Si-Series
Since entering the market, the Si1‑LD has helped organisations identify and prioritise leak repairs, measure true cost savings, and elevate the overall efficiency of compressed‑air systems.
Flir believes that this award highlights the meaningful impact acoustic technology has already had across manufacturing, processing plants, and industrial facilities.
