Page 8: Introduction
Introduction The FLIR Si124 is a standalone system for acoustic image measurements and signal analysis. As a standalone system, no additional equipment is needed for basic usage of the device. The FLIR Si124 uses 124 microphones to form a very precise acoustic image in the de- sired direction. -

Page 18: User Interface
User interface The camera supports the following application modes: • Air mode is used for localization of pressurized air leaks. • Power mode is used for localization and classification of high-voltage partial discharges. The available functions, settings, and real-time analysis information in the user interface depend on the selected application mode. -
Page 19: Take Snapshot
User interface The strength color mode shows each sound source with a single color according to the intensity of the sound source. The strength color mode is active in the Air application mode. In addition to the heatmap, the location of the strongest sound source is shown with a small crosshair. -
Page 20: Zoom
User interface Press the upload button to access automatic upload settings and to trigger manual upload. Use the Upload to cloud function to enable/disable automatic upload of snapshots to the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service. If you have disabled the automatic data upload, you can manually upload data to the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer cloud service using the Upload to cloud now function. -
Page 21: Settings
User interface To see weaker sound sources (in either single-source or multi-source mode), position and rotate the camera so that stronger sound sources are outside the field of view. You can also use the zoom button to limit the field of view. 8.7 Settings Press the settings button to show the available settings: •... -

Page 23: Real-Time Analysis
User interface 8.9 Real-time analysis Real-time analysis results are shown at the top of the graphical user interface. The level in decibels of sound arriving from the strongest source (shown with a crosshair) is pre- sented. The real-time analysis also provides additional information about problems re- lated to the specific application. -
Page 24: Usb Update
User interface 8.13 USB update In case the remote update feature cannot be used, the camera can also be updated us- ing a USB memory stick. Place the software update file provided by FLIR Systems in the root directory of the memory stick (i.e., not in any folder). Do not rename the file. Open the USB port cover on top of the camera and insert the memory stick in the USB port. -
Page 25: Application-Specific Features
Application-specific features The typical applications of the FLIR Si124 are leak detection (locating and estimating the size of compressed air leaks) and partial discharge detection (locating and analyzing partial discharges in power grids). The availability of the features is dependent on the camera model: •... -
Page 26: Partial Discharge Detection
Application-specific features • Currency The currency in which to display the leak cost estimate can be selected from the avail- able options. • Energy cost If the leak cost estimate for compressed air leaks is based on energy costs, you must enter the applicable price of energy here. -
Page 27: Filter
Application-specific features pattern is shown in a small window. Press on the window to enlarge it. Press once more to make it small again. The severity assessment in the FLIR Acoustic Camera Viewer re- lies on the user setting the distance to the leak correctly (see section 9.2.2 Distance). 9.2.1 Filter The Norm filter filters out low frequency background noise, while the High and Ultr filters both filter out all audible background noise, concentrating on ultrasonic frequencies... -
Page 28: Autodistance
Application-specific features • High (20 to 30 kHz) Filters out most background noise sources with a good detection distance. • Full (2 to 65 kHz) This filter is only available when enabling all available filters from the advanced set- tings. It utilizes the full frequency range of 2 to 65 kHz. This filter is not ideal for finding leaks, as it is affected by low-frequency background noise and might not be able to pick up very quiet sound sources. -
Page 29: Usage Techniques
Usage techniques 10.1 General usage Attach the neck strap to the two attachment points (11) on the camera handle. Carry the camera with the neck strap over your shoulder to free your hands for using the camera. If you use the external battery pack, keep the battery inside of the carrying bag and carry the bag with the strap over your shoulder. - Page 30 Usage techniques The image shows an example of one actual sound source and three reflections shown by the camera in multi-source mode. The actual sound source lies on the floor, while there are three reflections shown on the walls. When the camera is moved around, the location of the actual sound source remains the same, while the reflections move around on the walls, and are not seen from all angles.
