Ruselectronics holding has developed next generation heat-resistant thermal imaging systems capable of withstanding extreme temperatures up to 1800 °С. The equipment may be used to control melting processes, including several high-melting point metals – for example, stainless steel. The equipment has already underwent testing, the supply shall commence before the end of 2024. 

The upgraded video surveillance system has been developed by Television Scientific Research Institute included in Ruselectronics. This includes a next generation heat-resistant camera with a proprietary infrared imager. Thus, the peak operating temperature of the camera was increased from 1600°С to 1800°С and purchase of similar foreign products was avoided. Also, the upgraded camera received an updated air and water cooling system.

The equipment is designed for continuous remote monitoring of molten metal, burner flame and condition of high-temperature furnace internals. In case of emergency, for example, loss of water, air or power supply, light and sound alarm is activated, and the camera is automatically removed from the high-temperature area.
