Fast Integration 640x512 / 15μM MCT MWIR Cooled Thermal Module Into
Drones
Product Description
GAVIN615B is a cooled mid wave thermal imaging module developed by
Global Sensor Technology (GST). It consists of a 640x512 / 15µm
HgCdTe MWIR IR detector with RS046 cryocooler, hardware electronics
and various image processing algorithms are also embedded already
to present sharp and clear thermal images.
Configured with RS046 cryocooler, the GAVIN615B is very compact in
size, measuring 125x92x67mm in dimension and weighing less than
650g in weight. It’s stable power consumption is as low as 12w.
With industrial standard cameralink interface, infrared camera or
system integrator can design or integrate their own complete camera
easily based on the GAVIN615B thermal imaging module.
It provides various continuous zoom lenses for customers to choose
from: 60~240mm/F4; 15~300mm/F4; 21~420mm/F4; 35~690mm/F4, which is
suitable for long range monitoring applications.

About GST Infrared
FAQs
1. What is a cryocooler used for?
Cryocoolers are machines that keep sensors extremely cold so that
thermal images can be taken on long-term missions. In many high-end
applications, the sensors that capture images require extremely low
temperatures.
2. What are the main factors to measure the quality of Cryocooler?
Long battery life and reliable operation are main factors to
measure the quality of a cryocooler. GSTiR cryocooler has a wide
operating temperature range and excellent reliability. Its MTTF
(Mean Time to Failures) has reached to 10,000 hours, which meets
24*7 boot operation requirements.
3. What is thermal sensitivity?
Thermal Sensitivity, also named NETD (Noise Equivalent Temperature
Difference), is a key parameter for evaluating medium wave (MWIR)
and long wave (LWIR) thermal imaging cameras. It is directly
related to the clarity measured by the thermal imager. It is a
numerical value representing the signal-to-noise ratio of the
temperature difference and measured in milliKelvins (mK). The
smaller the thermal sensitivity value, the higher the sensitivity
and the clearer the image.
