FLIR Si2x-LD Acoustic Imaging Camera for Leak Detection
- Acoustic Imaging Camera for leak detection (hazardous-location rated)
The FLIR Si2x-LD is a specialised ultrasound camera made for detecting gas leaks and mechanical issues in hazardous environments. It‘s certified for use in ATEX Zone 2, meaning it‘s safe to use around flammable gases and vapors.
Safe for Explosive Areas
Designed for industries like oil & gas and chemical plants, the Si2x-LD lets you find issues without the risk of ignition. It meets hazardous-area safety standards, so you can use it in explosive zones (Zone 2 / Class I, Div 2) without needing a hot work permit.
Fast and Accurate Detection
This camera helps you quickly find air and gas leaks – even in noisy areas – by turning sound into images. It also detects mechanical problems like worn bearings or faulty steam traps, helping you prevent breakdowns and save energy.
Tough and High-Tech
Built on the FLIR Si2 platform, the Si2x-LD is tough, explosion-proof, and easy to use with one hand. The FLIR Si2x-LD delivers real-time analysis and captures on-site data with precision, empowering users to make fast, informed decisions.
It includes features like cloud syncing and auto-generated reports, built to handle tough environments.
Long-Range Performance
The Si2x-LD can detect leaks and faults from up to 200 meters (656 feet) away, making it ideal for large industrial sites.
The FLIR Si2x-LD is a high-tech ultrasonic detector that accurately finds and measures compressed air and gas leaks, as well as bearing faults, from up to 200 meters (656 feet) away.
Leaks in pressurised air systems can be hard to spot without ultrasound – but the Si2x-LD makes it easy.
It works well even in noisy environments, thanks to advanced sound filtering. That means you can detect problems clearly, even in loud industrial settings. Acoustic imaging is a smart investment.
Fixing leaks early saves money and reduces downtime. It‘s much cheaper and easier to plan repairs in advance than deal with unexpected breakdowns.
2 in 1 tool...
The Si2x-LD has ‘in-tool‘ and ‘in-software‘ decision support is critical to overcome gaps in user experience and training and enable new tool users to effectively improve plant productivity while reducing safety hazards.
Quantification of compressed air and industrial gas leaks, including estimated leak cost, helps maintenance departments prioritise repairs and makes it easy for maintenance managers to point to the impact their team is having on a company’s bottom line.
Providing mechanical noise analysis tools enables inspectors to determine if a bearing or other piece of rotating equipment is degrading over time. The Si2-LD makes all this possible!
How Manufacturers can benefit:
High energy costs can have a huge impact on a company’s bottom line, especially for manufacturers who rely on compressed air and vacuum systems or use gases such as carbon dioxide in their production process. When these systems leak - it’s like money seeps out along with the air. So being able to see the system leaks, pinpoint the source, and even calculate the energy loss is a game changer!
Find compressed air, vacuum, CO2, and other gas leaks with the Si2x-LD!

Air Leak Detection:
Examples of leaks in systems that can be detected with the FLIR Si2x-LD
- Locating pressurised leaks in compressed air systems
- Compressed gas leaks including CO2, helium, ammonia, hydrogen, methane, nitrogen, and argon
- Vessel testing such as shipping and other sealed container seal testing
- Steam leaks in building heating and power generation systems
- Faults in vacuum systems
Mechanical Fault Detection:
Utilise sound-based technology to detect, localise, and analyse faults in mechanical systems.
This approach is particularly valuable for preventive maintenance and condition monitoring, as it allows for early detection of anomalies before they evolve into serious failures.
Pinpoint the exact location of faults with the Si2x-LD. This acoustic camera reduces the need for extensive manual inspections and disassembly, saving time and labor costs. Additionally, early detection of faults helps prevent catastrophic failures, extending the lifespan of equipment and enhancing overall operational efficiency.
Examples of mechanical faults that can be detected with acoustic imaging:
- Industrial rotating machinery
- Bearings
- Rollers
- Conveyors
- Pulleys
- Compressors
- Motors
