Uncooled detectors are easy to use, neither cooling nor heatsinks are needed.
This type of detector is very convenient to use due to lack of cooler driver, and applicable types of housing that may be quickly connected to the amplifying stages (i.e. BNC housing ).
Uncooled detectors do not need any additional window and/or encapsulation due to ambient operating temperature. However, for more stable work in harsh environment- i.e. high humidity, encapsulation with noble gas atmosphere and window is recommended.
Presented device is low cost and quick in delivery solution for not tall applications.
