By providing the industry with access to this groundbreaking technology, we can help improve the safety of professionals on the job.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FLIR Systems announces the FLIR GF77 Gas Find IR, its first uncooled thermal camera designed for detecting methane.
