In the heat of the battle, a thermal imaging camera is indispensable for quickly visualizing the plan of attack, locate hot spots, and save lives. Ideally, every engine and truck company should have at least one high-performance TIC on hand. Since FLIR K-Series arrived on the scene, now that’s more feasible.
Affordable K-Series TICs offer new, easier ways to see more clearly in the darkest, smokiest environments by showing big, bright FLIR images to maneuver more strategically, stay better oriented, and find victims faster. With greater situational awareness, FLIR K-Series help to improve safety and the likelihood of successful outcomes.
Features
Clear and Crisp Thermal Images
The maintenance-free uncooled microbolometer sensor produces detail-rich images at 320 x 240 pixels (K55 & K65) and 240 x 180 pixels (K45) Thermal images are displayed on a large bright 4” LCD, helping you navigate easier and make more efficient, accurate decisions.
FSX™ Flexible Scene Enhancement (K45, K55, K65 only)
FSX enhances K45, K55, and K65 thermal images through real-time digital processing inside the camera. The result is an ultra-sharp image that shows extraordinary structural, edge, and other instantly-recognizable detail. This helps make it much easier for firefighters and rescue teams to find their way through the smokiest, darkest environments, and to instantly identify targets in scenes with extreme temperature dynamics.
NFPA® - Compliant K65
The K65 is an advanced, feature-rich thermal imaging camera that is designed to be fully compliant with the National Fire Protection Association® (NFPA) 1801-2013 Standard for Thermal Imagers covering usability, image quality, and durability for firefighting.
NEW! Expanded Warranty
All new K-Series cameras are protected by our exclusive FLIR 2-5-10 Warranty that includes 2 years of coverage on batteries, five years on the camera, and ten years on the detector.
In-Camera Video Storage (K55 & K65 only)
Not only can the new FLIR K55 and the new K65 save hundreds of still images, they can record and store 200 video files in clips of 5 minutes (maximum) each.K55 and K65 videos can be useful for later analysis and are ideal for training purposes. Playback videos directly from the in-camera archive or download them to your computer via USB.
Extremely Affordable: A Thermal Imaging Camera in Every Fire Truck
FLIR develops and manufactures more thermal imaging cameras than any other company. Thanks to economies of scale, FLIR is able to offer K-Series at an extremely affordable price.
Rugged & Reliable
The K-Series is designed to meet tough operating conditions. It withstands a drop from 2 meters onto a concrete floor, is water resistant (IP67) and fully operating up to +260°C/+500°F for 5 minutes.
Easy-to-Use, Even with Gloves On
An intuitive and simple user interface allows you to focus on the job at hand. FLIR K45, K55, and K65 cameras FLIR K45, K55, and K65 cameras can be controlled by 3 large buttons ideal for a gloved firefighter’s hand.
Produce Simple Reports
Thermal images can be stored in the FLIR K-Series onboard archive (K45, K55, K65 only) and later be used to produce simple reports of what happened at the scene.
