FLIR Kx5 Series

High-Performance TIC (3-Button)

Firefighters need thermal imaging cameras (TICs) that are designed to be rugged and easy to use without sacrificing clarity or performance. FLIR Kx5-Series TICs offer our best image quality and sharpness that’s clear to see in low contrast scenes. This means firefighters can improve their situational awareness and depth perception, and easily navigate through smoky buildings for a more efficient search and rescue and location of the fire scene.  

Kx5 TICs provide outstanding thermal image clarity at high temperatures so you can safely navigate fire scenes. From the K45 to the NFPA® 1801-2021-compliant K65, Flir TICs are designed to withstand the toughest firefighting conditions, whether it’s a two-meter drop, heavy water spray, or blazing hot temperatures.

Kx5 thermal cameras help incident commanders with their strategic plan of attack, visualizing the scene and locating dangerous hot spots so they can make better decisions when directing resources.
