Description

FLIR K2

Affordable Thermal Imaging for Every Firefighter

The FLIR K2 is a compact, lightweight, and highly affordable thermal imaging camera (TIC) that puts life-saving technology into the hands of every firefighter. Built for severe conditions, the K2 provides reliable thermal vision with a 160 × 120 resolution and Multi-Spectral Dynamic Imaging (MSX®) that overlays visual details onto thermal images—enhancing clarity without compromising heat data.

Designed for intuitive, single-button operation—even with gloved hands—the K2 is water-resistant, drop-tested, and built to operate in extreme temperatures up to 500°C (932°F). It mounts easily to turnout gear, making it a go-to tool for rapid situational awareness, victim location, and hazard identification in low-visibility environments.
