FLIR K1 Situational Awareness Camera
FLIR: K1 Situational Awareness Camera
Description
Situational Awareness in the Palm of Your Hand
The FLIR K1 is a rugged, compact thermal imaging camera (TIC) designed for fast scene assessment and crew coordination in smoke-filled or dark environments. Whether used by fire officers, inspectors, or first responders, the K1 provides crucial visual and thermal data with its 160 × 120 thermal resolution and built-in visible-light flashlight.
Ideal for 360° size-ups, search operations, and post-fire inspections, the K1 helps users maintain spatial awareness without losing line of sight. With internal image storage for up to 10,000 thermal/visual sets, users can also document findings for reporting or analysis. The camera’s IP67-rated water resistance, drop-tested durability, and 5.5-hour battery life ensure reliable performance in tough conditions—from structure fires to vehicle accidents and wildland scenes.
