FLIR C8 Compact 320 × 240 Thermal Camera with MSX and FLIR Ignite Enabled

The Flir C8 is a thermal imaging camera designed for electrical and mechanical maintenance, vehicle inspections, and other troubleshooting applications.

It boasts an impressive 320 × 240 pixels in thermal resolution (76,800 measurement points), a thermal sensitivity of 50mK, and with MSX® detail enhancement, the FLIR C8 captures sharp thermal images for accurate diagnostics.  You can quickly identify hidden problems with isotherm (colour alarms), which instantly detects if a temperature is exceeding a threshold. 

Using the built-in Flir Ignite™ cloud connectivity allows direct data transfer, storage, and backup, so images are always available on all your devices, as well as live streaming via USB. 

The 3.5 inch integrated touchscreen is simple to use, so you can quickly inspect, document repairs, and share evidence with customers.

With the FLIR C8 in your pocket, you’ll be ready anytime to find hot fuses, air leaks, plumbing issues, and more.
