The Thermal Viewer (FI-TVIEW)

The Thermal Viewer (FI-TVIEW) is a lightweight, high-performance infrared thermal camera designed to support first responders and fire professionals with accurate, real-time temperature monitoring in critical situations. With three imaging modes and a wide temperature measurement range, it enables rapid risk assessment and informed decision-making during fire incidents, particularly electric vehicle (EV) fires.

Performance and Application

Using infrared radiation, the Thermal Viewer visualizes temperature differences by converting heat signatures into clear images. Hot areas are displayed in yellow–orange tones, while cooler areas appear in blue or purple, allowing users to quickly identify hotspots and temperature escalation.

• Temperature measurement range: -20 °C to 1,000 °C (-5 °F to 1,800 °F)

• Supports real-time assessment of fire development

• Helps determine when additional Aerosol Units are required to control heat and flames during EV fires

Image Modes

The FI-TVIEW features three image modes for flexible operation in different environments:

• Thermal

• Visual

• Fusion (combined thermal and visual image)

These modes improve situational awareness and target identification in both low-visibility and complex fire scenarios.

Camera and Data Capabilities

• Digital camera resolution: 300,000 pixels

• Image memory: 216 GB

• PC software analysis for post-incident review and reporting

The device supports high and low temperature tracking, as well as temperature alerts, enabling proactive fire control decisions.

Design and Usability

• Lightweight and portable for field use

• Ultra-long battery life: over 7 hours

• Integrated LED light for improved target focus

• Designed for reliability in demanding operational environments
