Firefighting Equipment: New argus® Mi-TIC S Thermal Imaging Camera Goes Live

Firefighter using argus® Mi-TIC S thermal imaging cameras.

The first argus® Mi-TIC S thermal imaging cameras are now being shipped to customers.

Avon Protection acquired argus and their world-leading thermal imaging products in October this year and are now shipping products to first responder and fire customers worldwide.

The Mi-TIC S the safest, lightest and easiest-to-use thermal imaging camera on the market. As the world’s smallest thermal imager to feature a large-format, high-resolution display, it is also the most advanced thermal imager for firefighters ever developed.

The camera provides a crystal clear image with a superb dynamic range: you can clearly view extremely high temperatures up to 1100ºC (2000ºF) and at the same time see very low temperature objects, which is ideal for casualty searches.

With a thumb-operated green on/off button and superb start up time of 5 seconds, the Mi-TIC S is simple to use.

Every Mi-TIC S is supplied with a unique dual use desktop/in-truck charger station which securely retains and charges both the thermal imager and a spare battery. The charger stations can be daisy-chained together, up to a maximum of 6 units.

Designed for everyday use, the Mi-TIC S is lightweight, simple to use, very robust and with the new additional features as standard offers exceptional value for money.
