The camera provides a crystal clear image with a superb dynamic range up to 2000°F (1100°C). You can clearly view extremely high temperatures without whiteout and at the same time still see very low temperature objects, which is ideal for casualty searches.

The Mi-TIC S has an enhanced feature set that includes a laser pointer, electronic compass, and Heat Seeker (hottest spot identifier) and Cold Seeker (coldest spot identifier) technology.

Applications include: Ventilation location selection, search and rescue (fire and non-fire), seat of fire localization, overhaul, size-up, interior structural firefighting, hot spot localization, cold spot localization, directional awareness.

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. Multiple charger stations can be daisy-chained together up to a maximum of 6 units.

Weighing approximately 870g (1.9lb), the Mi-TIC S is a small footprint thermal imager that can be easily and comfortably held in the palm of your hand. Unlike many thermal imagers, the Mi-TIC S design allows it to be worn in multiple ways – in the hand, inside a pocket, clipped outside a pocket, clipped to a lanyard or hung around the neck.

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