FLIR C8 Compact Infrared Camera with Ignite Cloud
Traditional thermal inspections can be slow, unclear, and hard to document, relying on manual processes and risking missed issues. These inefficiencies lead to higher maintenance costs, delayed repairs, and reduced productivity. The Flir C8 solves these challenges with a rugged, easy-to-use form factor that puts powerful high- resolution thermography into your hands, ensuring accurate, efficient, and standardized inspections anywhere you need them.
Reliable, Faster Inspections
Identify issues quickly and with confidence thanks to a high resolution, high thermal sensitivity, and isotherm alarming that support consistent, repeatable results.
Seamless Cloud Integration
Images automatically upload to Flir Ignite for secure storage, easier access, and standardized reporting, reducing manual steps and data loss.
Simplified Reporting
Prebuilt inspection templates within Ignite Pro accelerate analysis and documentation, making it easy to share findings with teams or clients.
Compact and Rugged Design
A durable, easy-to-handle form factor meets industrial standards for drop and ingress protection, ensuring the C8 is ready for demanding environments.
Key Applications
Electrical and Mechanical Maintenance
- Quickly detect electrical faults and mechanical issues in industrial plants, commercial facilities, and utilities to prevent downtime and extend equipment life.
Building Diagnostics
- Perform thorough inspections of electrical systems, HVAC components, plumbing, and structural elements to identify hidden problems and improve building performance.
Vehicle Inspections
- Easily inspect engines, exhaust systems, and other hard-to-reach automotive components to detect wear and potential failures before they escalate
