FLIR K85 – High‑performance handheld thermal imaging for firefighting & emergency response
The FLIR K85 is a high‑performance handheld thermal imaging camera built for firefighting, search and rescue (SAR) and first‑responder operations. Delivering clear, high‑resolution thermal imagery through smoke, darkness and high‑heat environments, the K85 helps crews locate hotspots, navigate compromised structures, identify victims and make rapid decisions during critical moments.
Designed for frontline use, the K85 provides reliable thermal visibility in dynamic fireground conditions—supporting both interior attack operations and SAR missions in low‑visibility or hazardous environments.
