Thermal Imaging CameraHeat Sensing Equipment
A Thermal Imaging Camera - often referred to as a TIC - is a device used by Emergency Services to detect differences in temperature of a selected area. This may be hot spots in walls at structure fires, fires burning underground at rural fires, through to location of casualties at incidents. The CFS have many of these cameras now located around the State to ensure hot spots / hidden fires at scenes can be identified and extinguished. There are two models used in the CFS, one is a structural and the other a rural type with different capabilies for the conditions encountered.
