Thermal videoscope FLIR MSX, rectangular probe tip, VS290-32

Thermal videoscope with MSX real time image enhancement FLIR 160x120px up to 400degC, 2m probe with rectangular tip in set
Product code: VS290-32

The FLIR VS290-32 is an industrial thermal and visual videoscope designed to help professionals quickly and safely find hidden dangers in difficult-to-access locations, especially underground electrical distribution vaults.
Featuring a 160x120px true thermal imager and FLIR MSX® (Multi-Spectral Dynamic Imaging), the VS290-32 enables users to catch hot spots before a failure occurs to maintain uptime.
The 2m camera probe makes it possible to easily inspect through small openings – improving productivity and reducing diagnostic time.
Plus, the CAT IV 600V safety rating makes the VS290-32 a rugged and versatile tool for the most demanding environments in utility, manufacturing, and building maintenance applications.

Inspect inaccessible areas safely
Quickly find hidden faults without entering difficult-toaccess locations and other hard-to-reach spaces

• Troubleshoot problems from a safe distance with the 160x120 px true thermal imager and 2 MP visual camera
• Easily maneuver the narrow 2 m field-replaceable camera probe to inspect underground electrical distribution vaults, inside large gearboxes, motors, attics, crawl spaces, and other industrial applications
• Instantly recognize the location of a temperature issue with FLIR MSX, which extracts scene details from the built-in visual camera and embosses them onto the full thermal image

Identify, document, share
Improve workflow and communicate potential issues before they become major problems

• View findings clearly on the large 3.5-inch color display, and use color alarms (isotherms) to quickly identify areas of concern
• Save images and videos using the included SD memory card, and upload to a PC via USB-C Cable
• Quickly create and share reports with team members to prioritize repairs using FLIR Thermal Studio

Versatile, rugged and reliable
Use the VS290-32 in the most demanding environments

• Provides a high level of protection against dust and water (IP67 rated camera tip, IP54 rated base unit and probe)
• Easily replace the camera probe while in the field
• Conduct electrical inspections safely (CAT IV 600 V rated)
