FLIR E98

Advanced Thermal Imaging Camera

The FLIR E98 is our first pistol-grip camera with 640 × 480 thermal resolution so inspectors can survey high-voltage, hazardous targets safely and quickly diagnose electrical and mechanical failures. Interchangeable AutoCal™ lenses offer complete coverage of near and distant targets, with the laser distance meter ensuring the crisp focus needed for accurate temperature measurement. Onboard FLIR Inspection Route feature runs pre-planned survey routes to help inspectors stay organized when surveying large or multiple locations. For a limited time, the purchase of an E98 camera includes a 3-month subscription to FLIR Thermal Studio Pro and FLIR Route Creator.

Enhanced Resolution, Faster Inspections
The 640 × 480 thermal resolution plus FLIR UltraMax® and MSX® image enhancement ensure the E96 produces the most virbrant, easiest-to-interpret images in its class.
Interchangeable, auto-calibrating lenses—from telephoto to wide-angle—allow users to target electrical hot spots safely, check for mechanical faults, and survey roofs or building envelopes quickly.
Onboard integration with FLIR routing software*, a built-in mic for voice annotation, and report generation features all help the E96 streamline your workday.
