FLIR 427-0102-24-00S FH-617 R 35MM <9Hz Thermal Imaging Camera
When perimeter security demands 24/7 threat detection beyond the limits of visible light, thermal imaging becomes non-negotiable. The FLIR FH-617 R delivers radiometric thermal surveillance with a 35mm lens optimized for mid-range monitoring applications where you need to detect human-sized targets at significant distances in complete darkness, through smoke, or during adverse weather conditions that render conventional cameras useless.
Key Features
- 35mm thermal lens provides extended detection range for perimeter and parking lot applications
- Sub-9Hz refresh rate compliant with ITAR export regulations for international deployments
- Radiometric thermal sensor captures temperature data for analytics and verification
- Thermal imaging operates in total darkness without supplemental illumination
- Detects targets through fog, smoke, dust, and light foliage that defeats visible cameras
- Fixed lens design eliminates motorized components for enhanced reliability
- Suitable for critical infrastructure, industrial facilities, and high-security perimeters
The 35mm lens configuration strikes a balance between detection range and field of view, making this unit appropriate for monitoring fence lines, vehicle access points, and open areas where intrusion detection cannot rely on lighting conditions. The sub-9Hz frame rate designation indicates compliance with export control regulations, expanding deployment options for projects with international components or government facilities with specific acquisition requirements.
Radiometric capability means this camera captures actual temperature data from the scene, not just a thermal image. This enables advanced analytics including temperature-based alarm triggers, heat signature verification to reduce false alarms from animals or debris, and integration with VMS platforms that support thermal metadata. In installations where environmental conditions regularly compromise visible camera performance—coastal fog, industrial dust, nighttime operations without lighting infrastructure—thermal detection provides the operational reliability that security operations demand.
