The Argus ® Mi-TIC STORM is the world’s smallest thermal imager to feature a large format, high resolution display for advanced fire fighting applications. The camera provides a crystal clear image with a superb dynamic range: you can clearly view extremely high temperatures upto 1100ºC (2000ºF) and at the same time see very low temperature objects, which is ideal for casualty searches.

Every Argus ® Mi-TIC STORM is supplied with a unique dual use desktop/in-truck charger station which securely retains and charges both the thermal imager and a spare battery. The charger stations can be daisy-chained together, up to a maximum of 6 units.

PERSONAL

Weighing approximately 830g (29 oz) the Argus ® Mi-TIC STORM is a small format thermal imager that can be easily and comfortably held in the palm of your hand. Unlike many thermal imagers, the Argus ® Mi-TIC

STORM design allows it to be worn in multiple ways – in the hand, inside a pocket, clipped outside a pocket, clipped to a lanyard or hung around the neck.

SIMPLE

With a thumb operated green on/off button and superb start up time of 5 seconds, the Argus ® Mi-TIC STORM is simple to use.

SAFE

The use of Lithium Iron Phosphate technology ensures the Argus ®

Mi-TIC STORM delivers 2 hours of battery life over 1,000s of cycles.

They are inherently safe due to the use of patented nanophosphate ® technology.
