Description
The FLIR C5 Compact Thermal Camera is a professional pocket-sized thermal imaging camera designed to help users find hidden problems faster, document issues clearly, and share inspection results with ease.
Compact enough to carry on every job, the FLIR C5 combines true thermal imaging, a built-in visual camera, MSX image enhancement, Wi-Fi connectivity, cloud storage, and a rugged jobsite-ready design in one easy-to-use inspection tool.
The FLIR C5 is ideal for professional use in:
- Electrical inspections
- Building diagnostics
- HVAC inspections
- Plumbing checks
- Maintenance troubleshooting
- Moisture investigation
- Insulation assessment
- Energy auditing
- Facility maintenance
- General thermal fault finding
The FLIR C5 features a 160 x 120 thermal detector, offering 19,200 pixels of true thermal detail.
This allows users to identify heat patterns and temperature differences that are not visible to the naked eye.
The camera is useful for detecting:
- Overheating electrical components
- Faulty connections
- Air leaks
- Insulation gaps
- Plumbing issues
- Moisture-related temperature differences
- HVAC faults
- Mechanical issues
- Building maintenance problems
- Hidden thermal faults
Whether inspecting electrical panels, checking mechanical systems, assessing building performance, or documenting repairs, the FLIR C5 gives users a clearer view of potential problems before they become more serious.
A key advantage of the FLIR C5 is FLIR's patented MSX Multi-Spectral Dynamic Imaging technology.
MSX adds visual edge detail from the built-in camera onto the thermal image, making thermal photos easier to understand and interpret.
Instead of viewing a basic heat map alone, users can see important outlines, labels, shapes, edges, and structural details overlaid onto the thermal image.
This makes it easier to identify exactly where a fault is located and creates clearer images for reports, customer communication, and repair documentation.
The FLIR C5 also includes a built-in 5MP visual camera, allowing users to capture standard reference images alongside thermal images.
This is especially useful when documenting issues for:
- Clients
- Property managers
- Maintenance teams
- Contractors
- Facilities managers
- Insurance records
- Internal reporting
The camera also includes an integrated LED worklight, making it easier to inspect dark, confined, or poorly lit areas.
This is helpful when working inside:
- Electrical cabinets
- Ceiling spaces
- Service rooms
- Plant rooms
- Under counters
- Behind equipment
- Mechanical rooms
- Low-light workspaces
For faster diagnostics, the FLIR C5 includes 1-Touch Level/Span adjustment.
This allows users to quickly improve image contrast and highlight the temperature area of interest with a single tap.
By making important temperature differences easier to see, 1-Touch Level/Span helps speed up inspections and supports more confident decision-making in the field.
The FLIR C5 also makes reporting and image management easier with FLIR Ignite cloud connectivity.
Using Wi-Fi, images can be uploaded directly from the camera to the FLIR Ignite cloud, where they can be stored, organized, accessed, shared, and used to create professional reports.
This is especially useful for:
- Contractors
- Technicians
- Inspectors
- Electricians
- HVAC professionals
- Facilities teams
- Maintenance professionals
- Service providers
The FLIR C5 is designed to simplify inspection workflows from capture to reporting.
Users can capture thermal images, visual images, and MSX-enhanced images, then upload them for easy access from a mobile device or desktop.
This helps reduce manual file handling and supports faster report creation.
The FLIR C5 measures object temperatures from -20 C to 400 C, making it suitable for a wide range of professional inspection and troubleshooting applications.
It is useful for checking electrical systems, HVAC equipment, mechanical components, plumbing systems, building materials, and general maintenance areas.
The compact pocket-sized design makes the FLIR C5 easy to carry in a tool bag, work vehicle, or inspection kit.
Despite its small size, it is built for real-world professional environments.
The FLIR C5 is IP54 rated for protection against dust and water and designed to withstand a 2 m drop, making it a practical tool for everyday inspection work.
