Thermal Imaging
Cameras
Developed for firefighters, provide vital insight and are easy to operate with only one hand
Thermal imaging cameras by Dräger are valuable tools for orientation when fire, smoke, and darkness make navigation difficult.
Our thermal imaging cameras that have been specially developed for firefighters, provide vital insight and are easy to operate with only one hand. Features such as snapshot function or laser pointer provide the orientation you need. The excellent image quality and the thermal imaging cameras’ large window, helps to find persons or hotspots – even in bright light and firefighting incidences.
Thermal Imaging Cameras
Dräger UCF® 6000
The robust thermal imaging camera Dräger UCF® 8000 delivers first-rate image quality and detailed precision. The camera is intrinsically safe and approved for use in potentially explosive atmospheres including zone 1 according to ATEX.
Crystal clear images
The thermal imaging camera Dräger UCF 8000 delivers excellent images to firefighters even if visibility is less than optimal. A resolution of 384 x 288 pixel, as well as a 2 x zoom, provide a detailed impression of the situation. When the current image is always right in front of your eyes, rooms and the immediate vicinity are searched quickly and safely.
Better overview, more details
The risk of overlooking a detail is especially likely and a problem in difficult situations. Thanks to the “application switch” (application-specific operating modes), the Dräger UCF 8000 makes it possible to optimize the image display of the camera for the specific task at hand. For example, the camera’s display can be optimized for finding persons or finding sources of fire.
One of three additional operating modes is quickly selected just by pressing a button:
- Fire (firefighting)
- Persons (search and rescue)
- ThermalScan (searching for hotspots)
This additional selection provides firefighters with better insights in any situation.
Extremely robust
This camera is reliable even in the roughest and toughest environments and with the most demanding applications. Equipped with an almost indestructible housing, the Dräger UCF 8000 is heat-resistant and withstands usage-specific mechanical stresses with ease. Due to their high protection class of IP67, Dräger UCF 8000 cameras are resistant to typical conditions encountered during an operation such as water and dust. Modern lithium-ion battery technology yields operating times of up to four hours and provides users with the peace of mind needed during long runs.
Ex protection for safety
An explosive atmosphere may be prevalent especially for calls where there is no fire. This means the equipment used must not be a source of ignition. The Dräger UCF 8000 is the tool of choice even in these types of situations. The device is intrinsically safe and approved for use in potentially explosive atmospheres including zone 1 according to ATEX.
Continued recording with a full memory card
Should the recording capacity of approx. two hours be exhausted, the black box of the UCF 8000, just like the UCF 7000, guarantees further use of the thermal imaging video. If the memory is full, the camera will simply record over the beginning of the recording. The recording continues automatically.
Dräger UCF® 7000
Easy to use with one hand only. See more and make better decisions with optimal display options provided by the Dräger UCF® 7000 thermal imaging camera. The camera is intrinsically safe (ATEX zone 1) and offers the maximum level of safety and reliability in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Made for professionals
Better overview, more details
The Dräger UCF 7000 delivers excellent images to firefighters even if visibility is less than optimal. A resolution of 160 x 120 pixel, as well as a 2x zoom, provide a detailed impression of the situation. When the current image is always right in front of your eyes, rooms and the immediate vicinity are searched quickly and safely.

Standard USB interface
The Dräger UCF 7000 is supplied with USB 2.0 interface by default, which makes it possible to configure the camera (e.g. setting an individual start image) and transfer the thermal image directly to a PC. Recorded images and video sequences used for documentation purposes can also be transferred to a PC.

Dräger UCF® 9000
Always remain focused: The thermal imaging camera Dräger UCF® 9000 is thermal imaging and digital camera in one. It ensures you are well equipped even for complex tasks – from fire fighting and hazardous substance operations in Ex zone 1 to the monitoring and documentation of training.
Always have a hand free
Like all Dräger UCF thermal imaging cameras, the UCF 9000 is a compact design. The holding hand also operates all functions. Buttons and keys are quickly selected with the thumb or index finger. With its robust support the UCF is conveniently at hand even while you are crawling on all fours: Simply support yourself against the ground with the device’s crawlplate support.

- Fire (fire fighting)
- Persons (search and rescue)
- Thermal Scan (searching for hotspots)
- Outdoors (searching for persons outside)
- Hazardous Goods (leak detection and level indicators)
- Scan PLUS (searching for heat sources – in real image)
- Normal Image (video camera)
- User-defined 1
Additional advantages
- intuitive operation: easy and safe handling even under rough conditions
- display brightness adjusts automatically to the environment
- easy-to-read status information
- modern lithium-ion batteries provide approx. four hours operating time
- automatic standby for longer battery life
- different attachment options (e.g. neck strap or retractable lanyard)
- wide range of accessories (e.g. transport case, vehicle installation kit, tripods, etc.)
Crystal clear images
Even when the visibility is extremely poor, the UCF 9000 will still deliver first-rate image quality and detailed precision. With its 384 x 288 pixels it offers an extremely high resolution and thus provides 44 % more detail than other fire fighting thermal imaging cameras. Its 57° field of view (horizontal) provides you with an extra-large overview of the situation. To bring the scene in even closer, you have the option of using the 4x zoom in addition to the 2x zoom.
The UCF basic functions
Laser pointer:
use the pointer to mark heat sources or display the fill level of tanks
Snapshot-function:
look around corners and freeze the image to assess the situation
Extended dynamic range:
clearly detect persons and objects even near fires
Quick shutter:
don’t miss information because the detector is calibrating itself or when switching to a different operating mode
