High-Efficiency Handheld Thermal Camera with SuperIR and 96×96 px sensor

HikMicro ECO-V: handheld thermal camera with SuperIR (240x240 px) technology and Fusion mode (thermal/visual). It measures up to 550°C, gives 8 hours of battery life and stands up to hard use with an IP54 protection rating.

SKU 6090-HIKECOVEAN 8219671111973Brand: HikMicroProduct type: Thermal imaging & temperature,

Description

The HikMicro ECO-V is the next step in handheld thermography, pairing a dependable thermal sensor with a built-in visual camera. Thanks to SuperIR technology, thermal resolution is boosted from 96×96 px (Thermal) to a full 240×240 px (SuperIR), giving detailed thermal images that make faults and anomalies stand out straight away.

Sharp images and advanced analysis

Unlike the entry-level models, the ECO-V version offers Fusion mode, which overlays the detail from the visual camera (640×480 px) on the thermal image. This makes it easy to read labels, identify components and find your bearings during an inspection. With a frame rate of 25 Hz, the image is smooth and judder-free, ideal for quick scans of electrical panels or plumbing systems.

Built for the field

Don’t let the size fool you: the ECO-V is built to take punishment. Rated IP54 and drop-tested to 2 metres, it is the right tool for building sites and industrial environments. The built-in battery gives up to 8 hours of continuous operation, letting you cover a full working day on a single charge.


Greater thermal clarity with SuperIR

SuperIR ECO-V HikMicro
Fitted with HIKMICRO SuperIR image enhancement technology, it raises thermal image resolution from 96 × 96 (9,216 pixels) to 240 x 240 (57,600 pixels) in live view, with a fast 25 Hz frame rate and photo capture.

Image modes

HikMicro ECO-V mode
Switch between several image modes (thermal, visual, PIP, fusion or fusion) and save visual and thermal images at the same time with a single click.

Accurate, full-screen temperature measurement

Precisione punti Eco-V HikMicro
Full-screen radiometric image capture and automatic tracking of the maximum/minimum/centre points, so temperature anomalies stand out at a glance.

50° wide-angle lens

Grandangolo Eco-V HikMicro
The 50° wide angle lets you scan large areas quickly to find problems such as air infiltration, water leaks and insulation faults.

Durable and rugged

Sicurezza test Eco-V HikMicro
The body is rated IP54, passes severe drop tests to 2 metres (6.56 feet) and comes with a three-year warranty.

Typical applications
  • Electrical and industrial maintenance: Immediate detection of overloads on circuit breakers, distribution boards, cables and terminal blocks before a fault occurs. Temperature monitoring of transformers and electric motors to prevent fires or machine downtime. Checking oxidised or loose contacts that generate abnormal heat.
  • Plumbing and HVAC (heating/cooling): Locating water leaks in buried pipework or underfloor heating systems. Checking correct water flow through radiators and bleeding off air pockets. Checking the operation of evaporators and condensers in AC systems.
  • Building and energy diagnostics: Finding poorly insulated areas that waste energy and push up bills. Detecting hidden damp behind walls or ceilings that could lead to mould. Checking the thermal seal of windows and doors to get rid of cold draughts.
  • Automotive and mechanical: Checking for faults in the cooling system, radiators or exhaust leaks. Checking for excessive friction or abnormal overheating on rotating mechanical parts. Finding short circuits or electrical leakage in vehicle wiring.
  • Renewable energy: Quick identification of “hot spots” on solar panels, which point to faulty or damaged cells.
Technical specifications
  • Extras: Class II laser pointer and built-in LED torch
