Standalone pocket thermography camera — thermal, visual and reporting in one 218 g body
The HIKMICRO Pocket2 is a complete thermal inspection tool that does not depend on a phone. A 256 × 192 thermal detector and an 8 MP visual camera are combined on a 3.5" touchscreen, with 16 GB of onboard storage for around 60,000 radiometric images, an LED work light and Wi-Fi for sending images straight off the camera. At 218 g and 138.5 mm long it fits in a jacket pocket, which is the point: it is with you when you find the fault, not back in the van.
Key features
-
256 × 192 VOx detector — 49,152 measurement points with NETD < 40 mK for clear separation of small temperature differences
-
Works standalone — no phone, no app and no cable needed to inspect, measure and store results
-
3.5" touchscreen, 640 × 480 — one-tap level and span, plus auto and manual modes, so you can tune the image while standing at the panel
-
8 MP visual camera with fusion and PIP — thermal, optical, fusion and picture-in-picture modes make the hotspot easy to place in the real scene for a report
-
Wide 50° × 37.2° fixed-focus lens — scans walls, ceilings and full switchboards in a single frame from 0.3 m upwards
-
−20 °C to 400 °C measurement range — accuracy max. (±2 °C, ±2 %), with high-temperature audible and visual alarm
-
On-camera corrections — emissivity from 0.01 to 1.0 or from the material list, plus reflected-temperature and transmission compensation, so the reading is right before you leave site
-
16 GB internal storage — approx. 60,000 radiometric JPEGs with measurement data retained, MP4 video, plus voice and text notes on files
-
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth — share images in real time to HIKMICRO Viewer, analyse and generate reports in HIKMICRO Analyzer on PC
-
LED work light and 1.0–4.0× continuous digital zoom — usable in dark plant rooms and crawl spaces
-
Built for site work — IP54, 2 m drop test, 4 hours continuous runtime, 1/4"-20 tripod thread
Typical applications
- Electrical switchboards, breakers, busbars and terminations
- Preventive maintenance on motors, bearings, pumps and drives
- HVAC commissioning and fault finding
- Building inspection — insulation, thermal bridges, air leakage
- Underfloor heating and concealed pipework tracing
- Damp, leak and water ingress surveys
- Solar PV panel and inverter inspection
- Documented condition reports for clients and insurers
