Add stabilized thermal awareness to a compatible marine network with the FLIR M232 9 Hz Pan-and-Tilt Thermal Camera. Its 320 × 240 thermal core, continuous 360° pan range, and 24° × 18° field of view help operators scan nearby water, shorelines, docks, and vessel activity in darkness or low-contrast conditions. Need a compact thermal camera rather than a large dual-payload turret? The M232 delivers H.264 IP video, 4× digital zoom, and NMEA/ONVIF connectivity for supported helm systems.

Integration

The M232 requires a compatible MFD, monitor, or IP-video viewer; it is not a standalone chartplotter, radar, or GPS device. Ethernet carries its video feed, while compatible NMEA 2000 data can support integration and control functions. Verify display video support, network capacity, PoE availability, and control compatibility before installation.

The published approximate detection figures—about 1,500 ft for a person and 0.67 NM for a vessel—are conditional estimates, not guaranteed recognition or detection distances. Thermal performance depends on target heat contrast, humidity, air and water temperature, sea state, rain, spray, range, lens condition, and mounting location.

Before Ordering

Confirm compatible MFD/video support, ONVIF and NMEA requirements, PoE or 12V/24V power method, camera-mount location, full pan-and-tilt clearance, cable routes, and whether 9 Hz video suits the intended operation.
