Flir Scion PTM336/366

• Boson thermal core: The FLIR Boson sensor delivers a clean, responsive thermal image that helps users pick out people, vehicles, and heat signatures quickly in darkness, smoke, haze, or difficult weather.
• 60 Hz refresh rate: A fast refresh rate keeps motion looking smooth during scanning, tracking, and observation, which is especially useful when following moving subjects or working from a vehicle.
• HD LCD display: The 1280x960 display presents the thermal image with enough detail for comfortable viewing over longer sessions, making target recognition and scene interpretation easier.
• Recording and Wi-Fi connectivity: Built-in image capture, video recording, and wireless connectivity make it easier to document incidents, review observations later, and share thermal footage when coordination matters.
• Rugged field construction: Waterproof, fogproof, nitrogen-filled construction and operation from -40℃ - 70℃ help the monocular stay dependable in demanding outdoor and professional use.

About the Flir Scion PTM Series

The Flir Scion PTM Series was introduced on January 22, 2019 as a handheld thermal monocular family developed for public safety professionals. It replaced FLIR’s earlier H-series monocular thermal cameras and was built around FLIR Boson thermal cores, giving the series a strong focus on dependable thermal detection, smooth real-time viewing, and practical field recording. The platform was designed for law-enforcement thermal surveillance, including pursuits, evidence recovery, and search-and-rescue work, where fast detection matters more than visible-light detail.

Across the range, Scion PTM models combine a rugged IP67-rated housing with features that support operational use rather than simple observation. The series supports encrypted wireless thermal video streaming and connectivity with FLIR TruWITNESS, while geotagged still images and video can be stored internally or on a microSD card. Depending on model, the line was offered with 320 × 256 and 640 × 512 detector options and multiple lens choices, allowing users to balance field of view and reach. Picture-in-picture zoom, GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth round out a series built for handheld thermal imaging in professional surveillance and search tasks.

About the Flir Scion PTM336/366

The Flir Scion PTM336/366 is a handheld thermal monocular configured for users who need a wide, easy-to-read thermal view for scanning, locating, and documenting heat sources in the field. Its 320x240 VOx uncooled sensor with 12.00 μm pixel pitch and 60.00 Hz refresh rate is tuned for responsive observation, so panning across terrain or following movement feels natural rather than choppy. With a 25.00 mm objective lens and a detection range of 1000.00 m, it is suited to finding heat signatures at distance while still keeping enough field coverage for general surveillance and search work.

The optical layout starts at 1.00 x and reaches 2.60 x maximum magnification, giving the user a straightforward balance between situational awareness and closer inspection. A 9.00 ° field of view helps with area scanning, while central focusing allows quick adjustment as observation distances change. The HD LCD display with 1280x960 resolution presents the thermal image clearly for extended viewing, and onboard still-image capture plus video recording make the monocular useful for evidence collection, reporting, and post-event review.

In practical use, the Scion PTM336/366 is built for hard service. Its waterproof, fogproof, nitrogen-filled housing, tripod adaptability, compass, Wi-Fi connectivity, and automatic shut-off all support field deployment in demanding conditions. Power comes from CR123A batteries, with a stated battery life of 4.50 h, giving the unit a simple and widely available power solution for mobile thermal observation.

About Flir

FLIR Systems was established in 1978 to develop infrared thermal imaging systems for airborne applications. The company was headquartered in Wilsonville, Oregon, United States, and built its reputation around thermal imaging and sensing systems for commercial, industrial, and government use. In this field, FLIR became especially well known for products that detect infrared energy emitted as heat by people, vehicles, structures, and materials, making thermal imaging practical across surveillance, inspection, and outdoor observation.

Over time, FLIR expanded its expertise through acquisitions including Agema of Sweden in 1998, Inframetrics in 1999, and Indigo Systems in 2003. Its outdoor portfolio included the Scout family of handheld thermal monoculars, while later professional devices such as the Scion series extended that experience into public safety applications. In 2021, Teledyne Technologies acquired FLIR, bringing the brand into a broader sensing and imaging group while preserving its strong association with thermal imaging equipment.
