The Flir VS290 is an industrial thermal and visual videoscope system designed to help professionals quickly and safely find hidden faults and dangers in difficult-to-access locations. Featuring a 160 × 120 true thermal imager and Flir MSX® (VSC-IR32 and VSC-IR33 probes), VS290 videoscopes give users the power to see and measure invisible hot spots before catastrophic equipment failures can occur. The small, sleek tips allow for easy inspection through tight or confined openings, improving productivity and reducing diagnostic time. The 2-meter side-viewing probe options are CAT IV 600V safety rated—perfect for underground electrical vault inspections. The 1-meter forward-viewing probe is a practical fit for general purpose equipment and building thermal scans. All are versatile tools for the most demanding environments in utility, manufacturing, and building maintenance applications.
Rugged and reliable, this versatile thermal videoscope with a 3.28' (1 m) front viewing probe for general-purpose equipment and building thermal scans. This kit comes with a thermal camera probe with a round tip, a videoscope display, a thermal camera probe, 2 x rechargeable batteries, a battery charger, and an SD card.

Inspect difficult-to access areas safely
Quickly find hidden faults without entering unsafe or hard-to-reach spaces.
- Troubleshoot problems from a safe distance with the 160 × 120 true thermal imager
- Easily maneuver the narrow 1 m field-replaceable camera probe to inspect underground electrical distribution faults, inside large gearboxes, motors, attics, crawl spaces, and other cramped locations
- Instantly recognize the location of a temperature issue with MSX that embosses scene details from the built-in visual camera onto the full thermal image
- Navigate dark environments using the bright LED worklight
Identify, document, and share
Improve workflow and communicate potential issues before they become major problems.
- View findings clearly on the large 3.5" color display and use color alarms (isotherms) to quickly identify problems
- Save images and videos using the included SD memory card then upload to a PC via USB-C cable
- Quickly create reports using thermal studio suite software and share findings with team members to prioritize repairs
Versatile, rugged, and reliable
Use the system in the most demanding environments.
- IP67 camera tips and IP54 base unit and probe provide a high level of protection against dust and water
- Easily replace or interchange the camera probe while in the field
- Conduct electrical inspections safely with CAT IV 600 V-rated VSC-IR32 and VSC-IR33 probes
