Principles of Operation :
MSA’s Video Capture is a video recording system for EVOLUTION 5000 Series Thermal Imaging Cameras. It offers fast and simple video recording of the original screen for documentation and training purposes. The small and easy to use stand alone unit can be mounted and removed on any EVOLUTION 5000 Series Thermal Imaging Camera within seconds. A new camera is not required to use this feature.
Using a standard flash memory card [RS-MMC] this system is easy to use. With a card reader the video clips can be downloaded to a computer, stored, viewed and followed up for documentation. The system offers up to 2 hours recording capability, providing the user with a complete overview of the environment and incident that the camera was used in.
The Video Capture System uses the same housing as the EVOLUTION Transmitter, offering the same high durability. The Video Capture System uses the same Li-Ion rechargeable battery and charger used in whole EVOLUTION 5000 Series of Thermal Imaging Camera.

Low Light

Product Information :
The Video Capture System (VCS) records the complete scene that the TIC sees. The system is capable of recording up to two hours of video, virtually eliminating the risk of a user missing critical information. The VCS is ideal for training and documentation purposes. The recorded information is stored on a standard reduced size multi media card that has a 512MB capacity. A standard card reader connects into PC/Laptop to simply download the recorded information. Still pictures can be captured from the video footage using available software programs like “Print Screen.”

Product Information :
Introducing the new Evolution 5200 Fire Service Thermal Imaging Camera - with Next Generation Performance and New Exclusive Features available only from MSA

High Performance Safety :
• 320 degrees F High Sense Mode Range - gives high image definition over the widest temperature range of any Fire Service TIC
• Twice the Low Sensitivity in the 320o to +1000oF range, compared to all other Fire Service TICs - for great imaging!
It all adds up to the highest ISDR* of any Fire Service TIC - with clearer, sharper, more detailed images over the entire temp range.
*Instantaneous Scene Dynamic Range is the combined value of a sensor's sensitivity and temperature range to determine the number of temperature differences that can be seen at any given instant.

Low Cost - High Value :
As Fire Service TICs become more affordable, MSA takes the lead by adding new features and increasing performance - while lowering both initial and lifetime costs. The increased value of MSA TICs is realized through expanded TIC uses, time saved and SAFETY - every day!

Also - Only From MSA:
• Instant On
• Instant Mode Switching
• Warnings on all Shut Downs
• Shutter Indicator
• Temp Bar and Digital Temp
• 15% Low Sense Activation

Exclusive Feature :
New Heat Seeker PLUS - now providing image detail shading
Comparison of Fire Service TIC Performance
High and Low Sensitivity
Most TICs generate thermal images in either High Sense or Low Sense modes, depending on the temperature of the scene. High Sense mode delivers the best image quality - but has a limited temperature range. Low Sense mode trades image quality for a wider temp range to keep the TIC working in high heat.

Evolution 5200 Performance :
Only MSA delivers High Sense image quality up to 320oF, the range that 80% of the time matches the temperature range in most structural fires. In addition, only MSA delivers increased sensitivity in Low Sense mode with better high temperature image quality. The shaded color in both High and Low Sense is Evolution 5200's new Heat Seeker PLUS.

Competitive Performance :
The limited High Sense temperature range on competitive TICs means that image quality is lost sooner. Low Sense then becomes the standard operating mode, using only a fraction of the total available sensitivity. In addition, competitive TICs lack Heat Seeking color in High Sense mode,an important tool to determine the presence and direction of the fire.

• Limited Temp Range in High Sense
• Temp Range is below 300oF
• Some models have limited High Sense
• No Heat Seeking Color in High Sense
• Limited Sensitivity in Low Sense

New Evolution 5200 Performance
• Widest High Sense Temp Range
• Highest Low Sensitivity
• Heat Seeker PLUS color detail

New from MSA - Reflective Label ID Kits
These HIGHLY REFLECTIVE Write-On Labels will make TIC accountability easier - and provide additional reflectivity on the top and sides of your Evolution 5200. Each Label Kit contains five sets of four labels in bright red, orange, yellow, green and blue. Labels are easily written on with a permanent marker. (MSA P/N 10062184)
