BCS Thermal & Optical IP Camera BCS-L-TIP242FR3L3-THT-Ai1(0403) – 256x192 Thermal, 2MP Visible, AI Fire Detection, IP67, PoE

Industrial sites face a dual challenge: detecting temperature anomalies before they escalate into fires, and capturing clear visual evidence in complete darkness or challenging weather. The BCS-L-TIP242FR3L3-THT-Ai1(0403) thermal IP camera solves both with a dual-sensor design that pairs a 256x192 thermal imager with a 2MP visible-light sensor, delivering reliable monitoring around the clock.

Who is it for

This camera is built for demanding environments such as warehouses, manufacturing plants, electrical substations, and perimeter security. It suits safety managers, facility operators, and security integrators who need early fire detection, precise temperature monitoring, and AI-driven intrusion alerts in a single rugged device.

Main features

• Dual-sensor imaging: 256x192 thermal sensor (NETD < 40 mK) and 2MP (1920x1080) visible sensor with 120dB True WDR for clear images in high-contrast scenes.
• Temperature measurement from -20°C to +550°C with accuracy of ±2°C or ±2%, enabling early overheating detection.
• Built-in AI analytics: fire detection, temperature anomaly alerts, human/vehicle classification, line crossing, and intrusion detection reduce false alarms.
• IR illumination up to 30 meters ensures visible-light performance in total darkness.
• IP67-rated weatherproof housing withstands rain, dust, and extreme temperatures, making it suitable for outdoor installation.
• Flexible power options: DC 12V or PoE (802.3af) simplify wiring and reduce installation costs.
• Local storage via MicroSD card slot (up to 256GB) ensures recording continuity even during network outages.
• ONVIF compliance (Profiles S, G, T) guarantees compatibility with major VMS platforms.

Tips

For optimal fire detection, position the camera with an unobstructed view of critical equipment. Use the temperature anomaly alerts to trigger automatic notifications and integrate with your existing alarm system. To maximize storage efficiency, enable H.265 compression and configure event-triggered recording for AI detections.
