19.  FEMA Grant for Purchase of Thermal Imaging Cameras Attach 19

 

The Fire Department has four older helmet mounted thermal imaging cameras. The technology of the cameras is dated. The vendor of the existing helmets no longer produces the helmet model and repair of current units is difficult and expensive. Current units are requiring an increasing amount of maintenance and repair with unit(s) out-of-service for prolonged periods of time. This technology provides fire fighters with the upper hand in low visibility conditions, which allows personnel to locate fire victims and identify hot spots.
