Kentucky Thermal Institute will help you choose the right camera…the first time
We have the reputation, knowledge, and experience that ensures you are paired with the best camera to suit your needs. KTI has seen students grow out of their infrared cameras quickly and then face the reality of needing to invest more money to upgrade thermal cameras. We would rather see a student grow into their camera as their profession grows. We have witnessed frustrated students with great thermal imaging equipment purchased elsewhere and received it without hands on camera training.
Our team provides full product training with every purchase. When you purchase Equipment with Kentucky Thermal Institute, you are purchasing from a group that is well connected within the industry and can pair you with a person familiar with the equipment you have. Through our close partnership with FLIR and ICI, we can also offer unmatched customer service for your repairs and calibrations.
Equipment
Equipment is very specific to your intended result. We generally break down equipment in these categories, but we highly recommend that you contact us to discuss your specific needs.

Hobbyist / Repair Confirmation
Low resolution imagers can help you choose the coldest items from the meat section at the grocery store or help you confirm an electrical repair was conducted properly. Hobbyist cameras still require a basic level of understanding of the science behind Thermology. Many beginners make mistakes simply by not understanding this technology or its applications.

Acoustic Imaging
Acoustic Imaging uses advanced ultrasonic technology to visualize sound, allows you to detect issues that are otherwise invisible—such as compressed air and gas leaks, electrical partial discharges, and mechanical faults. By converting sound waves into real-time visual images, your acoustic inspections can provide precise location data, enabling fast, non-invasive diagnostics. Our acoustic imaging cameras empower your maintenance team with actionable data to improve performance, lower costs, and extend equipment life.
