Bullard NXT User Manual

Thank you and congratulations on your purchase
of the Bullard NXT
The Bullard NXT offers numeric and bar temperature measurement as well as
automatic tri-color Super Red Hot (SRH) high heat colorization in all modes of
operation. Optionally, if so equipped, digital video recording (DVR) also operates
in all modes. Depending on your unit's configuration, additional optional features
are available in TI BASIC PLUS mode, including Electronic Thermal Throttle
manual colorization and 2X / 4X digital zoom.
The benefits of using thermal imaging technology as a firefighting tool encompass
nearly every aspect of a firefighter's job. Thermal imaging is not, however, a
technology designed to replace current firefighting tactics. Rather, it is a tool that
allows the firefighter to be more effective and make better decisions. Some of the
many uses for your Bullard NXT Thermal Imager include:
• Search and rescue
• Scene assessment
• Locating the seat of the fire
• Determining the spread of the fire
• Locating hot spots
• Identifying potential flashover situations
• Determining ventilation points
• Determining entry and exit points
• Overhaul
• Hazmat
• Wildland firefighting
• Incident investigation
• Training
