Congratulations
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Bullard Eclipse LD Thermal Imager. The
Eclipse LD represents a milestone in handheld firefighting thermal imaging, combining
market-leading portability, ease-of-use, and affordability. Designed with high-heat,
impact-resistant engineered polymers and infused with the latest thermal imaging
technology, the Eclipse LD is a powerful firefighting tool.
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 Eclipse LD Thermal Imager include:
