KT&C KLU38-L 384x288 LWIR Thermal Block Camera, 17μm, CVBS/BT656/LVDS, 9Hz/30Hz

KLU38-L Spec Sheet

The KT&C KLU38-L LWIR thermal block camera delivers precise infrared imaging in a compact, integration-ready module. Equipped with a 384x288 QVGA uncooled microbolometer sensor (17μm pitch), it captures detailed thermal data across 110,592 pixels with high sensitivity and low NETD. Outputs include CVBS, BT656, and LVDS, supporting both legacy and modern digital pipelines. Factory-selectable 9Hz or 30Hz frame rates ensure regional compliance while providing real-time thermal data. Operating from -30°C to 60°C, with <5-second startup, the KLU38-L is ideal for embedded systems, industrial inspection, UAV payloads, and OEM thermal solutions.
