AXIS Q1961-TE Thermal Camera
- Polygonal temperature monitoring areas
- Early fire detection analytics
- Spot temperature reading
- Built-in cybersecurity features
- IP66-, IP67-, IK10- and NEMA 4X -rated
Ideal for improving operational efficiency, this halogen-free, thermometric camera lets you remotely monitor temperatures and trigger temperature-based events. Robust and impact-resistant, it offers early fire detection analytics and built-in cybersecurity features.
What’s the temperature?
AXIS Q1961-TE lets you remotely monitor temperatures from -40 °C to 350 °C (-40 °F to 660 °F)*. So, you don’t need to be onsite to know if your equipment is getting close to overheating - you’ll receive a notification if the temperature passes a set threshold, or if it increases or decreases too rapidly. This allows you time to act to avoid unwanted downtime and it enables predictive maintenance planning. AXIS Q1961-TE supports up to 10 configurable polygonal detection areas, making it possible to monitor areas for specific temperature levels. With spot temperature reading, you can click on the image and see the exact temperature in the specific area. Furthermore, through metadata, you’ll have access to temperature statistics.

Detect early signs of fire
In addition to offering powerful analytics capabilities, AXIS Q1961-TE comes with early fire detection preinstalled making it possible to set triggers and get warnings about early signs of fire or potential overheating. With smart filtering, it can disregard uninteresting hot objects such as the warm exhausts of passing work vehicles, so you’ll receive fewer false notifications.

Depend on it - robust and secure
Ideal for installation in harsh environments, this robust temperature measuring camera is highly resistant to corrosion. It offers great reliability and includes built-in cybersecurity features to help prevent unauthorized access and safeguard your system. For instance, Axis Edge Vault protects your Axis device ID and simplifies authorization of Axis products on your network. Plus, it includes a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) that is FIPS 140-2 level 2 certified. Electronic image stabilization (EIS) provides smooth video even in scenes with vibrations. Furthermore, thanks to edge-to-edge technology it’s possible to connect a network speaker to enable audio alarms.
Accuracy of +/- 5°C in 0-120°C. See Datasheet for other temperature ranges.
