Advanced Marine Surveillance and Navigation
The FLIR Systems M400 is a high-performance multi-sensor thermal camera designed for marine applications, providing exceptional target identification in both short and long-range conditions. Engineered for demanding environments, this camera features a 640x480 thermal sensor, HD low-light color camera, and an integrated LED spotlight to enhance visibility in total darkness. The M400’s gyro-stabilized pan-and-tilt design ensures steady viewing, even in rough sea conditions, making it an indispensable tool for enhanced navigation and situational awareness.
High-Precision Thermal and Optical Imaging
Equipped with FLIR’s Digital Detail Enhancement (DDE) technology, the M400 delivers sharp, high-contrast thermal images, even in extreme temperature variations. Its continuous optical thermal zoom lens (1x to 4x) allows users to detect vessels, obstacles, and other potential hazards at extended distances. Additionally, the integrated HD color camera with a 30x optical zoom provides detailed daytime and low-light imaging, ensuring superior situational awareness.
Gyro-Stabilized Performance for Harsh Marine Conditions
Designed to withstand demanding marine conditions, the M400 is housed in a rugged, waterproof gimbal enclosure with 360° continuous pan and ±90° tilt capabilities. Its active gyrostabilization ensures smooth and steady imaging, even in turbulent waters.
Integrated LED Spotlight for Enhanced Visibility
A built-in high-intensity LED spotlight with a 5° divergence angle and 580-lumen output provides additional illumination for enhanced target identification and improved nighttime navigation.
Seamless Integration with Marine Navigation Systems
The M400 supports multiple integration options, including IP control via FLIR’s Joystick Control Unit (JCU2), PC, and web browser interfaces. It is compatible with leading multifunction navigation displays through the Nexus SDK and FLIR Sensors Manager. Additional support for RS-485/422 serial control (Pelco D) and NMEA 0183 serial communication enables radar tracking and seamless system interoperability.

Shipping
We ship worldwide from the United States. Rates are calculated at checkout based on destination and package weight. Some items include free shipping, which will show automatically. Not every product is eligible for international shipping; checkout will confirm eligibility. We do not ship to PO Boxes except through USPS, and not all packages qualify.
Processing and dispatch
Most orders are verified, packed, and handed to the carrier within 1 to 2 business days. Some products may need extra handling time or ship directly from the manufacturer. For certain international orders, inventory transfers between warehouses may add time. If any delay is expected, we will let you know the dispatch date.
Delivery and tracking
Deliveries are handled by trusted carriers such as USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL. Estimated arrival times appear at checkout and depend on your location and the service you choose. These are estimates and can be affected by customs or carrier disruptions. A shipping confirmation with a tracking link is emailed when your order ships, and tracking may take up to 24 hours to update. You can also view tracking in your account.
Duties, taxes, and support
International customers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, and fees charged by the destination country. If these charges are refused and a shipment returns to us, the carrier’s return cost and any re-entry customs fees will be deducted from the refund. If your order is late or you need help, contact cs@qualityboatparts.com and we will assist you.
Quality Boat Parts is a reseller. Many items include a manufacturer’s warranty, and all warranty service is handled directly by the manufacturer. We do not manage or administer warranty claims on behalf of customers.
Warranty terms, coverage, and duration are set by each manufacturer. Issues involving defects, repairs, or replacements must be addressed with the manufacturer’s support team. When available, the warranty period is listed on the product page. If it is not shown, contact us or the manufacturer for details before purchasing.
To start a claim, the customer must contact the manufacturer and follow their process. Keep your proof of purchase and original packaging, and register the product if the manufacturer requires it, as these are often needed for warranty service.
