System Overview
Extreme Environment Ready
The EX65 Explosion Protected Camera includes a camera
and lens installed and pre-wired into an electropolished
316L stainless steel housing offering excellent corrosion
protection. For less corrosive environments, an anodized
aluminum configuration is also available. The EX65 holds
the most common explosion-protected certifications for
guaranteed safe operation in explosive environments and
also NEMA 4X and IP67 ratings for wet locations. For
operation in areas prone to vibration, the EX65 has been
tested to IEC standards for vibration and shock.
Integrated Junction Box
The integrated junction box allows for easy connections to
the terminal block for power and alarm outputs. Video is
available via a BNC connector or ST fiber connector
eliminating the need for a costly external junction box.
The alarm-out can be used for switching on external
illuminators and can trigger events if motion is detected.
In addition, there is sufficient room for the UTP module or
extra wiring if multiple cameras or illuminators are daisy
chained together.
Ease of Installation
The EX65 features one-piece installation and an integrated
junction box for easy mounting and wiring. The EX65 is
versatile enough to mount in multiple applications and
features remote camera configuration via a standard video
cable (Bilinx).
Detail in Extreme Lighting
Cameras in industrial applications must overcome the
challenge of providing a detailed image when lighting
varies across the scene, such as the dark corners and the
bright open areas on the deck of an offshore oil rig. To
produce a clear picture in these conditions and to reveal
details previously unseen, the EX65 combines 20-bit
image processing with wide dynamic range. 20-bit image
processing simultaneously captures the detail in both
bright highlights and in deep shadows. The wide dynamic
range, then, ensures that the camera delivers excellent
contrast in the bright areas and details in the dark areas.
2X-Dynamic and SmartBLC
Using 2X-Dynamic technology, pixel-by-pixel analysis
provides the user with the most detailed information. Turn
on SmartBLC to automatically compensate the image
without the need for complicated set-up or without
compromising dynamic range.
Detail Enhancement
Features such as Autoblack and Sharpness further
improve the details in a scene, pixel by pixel.
Day/Night Mode
The day/night mode provides enhanced night viewing by
increasing the IR sensitivity. The IR filter switches from
color to monochrome automatically by sensing the
illumination level. The filter can also be switched manually
via the Bilinx coaxial control interface. An internal
through-the-lens IR detector enhances the monochrome
mode stability, as it prevents reverting to the color mode
when IR illumination is dominant. IR contrast is also
measured and used to handle reflected IR light in outdoor
scenes.
Bilinx Technology
Bilinx is a bidirectional communication capability
embedded in the video signal of the EX65. Technicians
can check status, change camera settings, and update
firmware from virtually anywhere along the video cable.
Bilinx reduces service and installation time, provides for
more accurate set-up and adjustment, and improves
overall performance. In addition, Bilinx uses the standard
video cable to transmit alarm and status messages,
providing superior performance without additional
installation steps.
Video Motion Detection
The built-in video motion detector allows you to select a
programmable area with individual thresholds. The global
scene change detector minimizes false alarms caused by
sudden lighting condition changes, such as switching on
or off the indoor or security lighting. When motion is
detected, alarms can be displayed in the video signal, the
output relay can be closed or an alarm message can be
transmitted via Bilinx.
SensUp Dynamic
By increasing the integration time up to 10 times on the
CCD, the effective sensitivity in low light is dramatically
enhanced. This is especially useful when relying only on
moonlight for illumination.
Transmission Versatility
Enjoy the convenience of having video transmission
options. A standard video-out via a BNC connector is
accessible in the junction box with enough room for the
optional UTP module. A multimode fiber optic video out
configuration is also available via the integrated module;
conveniently located in the junction box for quick
connection to a fiber network via an ST connector.
Wide Temperature Range
Designed with the harshest conditions in mind, the EX65
welcomes deployment in the toughest areas on the planet
including the subzero conditions found in the far north or
the scorching heat found in hostile deserts. The
impressive –50°C to +60°C (–58°F to +140°F)
temperature range is standard on all aluminum models.
