KEMP, Texas, Oct. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Larson Electronics, a Texas-based company with over 40 years of experience spearheading the industrial lighting and surveillance camera sector, announced the release of an explosion proof analog portable observation camera with a day/night infrared LED array. This 1080p infrared inspection camera is operated remotely from a centralized control room and has a fixed lens configuration with a 3.6mm 90° lens to capture large areas.

The EXPCMR-ALG-1080P-1227 explosion proof high definition analog camera from Larson Electronics is an inspection camera that can be used for remote observation in hazardous locations. The camera will automatically switch over to IR mode when lux levels drop below a preset level. This allows operators to have up to 50 of visibility in the dark. Link-up with the camera is achieved via customer provided coax cable with BNC connector through a 3/4" NPT. The cable is ran back to the customer provided DVR system, mounted outside the hazardous location. The included adjustable flat surface bracket has two set screws on the bracket, allowing operators to loosen the mounting bracket, adjust the cameras tilt orientation, and retighten to hold the camera in position.

The EXPCMR-ALG-1080P-1227 is a durable explosion proof camera that allows operators to see live feed from inside tanks, reactors, vessels or other hazardous observation locations, from a centralized control room. The remote observation not only saves time and money but protects workers from having to enter hazardous locations. This 1080p analog camera features an infrared LED array to allow for low light and up to 50-feet of nighttime visibility with an automatic switchover to IR mode when light goes below the present level.

The infrared cutoff filter removal transmits images with zero latency to HD resolution through a customer-provided metal clad coax cable connected to remote mount DVR systems. The camera itself features one lux sensitivity, built-in color CCD camera with a 1/3-inch CCD sensor and a two-wire transmitter. The camera lens has a viewing angle between 28˚ and 60˚ with a minimum lens-to-object distance of 3.15 inches.

The EXPCMR-ALG-1080P-1227 operates on 120/240V AC 50/60 Hz universal voltage and includes terminal strips. The camera housing is made of pressure-resistant 316 stainless-steel and weighs just under 4.5 pounds – conveniently lightweight and comes with an adjustable flat surface bracket and two screw for easy mounting.
