The camera is ATEX certified for use in Zone 0 hazardous areas. It can be permanently installed tanks , reactors, production, sump pits and anywhere that permanent monitoring through a camera is necessary. It is a unique device that allows operators to view the process in hazardous zones from a remote location.
We have supplied this camera to special applications that were not suitable for existing explosion-proof cameras.
Recently, the camera was qualified for use in high temperatures. Get in touch with us if you need the updated specifications.
CCTV Camera System
A complete and extremely robust camera system for video signal transmissions inside an Ex Zone 0 hazardous area.
EX Camera Applications:
Video Monitoring of Silos in Zone 0/1/2
Video Monitoring of Pipelines in Zone 0/1/2
Video Monitoring of Tanks in Zone 0/1/2
Video Monitoring of Chemical production in Zone 0/1/2
Video Monitoring of Waste in Zone 0/1/2
Video Monitoring of Hazardous Areas during inspection/Cleaning
Video Monitoring of Event Control in Zone 0/1/2
Video Monitoring of Jet Fuel Stations Zone 0
This camera stands apart from other cameras which might only have the certification required for Zone 1 or 2. The Atex Zone 0 cameras allows users to continually monitor video feed in areas where it was formerly not possible due to hazardous area certification requirements and product limitations. The camera also contains a powerful integrated light and various lenses are available. The camera can work from a 120m distance and has IP 68 protection. The camera control box is able to operate in temperatures ranging from -10 to 40°C while the camera units operate in temperatures between -50 to 60°C
How Atex Camera System Works
The system comprises two parts: the Ex-zone 0 camera and the safe area control box.Similar to an explosionproof camera, the electronics is mounted in a stainless steel enclosure with a glass front powered by an intrinsically safe power supply. As standard, the unit is equipped with a wide angle lens and a high intensity LED light which can be varied in intensity.The control box is located outside the hazardous area and it supplies the camera with intrinsically safe power and controls the light intensity. The video output is PAL and the controller can be equipped with its own integral LCD display.
