Explosion Protection
The ExCam Series has been designed for use in hazardous areas and it is certified according to European regulations (ATEX) as well
as international ones (IECEx). The cameras certification comprises ATEX group I (mining) with a low risk of mechanical threat as well
as ATEX group II for zone 1, 2 as well as 21 and 22 including the explosion groups IIC / IIIC with a high risk of mechanical threat. In
accordance with the requirements of the impact and free-fall tests (DIN EN 60079: 0 2012), the housings are suitable for fix and port-
able applications!
Media Resistance and Sealings
Due to high-quality materials used for the ExCam IP135x it meets the requirements of a comprehensive media resistance list! It is also
possible to freely select different stainless steel alloys to reflect the best execution for the application. Even a coating or powder coat-
ing of the housing is feasible to realize individual media resistance requirements. The particularly designed GYLON (PTFE) flat sealing
does not only ensure the housing to be watertight (IP68) but also supports the resistance towards several chemicals. The extremely
robust and scratch-proof as well as high-impact resistant borosilicate glass fits perfectly into the high-quality materials of the housing
body.
Mining
As one of the first flameproof camera protection systems, the ExCam IP135x series meets all mining requirements (environments
susceptible of fire damps) and is certified according to ATEX/IECEx for equipment group I M2 (Mb). If the housing series is used in in
mining environments with a low risk of mechanical damages it is even not necessary to equip the housing with an additional device in
order to protect the borosilicate glass! As a result, the ExCam Series allows for the first time a usage of stationary as well as portable
surveillance systems underground.
Temperatures
Also with regard to the allowed ambient temperatures the ExCam Series sets new standards.
The temperature limits with integrated heater or equipped with an active cooling systems are -60° C and +75° C
Using active cooling, even high-end cameras can be used at high ambient temperatures!
The ExCam Series consists of different video cameras that are approved for dust and gas explosion risk zones, as well as mining, in accordance
with the EU Directive 94/9/EC (ATEX) and the IECEx Schema.
The ExCam Series is the world´s smallest explosion proof camera system in its class. The main advantage lies in the modular build up: vari-
ous different housings and electronic parts make it easy to assemble explosion proof cameras that suit your particular needs. The ExCam Series
consist of analogue cameras with varifocal lenses, motor-zoom cameras with infrared cut filter and digital network cameras with a resolution of
more then 1920x1080 pixel (FullHD).
