Robust industrial cameras: protection against dust, water and harsh conditions

Area scan cameras

What makes an industrial camera robust? This video shows how industrial cameras cope with dust, water, temperature extremes, shocks and vibrations. It explains how IP ratings work and why components such as the lens tube and cables form part of the documented setup.

A practical outdoor demonstration makes the camera’s protective features visible and easier to understand.
