Camera Protective Housings
- Light metal housing with protection degree IP54 or IP67
- Suitable for industrial use, protection class compliant plug-in connections
- All-weather, robust metal housing for use in harsh environments
- Protection against mechanical stress
- Dust-proof and splash-proof housing
- Flexibly adaptable to specific requirements
Depending on the measurement and inspection task, thermal imaging cameras are exposed to a wide range of environmental conditions. Dirt, water, climatic and mechanical extremes are major challenges for the sustained precision and reliability of the systems. Based on experience from more than 30 years of thermographic practice, InfraTec has developed protective housings that can be adapted to extremely different situations on site. Users can choose between numerous options: light aluminium constructions or solid stainless steel cases, integrated scavenging air supply or active air cooling, infrared special foil or germanium window, protection for an individual thermal imaging camera or additional protection for a visual camera. In this way, a solution that perfectly suits the conditions relating to the measurement object is achieved.
Protect the Housing From

VarioCAM® High Definition Series with High-quality Light Metal Housing
The uncooled infrared camera series VarioCAM® High Definition is encased in a very sturdy light metal housing. This means that the cameras are protected against mechanical and thermal stress in the various application areas and conditions. The camera is connected exclusively via the sturdy push-pull connector technology (LEMO connector), which prevents an undesired withdrawal or tearing away of the cable connection and additionally guarantees a tight connection to the camera, even in harsh environmental conditions. The high-resolution and very bright colour display for controlling the camera is integrated in light metal housing and adapted to the camera with a stable hinge in order to secure the long-lasting, unrestricted functioning of the camera. The display resolution is precisely adapted to the detector resolution to enable a precisely detailed representation and evaluation of the thermograms. The industrial variants VarioCAM® HD head with their compact light metal housings in accordance with IP67 Standard are particularly suitable for stationary industrial and scientific applications.
