Redvision has launched a 40x optical zoom RVX40-Series rugged PTZ and dome camera to replace the current 36x zoom model. The new RVX40 has enhanced low light performance and resolution and retains the X-Series’ rugged, outdoor design. It is supplied ready to install as a dome, but can convert into a ball PTZ camera by removing the dome top cover.
The UK manufacturer says that the RVX40-Series uses a quarter-inch CCD sensor with low-light sensitivity and 670TV lines resolution for clear, precise images. It has wiper, IR light and Dual Light (combined infra-red and white light) options. Night-time surveillance is enabled with IR or white light, ultra-efficient, LED illumination. The IR illumination allows covert operation, whereas the white light allows operators to identify, spotlight and track intruders. Each camera has 100 pre-sets, eight tours and up to 24 privacy masks, to meet application and legal requirements.
The RVX40 camera’s 40x optical and 12x digital zoom enables long range scene surveillance. The IR version will provide illumination up to 100m and facial recognition beyond 30m. The Dual Light, IRWL version, also has a 100m illumination range in both light modes and will toggle between IR and white light on alarm activation, pre-sets or manually.
The cameras have a flat, toughened glass window for the camera view. This allows an optional, silicone wiper blade for removing water droplets and dirt. The RVX40 offers 360 degree continuous rotation and when pedestal mounted, is able to see above the horizon, so that no part of its video image is obscured by the camera casing. It is available in a range of colours and finishes to suit site needs and has a choice of mounts and brackets. Visit redvisioncctv.com.
