Working in hazardous environments such as offshore, onshore, marine, and heavy industrial food processing plants, oil and gas facilities, chemical sites, oil depots, and ship tanks, expose the crew to a high risk for explosion. In spite of all precautionary measures and use of protective gear for your employees, a misstep could escalate to a serious fatality very easily in such hazardous environments. Explosion proof PTZ camera is a complete solution to counter these industry limitations. In this guide, our experts explain its role and importance in modern industries with hazardous environments.
Why do you need an Explosion-Proof PTZ Camera?
As mentioned before, the explosion-proof cameras are designed to resist the harsh industrial conditions. Unlike standard static security cameras, PTZ (Pan/Tilt/Zoom)explosion-proof cameras give you a 360° view of the workplace. Beside surveillance, the key feature of these cameras is that they are explosion-proof, that is, they contain the sparks produced by any mechanical issues inside the wire, without allowing it to come in contact with the outside atmosphere. Thus, these cameras significantly reduce the risk of explosions in volatile environments due to electric malfunctions and optimise workplace productivity.
Variants in Explosion-Proof PTZ Cameras
SharpEagle designed PTZ cameras in two variants with features tailored for target specific industry concerns.
The Explosion-Proof PTZ camera boasts ATEX certification and infrared night vision. Designed for continuous surveillance in areas prone to explosive gases or dust, this camera features a long battery life suitable for round-the-clock operations. It also includes an intelligent defroster and a symmetrical design that enhance both its functionality and integration into workplace operations. Equipped with pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities, it allows operators to effectively monitor critical areas within hazardous environments.
The SharpEagle Explosion-Proof PTZ Type Dome Camera is specifically engineered for challenging environments such as oil refineries, onshore/offshore rigs, and petrochemical plants. This camera is built to withstand severe conditions and carries certifications for explosion-proof, dust-proof, waterproof, and rust-proof qualities, making it suitable for Zones 1, 2, 21, and 22. With corrosion-resistant and anti-fog features, it delivers high-quality footage even in the most demanding situations. Ideal for locations with explosive mixtures and hazardous conditions, such as oil fields, chemical plants, ports, and oil storage facilities, it serves a broad range of industries effectively.
Key Features of an Explosion-Proof PTZ Camera
1. Resistant To Harsh Weather Conditions
From ex-proof digital cameras to ex-proof CCTV cameras, the SharpEagle range is designed to sustain and resilient to survive natural elements such as humidity, high temperature, and pressure. Thus, despite the harsh weather conditions, the ex-proof PTZ camera system will work effectively and seamlessly.
2. Easy Access and Monitoring
You can install the ex-proof PTZ camera system anywhere you want to monitor for tracking your employee’s activities and movements. The ex-proof camera helps the managers in monitoring the crew operations in real-time, allowing them to take an immediate call in case of a mishap or discrepancy.
3. Tilting or Panning
Explosion-proof PTZ cameras are known as ‘speed domes.’ The reason being they can tilt or pan quickly in different directions. Further, they are user-friendly and can move accurately even when focused on objects located at a distance.
4. Night Vision
Most of the time, industrial locations have poor lighting. This makes proper surveillance difficult since sufficient lighting conditions are critical to capture high-quality images. With explosion-proof PTZ cameras, capturing images at night, in poor light, or even in total darkness has now become possible for more efficient and uninterrupted operations.
5. Auto-Focus
Explosion-proof PTZ cameras comprise of the in-built autofocus system. This will help the managers autofocus on suspicious areas or target objects. As the system is designed in such a way that it automatically senses the area or object they should focus on; these cameras quickly shift focus while matching the system’s speed of the tilt and pan.
Apart from ease of installation with various mounting options and configurations, explosion-proof PTZ cameras have additional benefits as well. Security features like data encryption and support for real-time intrusion detection, face detection, and unauthorised loitering detection make it a must-have tool for hazardous industries.
