Explosion Proof Cameras- The Resilient equipment for Oil and Gas industry

What is an explosion proof camera?

Explosion proof cameras are the equipment which are best suited for hazardo=
us explosive areas. These cameras are designed to prevent ignition of the s=
urrounding gases and dust in these environments. They either contain any ex=
plosion within the device, or prevent sparks exiting the device and trigger=
ing an explosion. This means that the camera system will not cause an explo=
sion, however survive explosions outside the enclosure.
Explosive environments can be found in a number of places. Oil and Gas indu=
stry is one among them. Since it involves a risky environment, your camera =
needs to be explosion proof. It holds the certain benefits:

=E2=80=A2 The Explosion proof cameras, especially the stainless steel model=
s are the resilient explosion proof cameras. Their weather resistant stainl=
ess steel casings have a rating of IP67, which makes them absolutely dust-t=
ight and watertight.

=E2=80=A2 Despite their light weight and small dimensions, all cameras are =
designed using the =E2=80=98pressure proof encapsulation=E2=80=99 type of i=
gnition protection; this means that products in pressurised enclosures need=
 no additional monitoring equipment.

=E2=80=A2 Its minimum sensitivity of 0, 0004 makes the cameras so sensitive=
 that it does not need powerful lighting technology. This means that in com=
bination with a 50 watt headlamp, the cameras can replace comparable system=
s with 400 watt xenon lights.

=E2=80=A2 To be considered as an explosive proof, the camera must meet the =
standards identified by ATEX or IECEx. ATEX was created to protect workers =
from explosive risks and provide common standards for all equipments traded=
 within the EU. IECEx is an international standard. These standards define =
the type of environment and the protection level required by the equipment.

The different types of cameras and their benefits available for oil and gas=
 industries are:

=E2=80=A2 Ex compact camera =E2=80=93 it is a small lightweight, modest and=
 a compact camera which makes it easier to be installed in the smallest cor=
ners.

=E2=80=A2 Ex AFZ Camera =E2=80=93 the Ex zoom camera offers day and night i=
nspection.

=E2=80=A2 Ex TIC Camera =E2=80=93 the IP69K protected thermal imaging camer=
a allows surveillance without a light source.

All the cameras hold the benefit of Aluminum and stainless steel and are de=
signed for extreme temperatures. These cameras are shock and vibrant resist=
ant and are signed under the ATEX and IECEX certified zone.

With all this features in hand, you are sure to have continuity and capture=
 details even in the most hazardous areas.
