Analogue rugged PTZ dome

by Mark Rowe

Redvision has launched the RVX20 series of analogue rugged PTZ dome cameras, with 20x optical zoom. The RVX20 is the latest addition to the company’s X-Series range. It joins the 30x zoom, RVX30 analogue model and replaces the 18x zoom RVX18 model.

Paul Hucker, Director of Redvision, says: “Redvision’s X-Series cameras are regarded by many CCTV integrators as the security industry’s benchmark, rugged dome camera. The RVX20 uses Sony, Megapixel, CMOS sensor technology, with improved low-light colour rendition and wide dynamic range. It will dynamically toggle between colour, black and white and day / night modes, to provide optimal images in the most demanding lighting conditions. It also works in conjunction with the modular IR or white-light illumination options.”

The RVX20™ series, designed and made in the UK, can be configured as a dome or PTZ, by adding or removing its cover. An optically-correct, flat window minimises distortion better than a “bubble” type optic and maximizes low-light performance, the makers say. The dome has a silicone wiper to remove rain and surface water, for clear camera visibility outdoors.

Infra-red and white light illuminator options provide night time viewing at up to 150m, the developers say, with facial recognition beyond 40m. Narrow spot and wide flood settings are available, with alarm, pre-set or manual override activation.

The series has 100 programmable pre-sets, eight tours, 24 programmable privacy zones and multiple alarm options. The pre-set and tour technology enables the camera to reach a pre-set position in the correct focus and with ideal light mode settings, during a tour or after an alarm.

The product can view 10 degree above horizontal when pendant mounted, without video clipping. It has 360 degree continuous rotation and an operating temperature range of minus 25 degrees to plus 60 degrees C. Mount options include pedestal, swan, wall and pendant to suit applications. The camera comes in light grey or black as standard, or to order in any RAL colour or marine finish.

The X-Series is used in applications including public space, local authority, hazardous, marine, defence, town centre and rapid deployment.
