New from the video surveillance product manufacturer Hanwha Vision are bi-spectrum early fire detection cameras. The products combine dual thermal radiometry and visible imaging lenses for fire detection, temperature monitoring, and surveillance.ย They’re for use in industrial facilities, data centres and electric vehicle charging stations, for identifying potential fire hazards the makers say.
Fires can cause severe and costly property damage and life-threatening situations. The TNM-C2712TDR and TNM-C2722TDR models use video analytics to detect flames through the visible channel, while the thermal sensor detects temperature changes. This dual-layered detection provides flame and temperature alerts, allowing users to act before a fire spreads.
Real-time temperature monitoring enables equipment maintenance. With support for up to two regions of interest, users can track minimum, maximum, and average temperature values, enabling event rule configurations. The cameras support a temperature detection range of minus 10 to 450 degrees C. Users can set pre-defined temperature thresholds, triggering alarms when variations exceed set limits.
With a QVGA (160×120) thermal detector and wide-angle lenses, 95 degrees for TNM-C2712TDR and 57 degrees for TNM-C2722TDR, these cameras provide coverage for short to medium-range monitoring, up to seven and 15 metres respectively. The ability to capture both visible and thermal images at the same time offers situational awareness, even in challenging conditions such as darkness, fog, or smoke, according to the company.
Designed for integration into security and industrial monitoring systems, these bi-spectrum cameras support the MQTT protocol for working with SCADA systems, for communication with industrial automation and control networks. Temperature data can be accessed with Hanwha Visionโs SUNAPI protocol, for inter-operability with various software platforms, including Wisenet SSM, Wisenet WAVE, and other, third-party VMS (video management software).
The models are suitable for indoor and outdoor install, the firm says.ย Visit https://hanwhavision.eu.
