The EX286 combines pan/tilt, camera and Junction Box in one compact component able to withstand the harshest of environments and requires no maintenance. A compact footprint and proficient system components allow for ease of installation and configuration. It is Ex approved for zone 1 (gas group IIC) and zone 21 (dust) and DNV (Det Norske Veritas) type approved, meaning it has been tested for operation in the most demanding locations, withstanding physical environmental challenges like vibration, humidity, extreme temperature variations and corrosion. Rated to IP 66 the camera station certifies protection from high-pressure water from any direction, including green sea, and guarantees no harmful effects.
The high quality 316 Stainless Steel electro polished EX286 guarantees a balanced centre of gravity, ensuring minimal wear and tear on machined parts, and maximum resilience to environmental exposure and direct sunlight, avoiding heat absorption. Low power consumption combined with the reflective surface has resulted in the lowest surface temperature classification possible, T6.
