Tough, durable and long lasting, 8133 Videotec’s Maximus MPXHD full HD camera can provide effective video surveillance and process control in hazardous areas and harsh settings.

The units can be operated in area where the presence of gases or flammable dust can create a potentially explosive environment. These can be used in materials storage bins or tunnels for example and are also said to be explosion-proof, with pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) capabilities. Certified to ATEX, IECEX, EAC Ex, INMETRO and UL for use in Zone 1 and 2, Group IIC T6 (Gas), and in Zone 21 and 22, Group IIIC T85°C (Dust), the 1080p, 60fps camera incorporates a 30x optical zoom, able to accurately identify small details and broadcast high quality images via Ethernet with H.264/AVC and MJPEG compression (ONVIF Profile-S).

The unit can provide from two to four video streams simultaneously, up to a total of 20Mbps, depending on its configuration. The camera’s day/night feature guarantees high sensitivity in low light environments. Response to the operator’s commands is instantaneous, for a fast and accurate detection of a target in all conditions.
