GigE Vision Camera XGS12000

The ME2S GigE Vision Camera series is an industrial vision camera, with a GigE Vision interface. GigE is the most common interface for cameras in traditional machine vision applications. The GigE Vision Camera series is interesting for you when your application complies with the following conditions:
-    A compact high resolution global shutter camera
-    Maximum cable length of 100 meters
-    Inexpensive and easy installation of cables
-    Only one cable is required to connect the industrial camera
-    advanced image processing features

If more details are required, the manual of the ME2S GigE Vision camera can be consulted.

MTBF, warranty & product life cycle

Each year, Daheng Imaging produces more than 100.000 industrial cameras according to the highest quality standards. The mean time between failure (MTBF) is more than 400.000 hours (45 years, 24/7). The industrial cameras are certified by TÜV Rheinland and have a 3 year warranty. After market introduction, every camera model is available for at least 7 years. Most cameras have a much longer product life cycle. For more information about our product life cycle management, check this article.

Monochrome industrial camera

A black and white camera, also known as a monochrome camera, offers advantages in a variety of applications. While the market for security focuses on color cameras, the industrial market utilizes the advantages of black and white cameras. Black and white cameras are very light sensitive, provide sharp images and reduces data compared to color. This makes it ideal for image processing. By selecting the optimal lighting color and lens filter, product characteristics can be highlighted. Enabling the creation of high-resolution images with high contrast using a monochrome cameras.

Industrial camera with PoE

Power over Ethernet (PoE) for GigE is designed to provide both power and data communication over a standard Ethernet cable. This reduces the amount of cables and installation time, in applications that do not require a hardware trigger or I/O. When I/O is required in an application, we advise supplying the camera via a I/O connector. The cameras power usage is larger when using Power over Ethernet than via the I/O connector. The camera will generate extra heat when using PoE. A PoE GigE camera is larger than the version without PoE. An extra PCB is needed to separate the power of the Ethernet signal, and to convert the voltage to a lower voltage. Extra hardware is needed, which makes it more expensive than the version without PoE. The advantage of PoE is that installation is easier because less cables are required.
