u CSA and Inmetro certified

u Industry leading IP68 rating

u Integrated wiper

The MIC Series 440 explosion-protected camera has
been designed to offer an extremely reliable, robust,
and high quality surveillance solution for potentially
volatile security applications that demand the very
best performance. Precision engineered to exacting
standards, the range meets the requirements of ATEX
Directive 94/9/EC Exd IIC T6 and CSA Class I, Division
1, Groups CD, Class II, Division 1, Groups EFG, T6 for
safe use in explosive atmospheres such as those found
in oil, gas, chemical processing sites, and
petrochemical refineries.
Rated to an industry leading IP68, the specially
designed camera housing is machined from solid
aluminum. The MIC Series 440 camera ensures
corrosion protection by using two different processes;
first an Alocrom 1200 coating, then a robust polyester
powder paint coating. Alocrom 1200 is a chromate
conversion coating of aluminum, used in the aerospace
and defense industries where a protective layer is
required to improve corrosion resistance. Sealed with
'O'-rings, the MIC Series 440 camera can operate
permanently submerged up to 1 meter (3.3 feet)
underwater by virtue of its design and construction,
suitable for installation in the harshest of

environments. The optically-perfect flat viewing
window and integrated wiper ensure razor sharp
images are captured in even the most demanding
conditions. This allows the MIC Series 440 explosion­protected range to function perfectly in highly
hazardous areas, such as offshore oil rigs.
The use of high-specification motors ensures reliable
operation, while ground-breaking resolver technology
provides pin-point accuracy and affords the user full
360° continuous rotation pan and 240° tilt control.
A choice of true day/night camera modules, offering up
to 36x optical zoom (12x digital), coupled with flexible
upright or inverted mounting capability, allows the
perfect field of view to be achieved every time.
